how many different styles of tecnacraft wheels were made??

everyone post your pics

I think there were only about 6 styles
8 spoke
8 spoke twisted
8 hole
4 spoke split
Mesh
tear drop

There were several applications though.

I don't think this is all of them, there is one set that didn't make the pics

...

I posted a catalog in the scans section last Jan. Not that many pictures but you get an idea as to how many styles. I think Murphy scored a couple of catalogs a year or 2 later editions but not scanned.

Also if you want to see Tecnacraft check out Shodogs collection either in posts here on the forum or on his Tamiya club page.
PS David's wheels above look like jewels, maybe someday I'll find a set.

Shouldnt there be a HUGE Choir singing "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH", when you see that first pic????

Now I see why they are sooo expensive! Shodog has almost all of them!!!

nice collection you got there, showoff. er....ugh..... i mean...... shodog.

This is one of my favorite quotes from Office space.

There is another member Wyattriot77 has an equally impressive collection. I pulled this pic from this thread http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=3554



This guy and mine are the largest collections of these wheels I have seen. It stands to reason that someone out there will have more, I just have yet to come across it.

Hey Jim, looks like Wyatt has a pattern you do not have, have a close look at the set in the bottom left corner...

Well there are 32 complete sets in this thread, that would make a whole bunch of money at 700$ a set on average, that makes more or less 22K

Asso- maybe that's the one that didn't make Sho's pics?


Oh yeah.... awesome collection Sho! Wyatt too if he's lurking.

Your right Asso I don't have the mesh set of buggy wheels but I do have a mesh set of pan car wheels. I don't have all the applications but I do have all the styles. If I remember right, they made quater scale wheels for the Jaco cars. How baddass would that be, a 1/4 scale sprint car with tecnacraft wheels?
