apparently someone else couldn't wait to get themselves a set :lol: . I seen the ad for them on his site last week and really do like them myself. I'm not much of a shelfer fan but if I built one these would be on it.

I actually got one of the 3 sets yesterday. I almost waited and I am glad that I did not. I have a set of tecnacrafts that I really might try to sell now....

Very interesting.... and glad to hear that regulars on this board are pleased with the quality. But which wheels are you getting in the auction link, the straight spoke style or the swept style? He shows the straight ones on the RC10, and the swept wheels off the car.

I am pretty sure you are getting the swept style. I actually like the straight ones better, but the swept ones will be nice as well.

Dumb question but it's $98 for 4 wheels?

I bought a couple sets last week. Can't wait to get them. I do have a set of blue ones from them and the quality is really good.

They are the swept style, for 2.2" wheels. The inserts are the same for front and rear. I had to use spacers on the front axles, and the bearings didn't fit as snug as I would have liked, but they mounted up just fine otherwise.

That's true, work has been super busy so not much time to read up as much as I like.

I was able to grab a set of these from Lohas's online store so when I get them in my hot little hands I can do a comparison.

Looks great but they're supposed to be facing the other direction. :wink:
