Wheels And all

Post by GBRJ »

I have a vinatage RC10 #6035 from the early 1990's. This car is original in great shape never raced. It was used by a friend to chase his dog. I also have the box it came in. In great shape also. I want to update the car to go brushless with lipo. The wheels on the car where bitten by the dog and have holes in every wheel,that is the only thing wrong with this car. Can someone give some clues on what part # to replace these wheels or a good aftermarket wheel preferably in Aluminum. to replace without changing axels??? Pics will come later. This will most likely be a shelf item ,but I would like it to impressive when I do show it. I need sources for parts also. I used to race this same type of car car 21 years ago with my son.... But now I have grandsons... But would like to keep this car nice for > ME > I have 6 other cars for them.... Help.. I have been out of the loop to long to find these kind of parts. I can find all of the parts for my new cars but not this one.... I dont want to change the axels unless I have to. Does any one have any sources???? GB

Same - they are sold as a set of 4. You can buy on ebay or on their site directly.

JC racing wheels are a nice choice. They are avaliable in white and yellow and are a nice fit with the new tires. Shipping was pretty quick also, only taking about a week and a half from the UK to the US. Here is a pic of a yellow set on my one RPM project

I honestly can't remember the totals. I just remember ordering 6 sets and it not taking very long.

Depends on currency conversion the day you purchase them. Since they are in the UK, paypal will convert GBP to USD. I ordered my rims back in august along with a set of front tires and the total was $25.02
They are also available in black, a pic of mine is in this thread http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=28079

Did you want to get a set like being discussed in this thread? Then I think you did get the wrong part. J Concepts is different than JC Racing.

http://www.jcracingproducts.co.uk/products/

Then click JC Racing, Wheels, 1/10 Buggy Off-Road, then Associated RC 5 spoke.

I did buy the wrong wheels...you are so right. I found JConcepts at Tower Hobbies and thought I had the right wheel.Went back JC Racing and found the ones I wanted. They fit but are inset, and really narrow the rear....Thanks for the reply....I kike the looks of this wheel ,is there any way to space them out???

If you want to use the J Concepts wheels it's a little more involved than just using spacers. Go into Temple's RC Tech forum and check out the topic "Parts needed to run modern 2.2 wheels/tires on your RC10" discussion. I did previously....then promptly went and ordered the JC Racing direct fit wheels. I'm not ready to get into that kind of stuff yet.
