Got them yesterday. Was disappionted to see that they are truck rims. I guess I got a little trigger happy on the auction which stated they are for rc10, but failed to mention their width. But, I have an idea to make them work. Hope no-one here will be offended at a little vintage butchery! :twisted:

Ha hah! Funny Marc! I don't feel too bad about the possible chopping up of these wheels since I really have little use for truck rims. I decided to concentrate on the buggies because well, I can't have one of everything. :lol: Plus, I really want to build a project or two with some of my own thought going into them instead of just bolting parts together. But, I'll start my own thread when I do that...

Just for general information....Imex still sells the XTRA Wide slicks that used to be marketed for Bru-Line truck wheels. At least I think they're the same....same part number and name.

How did I miss this thread ? Other than Techna's I've never been a fan of aftermarket Kyosho rims but those look real good . I've had a imex slick on my workbench for years always hoping to find a set . Old thread but hopefully an update if any ?
