Hmm? The new wheels I have are the black ribbed ones. I think I compared these with some 2.2" pink wheels and the black ribbed ones were smaller. Anyway don't take my word, I got and compared those wheels more than a year ago and my mind can be playing tricks! I will check later and post picture if I see any difference.
By the way, SinCity, great find that car. Sorry to somehow hijack the thread but the info is helpful if you plan to restore that beauty!

I to have a set of white ribbed wheels that 2.2" tires fit very loosely on. Put a rubber band on them and the tires fit snug.

I must admit I assumed that all the ribbed wheels were 2.15" - they are certaintly smaller than other 2.2" Yokomo plain dished wheels that I have, Proline Stubbies (2.15") fit nicely - not stretched
You guys are 100% right! The works 91' controversial 2.2's and the fact I've had nothing but racing on my mind the last couple weeks got me bass ackwards- sorry! All of mine are 2.15!

What's kit correct?
Really!!!!! What tires are kit correct? These tires and wheels were from Hyeong's NIB 94 YZ10. And I would have to say your looking at TR39 tires in the rear with a set of TF310's up front.
I have seen Yokomos between Works 91 - YZ10 94 with multiple different tires supplied with kit e.g. rears TR380 and TR310 with bars. I think, since Yokomos were true race cars and stock tires were replaced normally anyway, that they just put what ever tires they have at factory that were not so good selling tires to kits. Because of this, kits front are rear tires might be suitable to totally different kind of surfaces and tracks, like TF340 in front and TF310 with bars in rear.

Just a wild guess though.
The only thing I mentioned to Al about Hyeong's kit was I've noticed a different tire in the US kits, specifically the
Rears-?

Hi been reading and looking at a lot of the posts here in the Yokomo forum, seen a lot of nice cars, a lot of new ideas, a lot of good ideas for restoration and have picked up a heap of tricks you guys have learnt and mastered over the years...

Yep wheels and tyres are as timmy says from JC racing products...nice people. Plus they
are 2.2 inch and fairly deep dish so more suited to the works models and above. I have these on another fairly hopped up yz with the longer Andys front arms and...
So after getting my old Yokomo out of storage and giving it a light dustoff, I though hmmm these cars are fairly rare so maybe I should try and find some parts or a whole 2nd spare car for replacement bits...great idea...as I still really had not...

@rccars4sal, yes, you should be able to directly bolt on your magnesium bulkheads onto a works chassis. The only difference between the 870 and the Works bulkheads is the material - magnesium vs. aluminum, as you state. The aluminum does not oxidize...
This is my old Yokomo I got back after several years and it now is in rough shape but is now in progress of a rebuild....to a Pavidas replica. This is the only Rough Track kit I have ever seen..If anyone can get a part number for this kit I would...

So I need a:
ZD-117J

Also need 2 Carbon Fiber Small battery hold downs.. I know there are other companies that make them but I am trying to keep it all Factory Yokomo. :)
Thanks!

I have one,new never used...I also had another...
I picked this up in a lot today off of Craigslist along with a RC10 with a MIP 4wd Conversion. I believe it to be newer YZ-10, but am unsure of the exact model. Any help is greatly appreciated!

No no! I am not calling you odd.
I meant to say that very few of us find the opportunity to get a great set of cars like yours!!
I apologise if you took it the wrong way!
You've got a great start with that rc10 mip. I look forward to seeing more...
