Do you not need special adaptors to use thoes rims? I run the wheels and adaptors off a tamiya fox on mine.

Get Tamiya 53913 hex adpaters for running 12mm hexes on the rear. The fronts are direct mount.

Now the big question, where can I find tires such as BF Goodwrinch or super swampers to fit a frog?

Ok I'm at my wits end with this and I would like any help. I missed the boat when they were making tires and rims for the RC10 a few years back. I know there are rims still being made by JConcepts but tires are the bane of my existence. I'm willing...

I did dye the wheels for the Houge before I painted them.
Totally forgot about that until just now
They took dye as well as any other nylon I have done.

I have seen a couple on here and we've discussed that they are rare. I have a handful and it's neat to see all the different tire treads. Just too bad some of mine are glued to old rims and fearful to remove them intact. I'd like to see what tires...

That´s what I´d call a good set of headers :D
Let´s see that body Looks like a beast, taking some design cues from the Monster Beetle/Blackfoot. Bright lights indeed, but kinda funny that they're mostly obstructed by the shocks & shock tower. :)...

Nice looking Frog. I dig those aluminum side nerf bars. If it was mine, I'd ditch the wheel knock offs though. Looks awesome otherwise. 8)
