Hey all,

in 2013 I inherited the RC10T from my late best man. That car itself will be for a different shelf project down the road.

Anyway, going through that box at my parents' house I found these wheels and adapters:

I am guessing these are Yokomos, I forgot to take a picture from the other side of the wheel.

Anyway these adapters are great for pushing the wheels out, the remaining thread is a bit short.

You've got a couple sets of adapters there. The hex piece is to convert rc10 to kyosho or hpi superstar, a few others. The yokomo adapter is for yokomo wheels on a kyosho.

Thanks for the info jwscab.

So the rims are Yokomos?

The tires are Pro Line Fuzzies, but I have to get them off since no inserts are installed and they are too soft.

Yes the wheel is a yokomo style wheel. Made by kiel or another brand. 6 spoke wheel right?

yokomo called those tamiya adapters, but yes they work for kyosho too. Yokomo for some reason didn't realise this and made kyosho adapters with conical faces which replaced the kyosho hexes
