I'm still tinkering with my eBay rescue RC12LW that only came with three wheels/tires, and the rears are of the old two-screw variety. I think I've managed to find a way to assemble a working diff and thrust using the original rear axle and RC4Less three-screw hubs. So now I need to make it a roller.

It looks like 12th scale racing has changed quite a bit since the RC12L series was popular. Modern wheels mount differently (which I think I have covered now) and modern foam tires are VERY low-profile. Does anyone make three-screw 1:12 wheels with older-style taller mounted foam tires? This thing will mainly be a shelfer or a resell so I'm not really interested in learning how to mount my own foams. I'd just rather buy a set. Is anything like that available?

It's either that or buy what I can get and then adjust the ride height accordingly if I'm able to. But from what I've seen those millimeter-thick foams would look out of place on an older chassis.

Anyone? Thanks.

I'd contact BSR directly. I'm sure they can get you what you want.

TM Racing has what you need

Thanks. I ended up getting some more modern Xceed mounted foams (48mm I think) and will just deal with adjusting the ride height. It's actually not as far off as I thought it would be.
