Pwalk, It's the whole tire. I'm trying to create the rims so they stick out a littly bit further. Most bodies won't fit these. They really call for a dunebuggy or gocart type body.

I'm interested in a set.

Stridex, one option I considered was to dremel the turbohopper rims to fit onto the Bit axle, but to no avail as I have utterly no dremeling skills at all.

It looks like the front rims I have on my s2000 in the beginning of this thread will do the trick. Just have to lengthen them a bit.

Edit: The pic of the car is on the second page of this thread.

PWalk,

For small drilling never use a Dremel. Here's what I use to drill antenna holes, make larger holes for rims, etc... It works like a charm. They actually sell small drill bits with small handles, but I just bought a $2 Bit and made my own handle.

Ok where'd ya buy it? Thx in advance

I bought the drill bit at Ace Hardware. They had the smal drill bits on the back counter. They're not with all the other drill bits. Then I wrapped the bottom of the bit with electrical tape and super glue to prevent slippage. I made the tape the perect thickness so the pen top fit as snug as possible. Added more glue to it and voila.

Nice deal, thanks
