mounting lego wheels/tires on jeep
 

How do you do it? I haven't actually seen the back of the lego wheels so I don't know how they mount, but I didnt' want to buy a $12 pack of legos for 4wheels and then not know what i was doing, thanks for any help!

If you push the wheels out of the lego tires, you'll see that they are the exact same diameter as the decorative hubcabs that come with the Zips. I just trashed the hubcaps and glued the lego wheels to the black ZZ wheels. Once the glue dried, I stuck the lego tires back on the lego wheels, and viola!

Just don't ask me how to do the body modifications because I never did get the body to fit perfectly with the huge tires. I usually just run it bodyless or with a camaro body I chopped to hell. (I'm not much of a chevy guy :D )

[Edit] BTW I added another steering return spring since that initial mod, and it steers like it used to on the stock battery and tires. I got the second spring from a a new ZZ because I cracked the original chassis in 3 different places by ramping it off of desks too many times.
