Full Size Wheelset....screw that!

I tried doing a fullsize wheelset with a spare set of steering knuckles I have and the extra stock axle, and I did it, and it looked great, however my car could only turn left. I have no idea why. It would turn KINDA left if I let go of the gas and held the button, but not while driving. So, I guess its back to those ugly ass small wheels in front. :-/

my advice is to try the car without the body 1st. if it works nice then you'll know where's the problem. if don't just try to check if the changed rims are scratching the chassis or if the returning spring is well positioned (a say that because last time i messed with the rims my spring jumped out and the car was not able to turn to one side).

If it does turn without the body, you will have to sand down the inside of the shell where the tire hits it. I had to do that on my skyline.

i think you should get ahold of some zip zap rims, they look cool and lose that ''stock'' look to the car

Well it behaved the same way with the body on or off, so I put back the stock wheels. Then I said just for the heck of it to put em back on and viola, they worked great. So now I have fullsize wheels...and they look bangin.
