Alloy Wheels Group Buy
 
1 Attachment(s)
At long last! Unlike other wheels that have been floating around, this is the real kit with all of the parts needed for conversion:

4 Rims (one with spacer ring)
4 Screens
1 Rear Axle (Tomy)
2 Front Axles (Tomy)
2 Knuckles (Tomy)
1 Manual

Due to the strong Euro, the Group Buy price will be $16.99. Here's a picture of the available styles - they are available in 5mm or 6mm widths. For this initial phase, just post RE what wheels you'd like, no commitment required at this point, we'll post a link to make PayPal payments once we've got a feel for how many people are interested and which wheels they want (and how many)!

Great....what a perfect time.
NOT!
Dang move, I can't order anything until the move is done!
:mad: :mad: :mad:
And that's such a perfect price, too...:( :( :(
EDIT: Awwww, man! I really want those TSR Silvers in 5 mm....
Is there anyone in the San Diego Area that I could have them shipped to and then get them picked up?

newbitowner 09-23-2003 12:38 AM

Is it hard to install the wheels? Can you give me an idea of how it will be done?

BabyKiller 09-23-2003 06:49 AM

BabyKiller 09-23-2003 06:52 AM

and $16 a kit so what you get the whole kit comes with the axels the nuckles and stuff well whats the gear ratio on that axel and does it come with the bity wheels still on it? same with the nuckles are the pins pulled out?

Cool! Thanks Tiny! :D

I'd like:
- RJ Rallye Sport; 5mm - 1 set
- Bit Sprinter; 5mm - 1 set

Micro S2000 09-24-2003 01:03 AM

i have a question, you said group buy? so does that mean you buy the alloys for 17 bucks each and you have to buy multiple sets? or its 17bucks for a couple sets?

JackD 09-24-2003 10:39 AM

Great hook up Tiny !!! I'll take a 5 mm BIT Sprinter and a 6 mm BIT Offroad.........jd

Yugo DSC Maxxer 09-28-2003 10:18 PM

Would the alloys work on ZipZap SE's?

actofgod 10-03-2003 09:36 AM

Exact date is TBD based on interest - which seems pretty good so we'll move forward v. soon. And yes they come w/ tires! :)

TSR 5Blade 6mm (da bigger da rims, da bigger da pocket):D

actofgod 10-08-2003 10:32 PM

This may be a dumb question, but are there any problems with 6mm rims fitting vs. 5mm? I remember on the bitpimps alloy wheels group buy there was some concern about the larger ones having enough clearance in the front to turn.

Oh, and I don't suppose you have any pics of some of these badboys mounted yet...? Now I'm reconsidering which ones I want. Ahh, I just may have to get two sets :)

actofgod 10-28-2003 12:52 PM

For anyone else trying to find more info on these, there are a couple more pictures on the German site http://www.bitchar-g.de/

The link to the alloys page is here

So the wheels are 9mm in diameter and 5-6mm wide. Will pullback rear tires fit these?

JackD 10-28-2003 01:21 PM

The alloys look awsome, how do they perform compared to the stock plastic wheels. Are they lighter ? Give better traction ? Flip over less ? Just curious.....

actofgod 10-28-2003 04:45 PM

They are heavier than the stock plastic wheels, which is a good thing in this case. They are wider (see pic on German site), so they have better traction, turn better, and flip less often. The fact that they also look awesome is a bonus :)

Swavey 10-28-2003 05:05 PM

I am very interested in joining this group buy...
How much would I have to pay extra to get them shipped to me in Alberta Canada.

Also, What is the axle hole like in these, the ones from before were bit and needed putty or tape or something to get fitted, are these ones the same? Or have the axle holes been reduced?

Thanx
:cool: Swavey :cool:

tinyrc 10-29-2003 09:24 AM

Swavey, shipping to Canada via Airmail should be about the same as our normal US shipping. :)

Swavey 11-12-2003 03:19 PM

So tiny whats the deal with these?
I was really looking forward to more people getting interested. Is it still a go, or whats the deal?

SubaruWrxSti 12-03-2003 07:29 PM

nope stridex, hes getting a rough number of how many he should order. This is going to be a group buy (i believe) and that he is just estimating right now. Money isn't needed, Yet... -mike
