Ancient RC10 wheels

[Bubba]

Tomorrow a friend is bringing me his old gold tubbed, non Stealth RC10
buggy, assuming he can find it. I assume I'll have to rebuild the
shocks, tranny, and diff, which isn't a problem, but tires might not
be so easy. Anyone know if more modern RC10 buggy wheels will fit so I
can put on some 2.2" tires?

I still had my RC10 Team with the black tub chassis a few years ago. I
remember I tried finding some new wheels for it. Apparantly, the shop
couldn't get them in anymore cos it was so old. I bought the new type wheels
but they didn't fit properly. The fronts had lots of slop. Can't remember
about the rears.

I do live in Australia though, and we don't get everything the US gets.

well.... the older RC10s used different sized rear axles. also they used
different wheel bearings in the front. Can't remember the exact specs, but
I do still have a Worlds RC10, then the B2... that was when they made all
the big changes.
