- My friend At ease RC sent out his traxxas vintage sprint car wheels for me to try on the rat rod chassis, and I swear they are just too dang big!

Nope, they are too tall. The glue nonsense, considering the source for those tires are a major player that's disappointing. They look completely out of proportion, right idea, wrong size.
Speaking just for myself there are two
R/C vehicle companies I don't care to deal with and this is one of them. So not too disappointing. But THANKYOU for going through the hassle of getting ahold of a set and trying them out. You went the extra mile and that's what makes RC Everyday great.👍
I feel as the size could maybe lend itself to an Ed Roth style cartoon rod, like if Rat Fink drove rat rods instead of muscle cars. The glue work is pretty terrible for being sold through Snap On
I honestly feel like Traxxas made the sprint car enormous that way it's parts wouldn't be useful for anything else. Being almost entirely bespoke parts anyways, it doesn't have much reason to be so huge.
They looked alright on Number 1, would need 6 to run duals in the back with the singles up front though gives it more of a heavy duty/aircraft look.
...completely the wrong decade but I wonder how they'd look on the red cat hauler..
Good video 📹 👍 👌 👏 🙌 😀
You have a good r c show buddy, I've been watching you for a long time.👌👏👏
tamiya bbx front tires have a old school look about 3 5/8 tall 1 wide and fit 1.9 rims
I'm sure that glue will go away when you weather them. Speaking of weather. My Magnolia Tree bloomed this last week of March.
4:33 Yeah I'd love to put these on my SC10GT and see how they handle a 50mph nitro 2wd SCT hahahahaha
Might have to make a bigger rat rod
No they just wouldn’t look right at all , yeah I wouldn’t be very happy if I had to spend a lot of money on them and the glue like that no, no. Here watching Josh April 10, 6:49 PM.
Love your channel! Speaking of wheels, folks on my RC FB group suggested I contact you for advice. I am building a replica my 1969 Z28 in 1/10 scale that I drove in high school, circa 1975. I will also scratch build an interior for this car as well.
There are two things I need and having much difficulty locating. The 1st are chrome period outside rear view mirrors...I am aware of the Kyosho Camaro however I do not think it will fit on my TT02 chassis. I am using a PF body and hesitate to try another because the paint job came out so fantastic on it. I am also looking for 1/10 scale wheels as close to period, US slotted mags as possible and white letter tires. The wheels were brushed aluminum, not chrome. White letter tires are not really an issue other than I'd like something American like Goodyear or so. I actually found both slots and Goodyear tires in truck wheels and tires, but obviously will not work on my Camaro. My tires were actually Uniroyal Tiger Paws, 70's F and 60's R. So 2 things; Are there any 1/10 scale slotted mag wheels and vintage styled, outside rearview mirrors (both left and right) that I can purchase? Thanks in advance for advice and thanks for sharing your wonderful work!
The mirrors from the kyosho body should be able to fit your painted body. Might have to drill a hole for them. Wheels are hard, especially scale 15’s or 16’s. Everything I’m aware of that style are 1.9’s, like what’s in your tt02 already. 3d printed wheels could be done if you can find some. Searching 3d print files like thingiverse and cults3d is another can of worms in itself. If you can find something your looking for in any scale you would be able to contact the designer and they could scale them to the exact size you need. But then tires become the issue. There just aren’t any scale onroad tires for smaller wheels. Maybe 3dscaleparts.com has something that might work. Last I looked he had added a ton of other size hit rod wheels and tires. And he sells them with the tires that he makes.
@@RCeveryday I do have a splendid wheel in mind. They come in several colors, all brushed aluminum and will work great. I've chosen the black rim with silver spoke d wheel. The black rim will help the tire look less low-profiled. I'll probably wind up painting the white letters for the tires myself, Thanks man!
The wheels are called Hobbysoul
Why not go with Jeveries beautiful lowrider wheels? 😁
They would be very small for these builds I’m afraid
They'd look good on the 1/8th scale if the front axle was spaced out about 2 inches. The glue job is ridiculous, if I got that I'd demand my money back, its totally unacceptable, but what you expect it came off the back of the ole r@pe wagon.
