See what you do is, get a freaking ruler, measure the size of the rim and go buy a pipe that fits the size.
Or take the rim with you to the home depot or where ever you are going.

*** u talking about home depot usually has a full isle of it!? look down the plumbing isle and its the black pipe. btw dont call and ask if they have it becuase most of the phone jockeys dont know crap about anything.

The rimz are good, but it all depends on your body choice,
Just wait and go to the plumbing store it will help you greater in the long run!,
P.S-I know just how you feel my parents wont let me do online shopping eather!

This abs pipe you all are talking about. Do you think i can throw some on the back wheels of my 2wd stadium truck and drift? or put it on all 4 wheels? Or just forget it, it wont drift with S***. Any ideas or if anyones tried it let me know.
Thanks.
Thanks.

There are other internet drift forum sites (that are FAR better than certain ones) and some of the members sell the stuff. But, it's through paypal. Sooooo, your parents would probably drop the hammer on that too. Just in case they don't http://drccentral.com/forums and http://www.groovydrift.com/forums If you check the forsale area, ABS is constantly on sale. Next, are you close to any major cities in Texas (cuz you're clearly not in one). Their Home Depots should carry it since it's such a widely used piece of plumbing material.
However, if you want a bit more traction, grab some electrical tape and wrap up that PVC. That'll provide a temporary solution. I wouldn't suggest you do too much more until you're allowed to fully enjoy all the wonderful attributes of the internet. I understand where your parents are coming from, but there are a lot of credible sellers out there that love helping out the RC Drift community.
I like the wheels. Nice job.
