yes!

on the right, that is what i need , i thought about possibly making my own, but that would take like 8 rims to make 4 spinners. of course that would have to be 40 series. so i would end up just buying aluminum rims and wait for the spinners. any1 know where i can order these rims from japan for my t-maxx????

WOW that was interesting. Hydraulic's LOL on RC's like the Tmaxx and my Pirate would be the best thing since sliced bread. The spinners look good and those interior's are another nice touch. I didn't get to read the whole site and check the info. Do you know what type of RC's they are using for these creations. I may just have to get one of those for the hell of it.

they are awsome. but for $285, is it really worth it, you could do a total .247 conversion to t t-maxx for that kind of money

I know what your saying but I think we aren't thinking the same thing. I'm saying have a maxx that has those options for a show truck or something. I've seen the little ones that are just models for 20 bucks . But to make a real RC with those options would be sick I gotta look at the site again and see the info.

The reason why this stuff is so expensive.. I think is because its a new FAD.

In about 3-4 years when people get sick of this, these "dubbs" will disappear alltogether!

Its a very simple concept.. but the price is high because the demand (right now) is high and the supply is delieberately low!

Whoever thought of this.. to market these to the bling bling community.. is a genious!!

i still NEED these rims. i thought about taking 40 series rims, and cutting the center out of 4 of them and sanding them down for clearance and attaching them to another identical set and put magnets on the back of the spokes to make them spin while in motion and then spin when stopped for a while. i dunno, ill just wait for them to hit the market i guess
