Basic question but it make me
Normally i used 2° offset tires ( Brand GQ) - it not touch my rear knuckle arm. But if i just change the tires to 0° offset, it touch the knuckle arm. Should i install washer behind the wheel adaptor and remove a plactic collar which is in between the wheel bearing assembly?- to avoid tires from touching the knuckle upright. What should i do actually?
Thanks for help.

mono: thanks for the clear up
esham: do you have the wheel shaft for wide tires? VZ081 (http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXBXE8&P=7). If not, you will need to use wheel hex adapter/spacer or just let it rub eventually it will get a groove and won't rob any more

Luckily, my kid's HPI kit came with 1mm thick, 12mm hex nut wheel shim and it worked just fine, although I didn't feel too comfortable having a mm off of the hex drive. Again, it did well by me.

Thanks guys.. yup got the answers- Option/Alternative are
1. Offset wheel adaptor hex nut
2. Wheel shim
3. Offset wheel joint cup.
Anybody experience on Kawahara Centax Clutch S.S Set?
What is the different between Z-1774 set compare than Z-1771 both stated used for MTX3 but i believe it well fits V1RR Evo too.. isn't it?

Re: RR laydown conversion kit
Hey kid...would you know if the laydown steering kit will also fit a V1R? If it does, where can i buy or order it. Sorry i can't open the sight that you posted. Can you also post a picture of the bottom chassis for 705. Thanks in advance!

If any of you are intested in a good quaily laydown steering kit for the RR, check out INGracing. I think it goes anywhere from $45 - $65. This is a good option for any budget racer who would like to upgrade to a Evo type knock-off.
If you have a 705, there's an even better kit for you. Carbon Fiber bottom chassis = no tweaks.

Re: RR laydown conversion kit
They also sell it with just the top plate, no bottom chassis.

The chief difference between the R & the RR is the clutch bell/centax clutch upgrade. The RR also has the option of loating rear mounts to use with a Lola body, although I still use it with a TC body [cut/shaved the side supports to keep them from poking throught he shell in on those occassional "got bumped into the wall" instances LOL].
You can convert the S and the R to have the same floating rear suspension, but get ready for an expensive "ride" [pun intended].!
