The black Zac rim isn't available as of yet. The Matrix and SRC and Contact are the easiest to get.

Capricorn Hardlight wheels are one of the best:

Mike thank you for the pictures and videos. The interviews with the drivers was a nice touch. I really love the sound of the engines screaming down the front straight in the back ground during the interviews . Thanks again

We have in stock Matrix Carbon for sedan and 1/8 scale (sedan are Kyosho style rim zero offset and 1/8 are just like the above pic) We also have Capricorn sedan and 1/8. The Zac black wheels are not available yet. Fukuda and Yuruki from Zac Project were the only ones running those tyres. Both Matrix and Capricorn carbons where the most populars at the pre-world

An article on how to get the most performance out of nitro engines at the Worlds in Homestead, while avoiding problems like this, is now posted on SGrid Online, www.sgrid.com. (Don't try the ideas that are suggested in that article unless you understand what you're doing, and why.)
