Hey guys,

I'm wanting to run some 1/12 this year, and am going to switch to Associated from Speedmerchant. Any of you have a old 12r5 they'd like to part with or possibly trade?

I have enough stuff to build a few Rev5's, if anyone needs parts lmk. I can't sell the stuff but we can work out some kind of trade.

Yeah, it's the same tire as the CRC spec. Not sure what chassis you're running, but the CRC rims are a bitch to fit on the CRC hub/screws...the screw holes are a bit misaligned. Jacos are no problemo.
