Nope. It's the saber rattling thread.

Thanks for the insight Granpa. I'll take some pics and post how the tire change goes and how badly these wheels are cooked lol. I beat the hell outta this thing...now I know not to lol.

Question Granpa. What are some good quality wheels that are on the tougher side. Looking at tamiya reinforced wheels for the mini. Ebay has em for about 20 a set roughly.

Not sure what reinforced rims you're looking at, but if they're the carbon ones, look elsewhere. They're exceptionally brittle. Save your money, it's enough I wasted mine.

Them ones:
