but how to the F104 rubber wheels/tires work on the F103? do the offsets work out ok?
trying to find a 'tamiya-only' alternative to the one's Lightfoot recommended
We mounted the F60 kit tires onto an F109, which is similar in dimensions to the F103, and it just made the rear track width narrower. The front rims are almost dead nuts equal, but the rears are definitely narrower. The rear hax adaptors / hubs are the same on all the 103/104 type cars, including the 3racing F109, so they bolt right up. The front rims are different between the 103 and 104 cars, in the bearing flange area. Papo didn't have any issues mounting the front rubber rims to his F109, so it looks like a straightforward swap.
