msf wheels

[ericmcgehee]

i have a msf, and have broken 3 front wheels. when you hit something with the wheel, the inside of the wheel breaks off around the screw which holds it on. do they make alum, or artermarket wheels that are more durable for the micro street force? it really sucks to have to wait a week for parts to come back from warenty

in response to the email,, yes you may need alloys and the metal universal joints...

well since it is like this, i think getting aluminium will be a bad choice. you might not need to change to a new rims and tires because the rims and tires will still be there but you might still want to change it <and aluminium will cost more> because the rims are so dented that you can hardly drive straight or smooth with it.

IMO, try to use MRS4 rims and wheel hub set. if im not mistaken they do fit MSF and it is more durable than MSF.

cheers~~

i will have to go to hobby town, and see if the front ones will fit. i dont think they will though. i believe the mrs4 has a bolt sticking through on the front and rear, and the msf has bolts and nuts on the rear, but uses a screw on the front which screws into the dogbones. but i will look again and see. maybee i should just learn how to drive, and stop hitting the wall. or take the pro rk 370 motor out when playing inside.

yeah, MRS4 have the same wheel setup. the front wheel hub need to be screwed into the dogbone while the rear will need a pair of nuts to bolt the rear wheels.

do check it out :)

is it the wheel itself that is breaking,, the lil plastic tabs that allow the wheels to move when the dogbone spins,, or is the screw being stripped out of the plastic dogbone...
