Wheel Inserts

Post by Double Naught »

Hi All, I noticed that some of the slot car wheel inserts fit the MAGracer wheels. These are Slot.It PA34 for the Lancia Group C Car.
I see there are many others but I not sure if they will fit. I only used the center and the brake disk glued to the back of it, then glued both to the wheel. I drilled the center of the front insert out to 1/8 " to clear the front axle, the rears are stock. I should paint he axles black to hide them.

I hope you like,

Paul

nice rims, one day somebody should make resin inserts just like we have to our slotcars (mine are 1/24 so they don't fit)

the gold color is not good for a car, give it some clear coat and it will become green :lol:

No no fun, it's look gold colored, Silver is ok, just put some Martini decals on it.
