Re: King Kong RC M26 Wheels
Yea, they do look good. I certainly need to order a new set of bearings to fit the tapered shafts that came with the wheels. I would presume your Leo has the same configuration? Totally different than what I currently have from the Tamiya kit.ruben2005 wrote: hi i got a set for my tamiya leo and they fit great also got idler wheels and a few other bits overall there good parts

The Pershing has new shoes. Next up, IMPACT's T81 track.

Re: King Kong RC M26 Wheels
It would almost seem an aesthetic crime to paint those wheels ; but Bling and camouflage are not ideal companions...Xiaoshan_Sailor wrote:The Pershing has new shoes. Next up, IMPACT's T81 track.

Re: King Kong RC M26 Wheels
I agree about it being a shame to paint them. Another good thing about build threads is having a photo album of all your added shiny brass details and metal upgrades etc.

Re: King Kong RC M26 Wheels
Agreed, was thinking the exact same thing yesterday but they'll get eventually get primed & painted. Only concern I have over the set is the hub caps are held in place by magnets & quite easy to pull off given the screws behind are oval so has very little contact. I'll put a dab of silicone sealant behind each for a more secure attachment once painted.
Aside from that, am very impressed with these & highly recommended KKRC's parts. I only wish they offered a larger variety of aftermarket RC tank parts since I'd love to replace the wheels of my 2 T34s & M4A1 with product from these guys.
I bought on Taobao direct so with current exchange total including VAT total came to the equivalent of $133. As we say where I come from, you can't beat that with a stick.
