As far as I know the late wheels only fit the Asiatam/Taigen Tiger hull, if you have the HL, torro hull then that's a no.

Hi bud, Ive just got these yesterday, they fit great and are good quality. I dont have an adjuster fitted but these all fit as per the originals(early type) the only thing need doing is to place a bump stop to achieve maximum travel or droop. hope this helps

Interesting battlechip what brand are they?
I've only seen the Asiatam or Taigen ones which don't fit the HL hull.

Hi Ian, these wheels look to be Taigen? I have contacted the seller but only to tell him the wheels don't have bearings as advertised. lol. They are really heavy,even compared to the other metal set from Mato, and the metal also has a ring to it rather than a dull thud. I was never happy with the Mato wheels as the hole isn't even in the centre. Looks like I'm modding to mid/late Tiger? Cheers Russell

I wasn't aware could get metal wheels for the standard hull.
