Taigen KV-1 Wheel Wobble

Hi Everyone,

I have just bought some early KV-1 wheels on offer and have found they don't spin very true and wobble from side to side - see video below.

I have bought kv-1 wheels before and had the same problem - are they all like this or have more recent batches fixed the problem ?

If they are all a bit off, I have worked out a way to fix them but it will mean some lathe time to correct the inner bearing holder as its noticeably off centre, I just wanted to check before hand to save myself the bother if I can.

Thanks

Guy

I have a kv1s with a HL hull and I don't have this problem... I bought it about 2011 and it's okay
