Looking good guys, well done.

Great addition to a already fine wheel line up. boy howdy, if only drag racing were a popular activity in this scale. These 13mm along with a 3-4mm would make for some awesome looking pro stockers :banana-dance:

These wheels (never used CB before) you have to put a hole in the tire to secure the set screw correct? I use only slot it air wheels now 15.8x10 with 5210 nsr tires, and those tires are about 12mm wide and the sidewall is a little fat when mounted. I'm thinking this wheel may give a better fit with less truing also.

Anyone use this wheel with NSR tires? I'm thinking of giving the Bosa tires a try

Thanks

Yes, I tru and glue my tires, NSR's. I'm going to use 5210's on these 15x13 CB wheels. I use 15.8x10 slot.it air wheels now and the tire is a little fat on the side wall, so I'm hoping these wheels will stretch the tire out and also won't have to tru as mush rubber off to get them tru. Any other size air wheel you going to make soon? I like the no shoulder, but not too excited poking a hole in the tire ;)


Thanks

Hello Don,

No plans at this time to offer additional air-style wheels but that could change if there is sufficient interest/demand.

Use care when "poking" holes in tires. Do NOT use the tip of a hex wrench - the hole will actually be a small tear that will likely grow over time. Instead, use a heavy sewing needle or a very small drill bit chucked in a pin vise. Done properly, the hole will not impact the tire's performance.

I poke the hole then true, hard to find the hole after I am done without looking at the wheel lol

PG Tires is what I use

That makes sense using a needle to make the hole. I'm going to be trying the BOSA Urethanes, maybe on Slot.it wheels first before trying on CB airwheels.


Thanks
Don
