Losi 5 Spoke Wheels
 
Where are you guys in the UK getting these wheels?
The only thing I seem to find is the Yellow 5 Spokes.
And only from Horizon or E-Bay.
However, I keep seeing white ones used by most of the UK racers.
Are they not Losi? If not, which brand are they?
I'm trying to get a white set for my 501X so I can Dye them to a custom color.

Losi, did back in the day produce white 5 spokes, I think I might have a full set.

Then where are you guys getting these wheels from?
Every time I see pictures from Jimmy, there is always several cars using these wheels.
Are they just old stock and e-bay finds?

Could well be old son. I know I got mine in a jumbo lot from ebay that I bought. The yellow ones I tend to dye black as that looks tres cool.

I hear you. I will try to keep an eye out on E-bay.
Thanks for the offer.
Shipping from the UK to the US might be a hassle for you so I will just keep looking local.
They are not important, more of a side thing I wanted to do.
I will stick with the Dishes for now.
Dyeing the Yellow ones? I might try that! Thanks.

I have a set of front XX 5-spoke wheels (sold the buggy on eBay a couple years ago and found these wheels recently). Are the XX-4 front wheels wider than wheels for the XX (seeing that 4WD front tires are wider than 2WD buggy fronts).

The width on my wheels is 20cm (3/4"). Are they all the same width?
