WTD: TD-2 Black Wheels - 9335870 & 0448048

[toyolien]

Has anyone got a set of unused TD-2 black wheels they'd be willing to sell/trade? (9335870 & 0448048)

 

Thank you.

I believe these wheels can be dyed - pretty sure I have a set in white at home plus half a pack of black Rit dye in the cupboard - your welcome too them if you fancy some experimenting.

Ooh, that sounds like a plan. I'd be willing to give that a go. If no one comes up with a Black set I'll Pm you. Thank you.

Gah! Just saw Cy's thread where he mentions TD2 wheels being hex front. The stardish wheels ive got are for a front bearing fit, didnt realise the TD2 had this - your still welcome to them. Im not a fan of Stardish wheels so wont be using them in a hurry.

Aah that's ok. I've got some of the bearing type. Thanks for the offer though.

You can Rite dye these wheels I suspect.

BITD I changed a set of yellow Holiday Buggy wheels to black using Rite dye and they turned out really well.

Dying would be my last resort. These will be on a regular runner and when they get marked the old colour shows through so I'd prefer the black ones. Failing that I'd have to dye them....

No need to die any wheels, both of the above are available from Tony's Tamiya Parts if no-one has any going spare:
