Guys can anyone help i'm looking for some minilite style wheels for one of my 1/10th scale touring cars but i don't know where to start looking! lol are the wheels for the M chassis mini's the same size as the standard touring car type wheels? and are they the same hex fitment? if not are there any other wheels that look similar i can get?

Thanks

The Mini minilights are for the same good 'ol hex as the Tamiya standard.

They are a smaller diameter to the normal 1/10th wheels, and the tyres are therefore a smaller diamater to fit on them.

The 1/8th Tamiya nitro Mini's minilights and tyres are a bit bigger, and you can get slicks or knobblies.

HPI have just released Minilite style vintage wheels for 1/10 scale.

#3813 VINTAGE 8 SPOKE WHEEL 31mm MATTE CHROME 6mm OFFSET

HPI Racing has always had its eye on tradition, especially in racing. With that in mind our designers went to work to bring you the Vintage 8 Spoke Racing Wheel. These wheels offer ultra-realistic looks with an innovative construction that replaces the low-profile look of most touring cars with scale tire sidewalls just like you see on real muscle cars and vintage racing cars. They are the perfect match for vintage racing bodies and bolt on to most 1/10th scale touring cars.

Available in 26mm and 31mm widths to fit a variety of body sizes. Choose 26mm for standard sizes, or the 31mm wheels for a wider stance. Five finishes are available: black, shiny chrome, matte chrome, gunmetal, and white.

Because of the special sidewall construction, these wheels must be used with HPI Vintage Tires.
