Looking for just the wheels only. I need 4 min.

Don't expet to find those any time soon, they are so fragile that they will disintegrate while you are watching! I have been searching for a good set over 3 years and still haven't been able to find perfect ones.

If you need wheels for runners I would recommend Coors wheels. In my opinnion better looking, much more common and way stronger. Coors came with 2 set of wheels (gold and silver) so these should be relative widely available. Alternatively you could use Ninja's wheels, they fit but front wheels are narrower than the rear wheels so you should find suitable tires.

Real funny. :blink: I have a bunch but need to match what I have to make full sets. I wouldn't take your recommendation to use the coors wheels. The suspension setup is different and the wheels won't work. :lol: I tried. :) The ninja wheels are the strongest and again they won't work with the suspension setup. I have lots of those too.

You are right about the differences, Coor's wheels have totally different offset. Using those makes the track width pretty narrow. They also don't have any grooves to attach tires. But they have work pretty well in my runner. I have also used Samurai wheels and tires (need another adapter though) and they work pretty ok, and look ace :lol: I haven't tried Ninja wheels though but I would imagine that the narrower front tires would be good for handling, atleast Ninja seems bit crispier than Shogun. Could be the higher suspension stays aswell though. I agree about the durability, haven't broke any Ninja wheels. Funnily I haven't broke any silver Coors wheels either but few gold colored, maybe the gold paint or plastic compound Marui used makes the gold colored wheels more fragile as in Shogun.

I might have some extra fair condition Shogun wheels if you are interested.
