After 2 times out, he broke the wheel on the rim. its not the best car but for a 8 year old, Its alot of fun.

I am having a horrible time trying to find a replacement. ( I'm really new at this type of stuff) Can anyone help me to find replacement wheels and rim or the complete set This is what the wheel specifications say on the website Wheel Diameter------------ o 66 * 26mm . \


Any help is really appreciated :confused:

Best bet is to take one of the good rims to a local hobby shop and see if it matches up with any mainstream RC rims. The axle will usually have a pin or hex adapter on it to drive the wheel. You'll need to make sure that lines up properly. If you reuse the tire it will need to be the same diameter and width wheel or you can buy a complete set of rims and tires of matching diameters.

That car unfortunately isn't one that your likely to find at any hobby shop though so you probably won't find an exact replacement unless you contact the company directly. There was a support option on the web page so you might be able to get replacements from them through mail order.

well, looks like a Tamiya Baja King knock-off to me. i am sure the normal Tamiya parts would fit, but take off the body of your car and take some pics for us. next time do a little research before you buy, so you can get Tamiya Quality from the start ;)
