I wondered why Schumacher announced that they were importing 1/8th wheels and tyres.....

schumacher produce their own 1/8th wheels and tyres in the factory. they come ready mounted and gluded.

they will be however importing an 1/8th off road buggy. ive seen it and it is exstremly well speced for the price. it coms with carbon fibre radio plate along with other parts, a real nice peice of kit to say its £100 cheaper than the GS storm ready to run.

hope this helps.

Yeah, it looks alot better than the Thunder Tiger RTR, similar price too.

I thought those wheels and tyres were imported, not made by Shcumacher. ??? Oh well....

;D

sorry guys the wheels and tyres are imported by schuy!!! doh!! :-[

by power racing, guess it works out cheaper this way as they would of had to produce new moulding tools for the injection moulding machine they use for producing wheels!! a lot of money!!

sorry about the bad post!! ???

Just like Sorex in TC.

Do Schumacher still make their own slicks?

I last used them at Worksop indoors 3 years ago! (yellows BTW.)
