Re: Aoshima Wheels question

To fit Fujimi you shouldn't need to modify the rims from female to male as most all Fujimi models have female rims.

At the moment I'm building a Tamiya R32 (male). I had zero problem fitting the S-part rims. I fitted them without grinding down the female accepters.

Re: Aoshima Wheels question

Yes there will be a slight problem, the fujimi Female piece is smaller in diameter than the aoshima piece. What i did to install Aoshima 19's on my Fujimi RX-8 was to grind the inner part of the disc brakes (the part where the female piece of the rim enters) till the rims fit. I used a dremel with some type of metal bit (forgot the name) but it was shaped like a small cylinder.
