Any experience with their stuff? Everything looks yummylicious, well-designed, and the price is right. How was it buying from them? Quality of parts? I'm really interested in getting some of their stuff.

Thanks! :angry:

I have a bunch of their photoetch and multimedia tire/wheel kits and the quality is excellent. Very very nice stuff.

FYI, although I love their tire/wheel kits ... watch out for the tires, they turn white (chalky) with age. You need to give them a little lube of Armor All (tip given to me by DaveZinn.. thanks Dave!)

I use a lot of Pegasus wheel/tie combos ($10.00) and their disc brakes ($4.00) so twice the money seems stiff. But the wheels look good. Isn't shipping expensive? Maaybe I need to take another look.

Kinda pricey for me - $30.00 for a set of wheels/tires.

That's a lot cheaper than 1:1 <_<

I have to echo Dave's comments. Really nice quality stuff.

Here is a set of the kick wheels I bought.

Are the centers of the wheels photo etch or are they milled aluminum?

The wheel centers are not aluminum, they are all photoetched. The outer rim blanks are machined aluminum. The photoetched center gets positioned (sandwiched) between the two outer wheel blanks (front/rear).

Mike, I guess I should have reread that. You are correct, the wheel center is photo-etch and the outer rim is aluminum. I was looking at the very center of the wheel, disc, thinking that was what he was asking as it is turned aluminum. Sorry about that.

Wow that is some serious quality there. The packaging is a nice touch too.
