      Umm if you dont mind sacrificing the rear wheels, cut em.

      Remember you must use kitt racer gears as BCG gears are too large for the front wheels.

      The cars look much better with smaller rears.

      i’ve never tried that one… i usually adjust the shell for lowering. other cars are perfect for making custom wheels tho, e.g. johnny lightning or import tuners (NOT the ones with dub 20 inchers if you want lowrider style).

      but to answer your question, you gotta cut the unwanted wheels off with a pair of wire clippers or crush and rip ’em with small pliers.

      you still working on the supra? i’ve got one in the works also…

      i’ve removed the rear wheels by gripping the middle of the axle tightlyand use a twisting/pulling motion and they usually come off easily:8ball:

      remember the axles and shell can still be modded!
      this comps going to get started soon.

      i’ll see what i can do about macro-photos of the sbcg pcb. you do mean a super bit dont you?

      and speaking of comps, remember your bit-rig road train betty? have you got any working cabs left over?
