      Hi Everyone,

      It seems at long last I have secured a good strong supply of Gandini Power Tyres Foams for the Mini-Z.

      We will be stocking with our initial order (due in 14-21 days) all sizes and compounds.

      That is:

        [*]Wide (11mm) – Soft, Medium & Hard
        [*]Narrow Offset (8.5mm tread +2.5mm Offset) – Soft, Medium & Hard
        [*]Narrow (8.5mm) – Soft, Medium & Hard
        [/list]
        Pricing has been able to be contained below AUD20, and is set at AUD18.95 per box of four.

        They will be listed in the Shop once we have confirmation of their arrival in Australia.

      Good Good.

      I’ve been wanting the right wheel offsets for the Mclaren Firelap body.

      Lucky I didn’t buy those awful green nsx rims from rcmart.

      Betty, Gandini did make a set of Foams only, dunno if I can get my mits on them though.

      The ones we’ve previously had are Medium or Soft. I reckon Soft is the go pretty much no matter what unless you’re running on concrete in the middle of summer 🙂

      I’m expecting them soon soon soon!

      I got a set and have shown them to you in the past numbnuts! You need to glue, cut and true them which is way over my head……

      *nods* They’re the set I sent you ain’t they ph2t? I kinda looked at doing all that crap myself and then thought… Mini-Z is meant to be easy, bolt on mods and go go go not this tyre science stuff and so on… 🙂

      Even if the rims can be a bit dorky, they’re light and grip and best of all the things are trued up and ready to run 🙂
