Default rev lite wheels

Hi
can anyone tell me an alternative wheel to use on my sons cougar sv. he is running the rev lite schumacher wheels and every time we go out he cracks a wheel.
Its getting very costly as some of the sets are new.

Are you using the new U4101 U4103 & U4104 flexlite wheels?
These are in much better material.. alternative you can úse Associated B4 wheels (pin type rear)

The only problem you may find is associated cars now come with 12mm hexes so the old pin style may become hard to find soon. Once shops have run out of currant stock.

Why hasn't schumacher got their game together and sorted it out.
Its the same with the 1/8 buggy wheels everyone stays away from them but its easy with 1/8 as they all use the same hex's.

They have got it sorted out, use the flex lite wheels U4101, U4103 and U4104 and you will not have any more issues with cracked wheels.
