Default Lupuz Front Wheels/Tires

Hello,

I have just purchased a new Lupuz kit and I am planning on putting schumacher mini pins in it. I think I Know what tires I need for the rear wheels, however I am unsure about the front ones.

Do I need the normal front mini pins or the slim front mini pins? And will the Lupuz kit come with pre-glued tires or will I have to glue them myself, if I do then I will not need to buy rims to go with my mini pins as I can just use the kit ones.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

hi mate, you will need either slim front mini pins or low profile cut staggers for your car. I can lend you some to try next week at mansfield and then you can buy which ever ones you prefer.

oh, forgot to say, the wheels aren't pre-glued so you can use the kit wheels

Thanks John and I may take you up on that offer of the tires, but I guess I may not be racing next week as I wont have a full set of tires. Btw would I be ok with the kit rear tires or do you think I should get the sch mini pins as the kit ones look like minis on the pic

the kit ones will be ok for a bit, long term you'll need mini pins. I'm sure I'll have a full set you could borrow for next week, make sure you come down and have a go with your new car! ;-)
