Before and after shots of GMP Torque Thrusts versus the wheels and tires the model comes with.

And trust me, it is not a simple pull the olds ones off and bolt the new ones on.

Great job! If I'm honest, I like the other wheels better.

I'm a road racer at heart, and vintage at that. Not really into the retro/street tuner vibe.

Planning to put some racing livery on it.

Ah, as well as being inept at interpreting the English language.

Thanks!

Yeah GMP/ACME's "street" wheels look awful. Much prefer the Torques
