    For those of you looking to upgrade your wheels for your 3.0L Grand Prix cars you should consider the following:

    • Front – BW13-300-093-375 – which take a small BWA insert & the RM0202 (or CX0201) tire, depending on the look you wish to achieve;
    • Rear – BW13-380-093-375 – which take a small BWA insert & the CX0202 (or RM0203) tire, depending on the look you wish to achieve;

    A larger 14mm diameter rear wheel (BW15-380-093-375) may be used in place of the rear wheels mentioned above if you wish to model a car that did have a larger diameter wheel in this period but with the overall tire diameter restriction of 22mm this will mean that you will give up the dampening (and grip) offered by a larger tire to wheel ratio…

    Cheers! :good:

          RS Slot Racing in the UK has something that is similar to the BWA for replacement front wheels.
