| These are very similar to the SPI Racing Rocker wheels: http://www.hobbyzip.com/videos/754/a...ommercial.html |

I couldn't wait long enough for the video. Maybe it was just me, but it took 20 min to watch the first min.:-( Couldn't really see the wheels. | |

| Loaded up fast for me..... At the very end of the video it shows a good side profile of the rig. Last edited by carbonuts; 03-20-2009 at 11:42 PM. |

| I was actually one of the testers for the SPI Rockers, got my first set mid January and I know videos were being posted before I got my first set. http://www.hobbyzip.com/videos/692/s...ommercial.html I also know that SPI has a patent on the wheel design, not sure what it covers but obviously the focus would be on the pendulum style weight. Here's the latest version with three piece bead lock system: |

| The concept is similar, but the design is totally different. I believe the floater wheel concept came from the 1.1 world? |

| also that they are set to one weight size.... these have many different weights and things that make it much more different. they system is nice but these are for fine tuning. |

Good business procedures would have you contacting SPI to set things straight. | ||
