Default TSS and Locked up - out of stock for everything

Does anyone know why The Scale Shop has been out of stock for almost every single type of wheel for so long? I have a set from them and they are my favorite 1.9s. Apparently too bad - because I can’t get anymore.

Same with Lockeduprc.com. I also have a beautiful set from them. There, the three 1.9 wheels I selected are out of stock. So were the SLW hubs (not as big a deal since I can get them off of eBay).

Does anyone know what’s going on? I would rather not go with Vanquish because so many folks have them and they would not look quite right on my ‘85 SR5 bodied scx10ii.

Thanks!

For TSS I think I read that he is a one man operation, and he might not be selling as much due to all the Chinese-ium wheels that people have been buying as of the past year, year and a half. I heard you can get a full set of Chinese knock-off wheels for $60ish.

Or it could be trade tariffs making it hard for those companies to get materials...maybe. I don’t read enough news.

Corey said he will no longer be mnaking wheels (because of the knock offs and their pricing). Locked up is just out of stock as usual, great wheels and sell fast.

I am really bummed about TSS. Love the hutchinson and monsters...

Yeah TSS is done making a lot of stuff. I have the second to last set of Hutchinson wheels he had available on his site.

I'm not sure why LURC is out of stock.

Awww... TSS. I’m devastated. I feel I discovered them too late. Grrrr.

Vanquish is nice and all but not right for my this time.

Anyone else have any recommendations for super scale 1.9s. Price not really relevant. I’ll spring for something nice.

Yeah, bought a set of 1.9s today but not the designs I wanted since the first 3 configurations were sold out. It will still look good though.

Black rock cutters with raw aluminum sever rings and all scale hardware - black bolts.

Rock cutters do have a vintage look to them.

Locked up is the best. You won’t be disappointed.

TSS wheels are truly special. Even more so now that they're all discontinued.

If you look carefully not all TSS are marked sold out.
