New Rims For My Skyline

Went to the local hobby store today, & picked up some new rims. It worked out real well because the wheel was 1/24th scale from the start. All I had to do was drill the center out.

Shiny...shiny...shiny...SHINY!!! Sorry, I like shiny things.:o Those are beautiful wheels. Even on that carand not on an Escalade.

How do I drill out the centers? I have these rims that I would like to put on my XMOD. Please explain.

These were originally silver, but as you can prob see in the BG theres a can of Tamiya ts-21 GOLD paint. :)

I just used Bad Compay's thread for a guide. I took a small drill bit & an X-acto knife. I also used one of my stock spare rims as a drilling guide. Btw nice job on the rims.

TY, your rims look good too. I hope I can get these rims to fit with my FD body (http://www.tinyrc.com/forums/showthr...threadid=16093). I'm going to try BC's method.
