You can't take off just the from rims. If you want to change your front tires, you have to open up your bit char and replace the front wheels from another bit char. The zip zap front wheels are also compatible, but you results may vary depending on your body type.

On that note:
I REALLY wish they made them so that they could come off...
I live in a house with 5 cats and a dog, and pet hair IS a problem...

Open up your bit and replace them with ZZ rims? Do you mean replace the hubs with ZZ hubs?

how about a x-acto knife. Will a long blade reach in to cut up the stings on the axle?

get some long nose, or needle nose pliers, and grab hold of the pin that ges through the centre of the wheel. then pull the pin out. it works, i have tried it, and so has my friend who has a bullet clone. when u want to put the wheel back on you just tap the pin with a small hammer. i have done it about 6 times, and my wheels have never come loose.

I figured it out. You pop the body off. Then you pop the micro chip out and be very careful. There will be a tiny screw and then nscrew it then pull off the piece with the suspension on it and the front rims will come right off.

i say TOMY should have it to where its a skrew or a bolt...so then in the future you can swap your rims easily with the same "nuckles"
and it would also make it easier to take the 4 inch dog hairs that are caught in my rims....

For those of you who need pictures,
Quest For Madness has some. It's custom modification #19 4 Wheel Drifting with detailed instruction on how to remove the rims.

Actually, you can pull the rims out of the knuckle. The rod it uses is knurled, so that it will 'stick' better in the plastic knuckle. I pulled mine out (using a small vise and a pair of needlenose pliers) and replaced the rims with the ones I had in the pic with my 350z. I also did a set of NASCAR style rims (though I haven't done a rear axle of that yet). Just be very careful.
