i finally got my TF today and have been working on it
i get to the tires and 3 of them go fine, the last one will not seat in, after fighting and cussing for hours, i finally concluded that the tire mold is messed up, no matter what it will not seat in the bead, i even took the others apart to switch out and its definately this one tire, i think it is molded poorly and oval in shape, it really pisses me off though, and i dont want to have to send the whole thing back to tower for 1 stupid crappy tire :mad: :mad: im really fuming now
Very fustrating. And Kyosho customer support is non-existent I believe. I would call tower and see how they want to handle it. Maybe they will send you a pair of new tires for your trouble. They are great to deal with.

that sucks:mad:
i guss the fastest way to handel it is to order new pair.
end than replace the diffect one end send it back in the pair bag.
end get something else insted.

That really sucks, but with what tires did it come? stock mad force/armour tires or the ones i've seen in a few pictures? Could you please get us some pictures ;) .

as far as the rest of the truck goes
im amazed at the beefyness of this thing, i have an Emaxx and the parts seem puny compared to this
im guessing thats due to the fact its a nitro chassis, ive not had any experience with kyosho before
the bearings and axles are just massive
i cant wait to drive the beast
unfortunately wont be for a while, i swamped with college work and its raining now too..... nuts
Any chance you will be the first one to post a pic of your own Twin Force?
