I had the same problem with the samouraï resto. Tires were Always too large or too small

Funny I found some Samurai wheels and tyres in my box of wheels. rears are ok but fronts are not so good and 1 has a split. Will see if i can repair it at some point. 
 

Nice! They are collector. If you have a set of coors melling rims I'm very interested.

What are those? I havent a clue. All the rest of the rims seem to be tamiya or for the Kyosho Optima pro

They are wheeles of the marui thunderbird nascar coors melling. But samouraï rims fit to. 

Over the last few day's this is what I have been up to  

Well not the project I should have been media blasting but with all Wild One / FAV talk at a BBQ on the weekend I got excited for this I picked this FAV up 12mths ago and as you can see it was painted a lovely Blue with white accents After stripping it apart I blasted the cage bonnet and main chassis tonight





Then Blasted more parts   The roof brace, side plates and nerf bars. Next the radio battery cover and top gearbox mounts which are red because they are from a re-re parts tree. I think I ready to spray some etch primer and start to plan the camo

 

Since I have been doing a heap on media blasting it was time to give the cabinet some love As you can see, The holding glove just say's NOPE So new gloves, New air and inlet hoses then fitted a new glass film so I can SEE hahahaha


 

Last part to clean up for the FAV ( for now ) was the driver, RED is a bugger and it was all red then black over the top

 



So each of the parts were etch primed before being reassembled, From here they will stay assembled through the rest of the painting process. The driver needs some more prep work and I will mask him off but install to cover some areas

 

I love the fav when it's camo. You miss the MG .
