Tamiya M-02L Chassis Questions

[csaari]

Greetings all,

I have a Tamiya M-02L chassis car, in the form of a VW (original) Beetle. I have been looking for some parts for it, both locally and online, and they seem to be pretty scarce. Can anyone give me any info on the availability of parts for this car? The main things I am looking for right now are the VW Beetle wheels, Tamiya part number 50694.

Also, does anyone have any recommendations as to what kind of wheels and tires would work good on this car for indoor carpet racing?

Many thanks in advance!

Clint

Usually you would use foam tires on carpet, although i'm not entirely certain. You can also just get HPI mini-wheels because they also fit on Tamiyas.
