Customer Reviews

but they are much better than the stock wheelsI haven't used them yet, but they are much better than the stock wheels. I think they will make a big difference. 5Legal Wheels?Excellent product, and as described. Only trouble is that some Scouting Units prohibit altering the inside of the wheels ( these are thinned) for their Pinewood Derby. Check to see what your regulations allow....if they allow this type of modifications..this product is definitely for you! 4Indistinguishable from StockFor quadruple the cost of a whole car kit, I was expecting a much more refined product. Side by side they are indistinguishable from stock. So close, I cant even tell if I was sold a stock set. On a scale, indistinguishable from stock. Initial spin tests, indistinguishable from stock. And on race day, I am assuming, indistinguishable from stock... I was just looking to save myself the time of doing them myself, but ill know better next time. Money down the drain. 2Winning wheelsGood product for the price. 5OK Wheels for the PriceOverall these are ok wheels for the price. They seem to be trued pretty well with no significant burs where the plastic was cut away. Two of my wheels had a very slight nick in the outside edge, probably tool marks, but I don't think they will have any effect on performance. However, I had one with a scratched bore that cannot be polished out. I would have sent these back because of this, but had no choice to use them due to no other options. 3Well-lathed wheelsThese are lighter-than-stock wheels, and depending on your Pack's rules they may or may not be allowed.Honestly, while there are lathing tools available (even our local Scout Shop sells them), I think these particular wheels work better than the homebrewed version. I found these to be from good castings (not all of the stock wheels are perfectly round), with dimensions that make them allowable for my son's Pack. Used with graphite and a properly smoothed axle nail, you will notice a difference in speed...assuming you do your part and make sure the axles are installed nice and straight, with proper spacing between the wheel and the car body. These wheels won't mitigate poor installation, but they will enhance proper installation. If you want to do every little bit to get that car as fast as possible, lathed wheels are an essential component. These are good wheels. 4I love these wheels.I love these wheels. They are well made and run perfectly true. There are tons of instructions out there to make a fast but legal derby car, but these wheels together with the speed axles are the parts that make the biggest difference, and can be the most labor intensive. Buying those 2 parts allowed my son and I to build the entire car together without worrying about dangerous tools or making problems for the car. 1st place baby. 5Official wheels, but 25% lighterAccording to my kitchen scale, this set of wheels clocked in 25% lighter than the set that came with the kit. My son is very interested in some of the youtube series on the science of the pinewood derby and is in full belief that the less weight to get spinning will be key for his race tonight. Only time will tell. 5Undersized wheelsInitial review would have been good. Wheels seemed fine. But- as we check in for the race... they are undersized . Sitting in the parking lot as my boys attempt to remove the wheels and rebuild with another set someone happened to have. I thought BSA stamped and approved was what was required. Apparently the fun has been removed from the good ole pinewood derby race by trying to undercut the process. Buyer beware. 1First rate productI hadn't helped build a Pinewood Derby cars since my grown sons were Cub Scouts. I was amazed at all of the aftermarket parts available but didn't want to simply buy a winner. We used the original block of wood for the body. I used the nails that came with the kit and polished the heck out of them. I did purchase one 1.5 degree steering axle and this set of wheels.Grandson's Cub pack had 88 cars show up to race. His car was in the first race and set low time for the night until the very last den competed. He won his Tiger Cub Den first place trophy and then had to wait until the very end to race for Pack Champion. Our race was organized so that each four car group ran four heats alternating lanes, then averaged the four times. We ended up second fastest out of 88, losing to the fastest car by an average of .003 of a second for the four heats.I couldn't be happier with the wheels. When coupled with polished axles they spin forever. We beat a lot of aftermarket bodied cars much to the chagrin of their owners. Grandson is already talking about next year's car. 5
