Re: Good trade or not? (ThatsMyEG)

I think it was a pretty good trade only because of tires.

</TD></TR></TABLE>i have regamaster evos which are basically spoon sw388. my girlfriend has the nippon racing replicas......they do not look the same, spokes are thicker, not in width really but from front to back. the rotas have similar spokes and even the little cuts on the inside of the spokes.
