BEWARE THE TRX RIM!! These rims can be deadly, i call them t.o.x. rims for good reason. if you dont have the original set of nuts from the TOX bluebird then there can be a tiny amount of gap between the nut and wheel. this causes wheel studs to break off at high speed and can end in COMPLETE DISASTER!!!!!!!!. I have had this happen to me on the road in hobart, luckily the wheel stayed on. i have been overtaken by a tox wheel in the bush bash racer, broke all 4 studs. and i have heard of this happening on the road. if you have all the original nuts then they are OK, if a bit heavy and without enough offset. ask another rally club dude (with a large budget) for some 2nd hand tyres, they should be fine for starters.
