I have aluminum alloy wheels that are badly pitted and corroded. Is there a product that can be painted onto alloy to restore the wheels?

Number seven is not a factor of 360. Inevitably there will be an error in the pitch of the spokes. This will affect the balancing of the car at higher speed. An unavoidable error can be corrected by adding a balancing weight. But why this intentional error?

I need to know how the torque required to turn the wheels changes if the car is stationary or moving. If you can provide a method for calculating the torque, I will be thankful.

Best regards

We incorrectly assembled a Little Tikes car. The front wheels were installed backwards, with the metal support for the left wheel installed on the right and vice-versa. The metal supports are hammered in, and it’s almost impossible to pull them out. There are little clefts that could possibly allow a hammer end to pry them out, but because of the wheels it’s impossible to get enough leverage. Any ideas on how to get those metal wheel supports out so we can put them into the right spots?

For the record I’m really annoyed that Little Tikes can’t use screws and nuts like everyone else.

every time we try to make them roll it doesn’t work. the wheels are made of oreos and r on pepermint sticks. please help!
like how do u get them 2 stick to the car and roll?
the surface it has to roll on is smooth. and we already made the wheels. how do we connect it 2 the car?

I have some Volk Racing wheels for sale & would like to know what web sites are good to advertise besides Craigslist / Recycler Classifieds / & Ebay?

The speedometer in a car is driven by a cable connected to the shaft that turns the car’s wheels. Will speedometer readings be more or less than actual speed when the car’s wheels are replace with smaller ones?

For Valentines Day I am putting together a basket of memories for my boyfriend. About 10 years ago he had a hot wheels car that was yellow blue and orange the glowed in the dark. It also had some “fins” on the side. Do you know what the name of this car is, or where I can buy one?

Thanks!
