That tools list was VERY VERY helpful! Thank you for this How To, my son and I will build memories from our Hot Wheels upgrades! We already “collect “ them together, this will be a great addition to our hobby.
Very interesting and very helpful. I would just add one thing. If you’re going to be doing this quite a bit, it might be worth investing in a small light duty drill press. Something from Amazon or HF would work. It would give you a bit more control
i get mine at ababa/QA. i use #0 metal screws with pan heads or countersunk heads depending on which ends up being more hidden, but thats for the RC micros.
Hey nice video first video that i see more helpful without too many tools to use but i got a question hope that u can answer it mmm i got the tap and drill set but I dont know what size is the 2-56 into m size the tao drill sizes comes from m3 to m8
Awesome stuff, I have been wanting to learn how to do this so I am glad that you have made a detailed video about it. I especially like the list of tools needed twice right off the bat. I believe if you're making a "how to" style video the list of needed tools and/or items should be included right near the beginning of the video. You nailed it. I love it!
I bought a donor car for the wheels. Any easy 99¢. But many vendors sell custom aluminum wheels. Many people swap the Real Rider wheels from the car culture cars that are $5.
PERFECT! Finally an informative, and to the point video without all the ghetto effects and horrible music. THANK YOU sir!
Your welcome. Glad it was helpful.

I'm glad the tool list helped. There may be other bit sizes that might work also. This is just what I used. Have fun.

Hmm sorry not sure. M3 to m8 means.
thats a really fine thread and will strip out easily.
Great video!
Thank you for the upload!
Have good one. Take care! ;)
Thank you
Would the drill bit also open up a hot wheels with metal base?
Hi Rodrigo. I would think so, the rivets look the same. I haven't drilled a metal based car yet. Might just dull the bit more.
Ok thanks for the info👍
you'll have to use something a bit bigger to cut off the rivet lip. i use a 7/64" for the micros
Can you use a drill to add threads in the post's holes for the screws?
No, I don't think so. You're going to have to buy a tap. I got mine from Harbor Frights.
@@braydenewing5269 Thanks
@@gabbytimpug8399 No problem.
not with 2-56. thats 56 threads per inch
Informative vid, nicely done
Thank you
You should get better wheels an tires cuz them are junk.but nice job 🍻
I'm accepting real rider set donations...
i don't see ANY WHEELS on yours
I wish they would use small screws instead of self tappins would make wheels swapping a lot easier and a lot faster just my idea..
they do that via the cheapest way possible and rivet posts are what they use

Glad you enjoyed the video. Have fun with your wheel swap.
Hot wheels should make their cars with screws not rivets.
best of all
Where should I buy wheels

What tap set?
Mine is from drill america. POU2-56. 1 set with #51 drill hs plug tap.
well if you are using 2-56 screws then get a 2-56 tap
use a 2-56 tap for a 2-56 screw
