The problem is the cost involved. The Mach 5 is easier to come by, but the Mattel RC car I use can run anywhere from 14.00 to 45.00 +. The pace car is 50.00, then there's lights and time. The Shooting star is much harder to find, so 50.00 + and the pace car another 50.00+, lights time etc. The two in the video I did sell. Extremely nice cars with good mods, in cases with nameplates. sold the set for 240.00 + shipping. Litterally made my money back, but it was more about getting a guy some sweet one of a kind cars. (for now, one of a kind)

Why would they manufacture the wheels like that what's the point?

As I understand it, the recessed areas are where the injection mould leaves the residual material. Having it in the low area would mean less precise processing, maybe saving a step of final machining. The dimples are much less of a problem with the factory tires. It's when you put on a pair of performance tires that it seems to make a big difference.

Does the tire grip the hub any less?

No Sir. The tire grips the same, it just doesn't touch the wheel in the center. I've done this with most of my GT cars and it has helped immensly.
