I exhausted all of my sources of CF wheel pants about 2 years ago.  Since then I've been recycling them from my older planes, next will be reverting back to carving them from balsa, assuming I can find some light weight balsa!!!  If you find a source please let us know!

I got a super light set from a Park Zone RC.  They were ABS.  Put then on my ARF Nobler.

I used different set but look around, there are a bunch of them available and they are light.

Igor Burger sells some light ones. (Check with him to see if he has them in stock.)
