Can someone Tell me what wheels and what tires these are?

[Ericke1]

I like these a lot, want to know the make, model and if anyone has a link even better. Thanks.

I plan on using these on my monster gt, so I may need an adaptor for the hub.

No problem man. If you are ever back in town, bring your RCs. There are new tracks in the Bay Area.

Will do. BTW, which one of these two adaptors will let me use this wheel on my MGT?

Will this work better?

I wouldn't know if they work work "better". They would weight more but are likely to be more durable since they are aluminum.

Looks pretty cool with those rims, but if you were going to need those kinds of tires, why not go with an on-road rig? You need squishy tires for jumping or you bust up rims.

CAn you give me some suggestions?

 

[olds97_lss]

Suggestions for an on-road vehicle or suggestions for MT tires to jump with on pavement?

 

[Ericke1]

MT tires to jump on pavement, I have a good onroad already

You need something with some sidewall to it to absorb some of the impact from landing. You also would want something with a lot of tread so they don't wear down. Like the chevron type tires on the t-maxx or MGT. T-maxx tires last a long time on pavement. They also have a tendency to let you slide some to the side when turning. That helps to prevent roll overs.
