JConcepts Kyosho 3.0

[JohnnyOctopuss]

I'm buying tires here in a few.
These are the ones I'm wanting to get, dishes for the track instead of spokes.

Will these JConcepts fit my 1/8 Kyosho Inferno NEO 3.0 Nitro Buggy?

 

[DavidB1126]

Dont see why they wouldn't. Both are 1/8 buggy spec. The only real difference here would be offset but if it's a small difference it shouldn't really effect it.

I agree with @DavidB1126 . Offset is your only question.

 

[Littlemotor]

Yes.

Okay, he said it was just a very small difference so it shouldn't be an issue. I'm going to go ahead and order these. Thanks for everyone's help on this. This is my first car so I want to make sure I'm understanding what I'm reading on it

I think you'll be happy. They make great gear!
Sometimes its best to reach out to the seller directly for answers like these. You'll make a new friend if nothing else.
Most of the time, customer service with aftermarket RC is really good. Ppl want to sell the products they make.

Post some pics of the new kicks when you get them installed!!!

Thanks Mike, I definitely will. I should have her up and running today or tomorrow so I'll post some good pics with the new wheels and all dirtied up soon

They're dirt bites so I'm pretty sure they are directional tires, just letting you know

Def make sure they are facing the right way or that you are driving in reverse!

 

[Littlemotor]

They are definitely directional. They are also pre-mounts, so he can’t David them if he tried..

True.
I'm just too used to mounting up my own tires for carpet lol.

Directional is directional, it doesn’t matter what you’re “used to”..

I mounted one forward, one back... the car was REAL FAST!!! But only turning left.

 

[JohnnyOctopuss]

They were so expensive for 4 of them. Super expensive on top of my girlfriend's new rear fin and her shocks, my nitro and everything else ran me about $200+

Not to mention the price of both cars being around $400-$480 a piece...

You haven’t even gotten your feet wet…

I have a feeling.

Her four shocks are running me for $60 for the front two and $60 for the rears, just $25 for the fin , $82 dollars for my wheels, the nitro and glow driver and new plug set me around $100+. People do say it's expensive

Didn’t you just make the purchase on it-why (4) shocks right off the rip? Guessing Arrma or Traxxas.. those are some bigdog prices too lol… Must be the LHS, and not Amain, Firrce, Absolute, or Beach.. Damn that noise..

Well, my girlfriend got an Arrma Typhon 3s and the shocks bent on it with no serious racing or bashing so we are upgrading to the prolines and those are 60 dollars a set, hopefully it will be solid enough for her who only really races around the back yander and other dirt trails and so forth.

She can't really work on them herself so I'm making it as solid as I can for her.

As for my Kyosho, I've been studying others who have this car and what they did right off the bat to improve the performance and I'm trying to set it up as my first entry level racer before I go on and buy something like a Tekno so I can understand what the parts are, how the work and the mechanics of the machine
