Anybody know plastic tires available for this car that aren't just rim minus tire?

If you put the "www." in front of that link, people can click on it to go see the car.

Those are 2.4" wheels/tires. You're probably going to have to convert it to a 2.2" wheel/tire to find anything like that I am guessing.

Thanks, but the car is pretty squatted as is (what with the tires that I had to cut off. The foam burst out of one of them while I was putting down laps at a local track. The stock tires were made for a brushed motor.)

Are you running it at a drift track? Curious why you want plastic tires.
 
I'm pretty sure that was a fluke. Not like you can do speedruns on a track. Anyway... maybe you're thinking of foam wheels? Like WickedFog said, plastic wheels are for drifting. No grip at all.

Nope. It's just that the current tires still have some rubber on them, and running on 2s, it's a challenge to even use the car on the concrete patch in my back yard if it's dry. So, I really just want to be able to slide it around more without soaking myself. It's purely for fun. ALso, it's AWD, plus I live in Bermuda. No drift tracks here, just a street circuit and racing buggy track.

If you can find a 14mm to 17mm hex adapter you could run the 1/8 scale Exceed drift wheels and tires or if you can find a 14mm to 12mm hex adpater then you could run standard 1/10 scale drift wheels and tires.

Worst case scenario, mount some pvc pipe over some tires that fit your 17mm hexes.

Honestly no you’ll need to find a 14mm to 12mm hex adapters to run 1/10 drift wheels they might look funky but it’s really your only option I’ve been looking for like 20 minutes and nothing for any of it these might fit but the inside where the driveshaft goes through might not fit so maybe you could drill it https://www.amazon.com/ARRMA-Wheel-...t=&hvlocphy=9002042&hvtargid=pla-946708373197
Arrma makes 12mm aluminum hexes for the Infraction, and all of the mega and 3S stuff: https://www.arrma-rc.com/en/product/wheel-hex-metal-12mm-4/ARAC9473.html
They are $11.99 from A-Main: https://www.amainhobbies.com/arrma-...9Z6Z9DUeTYZHMQBu71ezXxafajXbu_i4aAmvFEALw_wcB

For this truck, your best bet would be to ask about it on the Arrma forum: https://www.arrmaforum.com/ Those guys live, eat, and breathe Arrma over there.
