Race Tires

[platgof]

I want some low profile tires to lower the truck for better handling and keep the tires from growing at high rpms. Please let me know what you are running!

1/2" offset Proline LPR wheels with LPR Bowties. They grip well on a variety of surfaces.

What he said & I like the Pro Line LPR Crime Fighters best for our track.

 

[platgof]

Can't find them.

try RCPlanet.com

they have alot of stuff for cheap including those 1/2 offset LPR rims and tires

Sorta OT but, LPR's seem the best for racing, what size should i go for if i mostly bash? LPR, stock or 40 series?

Also beadlocks or glued.

 

[Captain Chaos]

Pro Line Bad Lands for bashing.

 

[Valo]

So 40 series are only really good for posing?

What about beadlocks vs glue? Are all the little grub screws worth it?

 

[GH Racing]

yea Proline LPR wheels with LPR Bowties

 

[platgof]

The prolines say 17 hex, does the Revo 3.3 come std with 17mm hex? or do I need to buy a mod?

 

[Valo]

The platinum and newer 3.3 do, the older 3.3 doesn't and will require some wheel hex adapters.

 

[Scrogg]

The 40 series are good tires as well. I like them but the LPRs are more responsive and lighter.
The Badlands are awesome too but they will balloon a bit.

 

[platgof]

So if I have a REvo with the 15mm wheels, what tire would work without the adapters? I do not want any ballooning at all!

 

[RCnut]

i am running the crime fighter M3s and i have to admit ... they get some serious grip on loose and hard clay tracks.

 

[Scrogg]

You are not going to get rid of the ballooning issue completely.
If you still are running 14mm hexes just try a set of 40 series tires that you think will suit your driving conditions.
