Stampede 4x4

[Revrentzero]

What kind of wheels and tires will fit my stampede 4x4 i want so good tires for the track( carpet track ) and something good for smooth streets.

I suspect with a high bite surface like carpet that you will be traction rolling a lot due to the high center of gravity of the Pede 4x4.

However, if I as to run a Pede 4x4 a lot on smooth streets and carpet, I would give the 2.8" Anacondas a try.

They are for the Jato rear and you would need them for both front and rear. Same diameter as the stocker on the Pede 4x4.

Another option is to use foam tires. Again, you would need to use rears on all 4's.

^^ Yep Rob is dead on, I'd try the Anacondas unless you're racing, the foams will wear quickly. Also as mentioned, watch for traction rolls. Not sure if the stock Pede has the option, but if it does, lay the shocks out at more of angle, lowering the truck, and run stiffer springs or that body's gonna take a beating.

Surprisingly, the Jaco foam tires I linked don't wear as quickly as you might think.

My son had them on his Rustler when he raced it on asphalt in the novice class. He ran them for 6 full days of racing and they don't show any signs of wear.

Wow, that's impressive Rob. I wouldn't have thought the foams would hold up like that. Man I wish there were somewhere to race here, I miss it sometimes.
