Take a gander

Mostly rears as I race 4wd buggy more and had been racing it longer than 2wd
But these are just old worn out tires. Practice/burner/mess around type tires. Def won't make a full race day
The carpet set is Schuey mini pin rears and jcon fuzz bite fronts. Have ok life in them and can hook up ok depending what carpet your track has.
All of the clay/slick pairs are mix of old proline primes, jconcepts octagons and just some other random old treads. some had been ran over with compound so much and heated so much that the rubber is super soft and you can see the insert, can still be ran but in a race, theyll mostly fall off the traction chart half way through a 5 minute run (just from experience)
There are some bar type tires in there but the wheels that they're on have a small hex. I'm guessing they're a 8mm hex. 12mm hex is standard these days.
Half of these tires I just got from a buddy of mine that did RC a long time back and owns a shop.

What are you thinking on pricing?
 
Free? As it is the unwanted and free thread. 🤷‍♂️ 🤔

In the first attached pic I got most of those tires/wheels for free myself. The set of carpet tires I got used on a used buggy that I used for 2 race days before I got my own personal set. And there is a set of slick-ified Jcon Ellipse bars that I bought and mounted on my own. But free, bc tbh, they aren't worth much on just how worn down they all are. I love to hoard and keep onto stuff but I can never see myself using my old tires as this collection has grown over the past 2 years lol.
The 3rd pic has a set of truck traxxas anaconda tires, which thinking about it I may keep those since I need a burner set for myself since I just got 3s batteries lol. Has some DE racing SCT wheels and other odd sized hex wheels.

Maybe just paying for shipping but I currently don't have a box to ship it in + i currently don't know when I can get it shipped out.
 
actually looking at it from a different angle I dont think it would be fair to give you the slicks bc I don't want you to be bummed out when you do go for a practice day and they might be inconsistent and traction levels fall off after like 2 laps. But, your call.
Ideally the only practical running set would be the carpet pins I got tbf.
I just need these out of here lol. they be taking space under the workbench. like alot. 🫠

Other racers depending on how they're like, they might use a set of tires for 2 race days before getting new ones and lending them off. Myself, I run the sets I have to the ground before I get new ones. 🤣
And to get the best results for the track its 100 percent better to get new tires no matter what. Unless you just need a burner set for bashing out in the street or alley per say.

I'd be happy to get those! I'd be fine with all of them and I understand they aren't race ready by any means. And I've got a bit before I think I'll be ready to race so practice laps is gonna be it for me for a while. I do need some for just quick spins down the alley since the track is an hour drive. Let me know when you find a box and I'll send you my address and get shipping figured out!

You could also run down to your local track and I am willing to bet a couple guys down there have some old sets you can have. At my local carpet track, they have free new-ish tires for people to grab and use.

At my old hobby shop back in 2005-20012 they sold used tires $7 a pair I think it was. Did great burnouts on my rustler. 😆

Everything in red is going to a new home or going in the trash. Various wheels & tires. all 12mm hex. Some buggy, short course, and a set of slicks.

Also a DX3S 3-Channel DSM Radio. It's in rough shape but it works and it's free if someone wants it.

Ask questions if you got em.

Then antenna doesn't move and has cracked. Works fine, but might be a problem for distance?

Bad picture and it's dirty. Screen works, a few minor scratches but you can see the life it's had from the wear on the edges.
