Tyre tips for MN82

Yes, with an adapter though

WPL uses a 5mm hex. SCX24 wheels are 7mm hex. So what hex adapters are you running? Just to clarify for the OP

AliExpress. They fit well.

Yes, I am a bit confused about adapters if I'm honest.
Are WPL and MN both 5mm hex and will the tyres fit the existing rims? Apparently they're a different size on the inside and out which seems a bit odd

Your stock wheels should be 5mm. The wheels Warby showed on his are a 7mm hex. So if you buy those adapters, you can use SCX24 wheels and tires and you will find a lot more options to choose from. They are likely a lot cheaper on aliexpress, but they sell them on Amazon...

I'm really looking to keep the cost to a minimum. Are there any wheels and tyres which are a straight swap and which aren't too big? I like the scale look of the originals and don't want a monster truck!
I think WPL also use 5mm hex right?

No idea what other wheels and tires would be a direct swap. Yes, the WPL wheels will fit it, as they are 5mm. But you'll find no better selection with WPL stuff. It's just not a popular RC, and is not supported by the regular aftermarket companies like Injora, Hot Racing, etc.

I went for these as the reviews say they're much softer than the NM originals. £5.32 including tax!
