It's not my tf2 lol. I just grabbed it off of google. The tires are pretty scale size, according to RC4WD: • Outer Diameter: 4.1in / 104.3mm That's a 41" tire in 1:1. Many defenders have 35"s but the tires you have now are 38" scale. Those extra .3" will get you better traction, more scale looks, and it won't rub like crazy. However if you run a 4.3"+ you'll probably rub. I know a TF2 has about a 4.5" max before you start getting some friction. |

I'm just making a bunch of guesses lmao. But you'll have room for 4.1" since it's not that much bigger. I'll probably pick up a set for my Jeep which is currently waiting for a new system...still. -___- Might as well pick up a set and put them on the scx10 if you don't like them on the d110 |

The exact size of the Dirt Grabbers is 3.83" OD. (Why the heck do I know that from memory lmao) With a 4.1" you should be cutting it close but it won't rub. |

4.45" might work but you'd probably rub. My guess is a 4.3" and up and you'll rub. 4.3"<4.45" Conclusion- you'll probably rub. If you are willing to sacrifice the cash you can try the tires out but a 44.5" 1:1 tire is HUGE on a truck, especially a Land Rover Defender 110. I've never seen anything larger than 40" on the trails anywhere. These look like they're about a 45"-48" |

It's not a Defender 110 but you get the idea lmao. If you want a huge power to weight ratio like I do then the large tires would benefit you but if you want this to be a shelf queen then keep smaller tires on it. Large for looks, small for performance. That's why I call 2.2 training wheels because it's so easy to drive over obstacles. You don't need 5.75" tires because it's just too easy to plow over stuff. Back to the P:W ratio, I've done some math and found that since I will have 1.2 horsepower on a 5.2 pound rig, I will have (about) a .231 ratio. That's like 850-900 horsepower if I had that ratio on a 1:1 2012 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited. That's more than I wanted! I wanted about 800 and a .201 ratio and I got .231. That's amazing... Now I want this system even more! I needz moneys! |

Yes. 1.7 is a good size. I'm actually going to get those same tires for mine. By the way, what happened to "shelf queen"? They normally don't see any run times lol |
