| how do these look?
these are from my old old old 1988 nitro brute from kyosho. and i was wondering if these would be good for crawler tires.. their 5 inches tall, 3 inches wide, has about 2 inches from where the the top of the tire is to the rim.. |

probably not, the tread pattern is definetly not the best for crawling and being so old theyre probably not very soft.

How soft are they? Maybe with some spray and some groving they might work O.k. If thats all you got try them.

They can probably be made to work out o.k.. I am not familiar with the tire. Is the rubber compound soft? What type of rig do you run? What rims will you use? Will you narrow the rims? I was unhappy with tires that were around 5 inches tall. The taller tires worked much better for me. It also depends on the terrain you run. Do you by chance ride bikes on the gnarly North shore style trails? I'm from Colorado and do alot of technical trail riding and a bit of the freeride/resort/downhill stuff. |
