|  Tires?
I just bought a Redcat Everest 10 and Im hearing that the tires are no good. Does anyone have any suggestions on what tires would make a good replacement? Thanks

I've tried many different tires and I always come back to the same ones. My choice also has to do with the fact that I prefer running licensed scale tires but imo, Proline Super Swampers for the win every time. If I was going to run a non-licensed tire it'd probably be the Proline Hyrax's. |

You need to consider where you're running and what you want to achieve. No one set will be great for everywhere. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk |

I've owned multiple Everest 10s (between me, my children, and as a loaner rig) and have experience with a few different tires. A larger tire is helpful due to the relatively large pumpkin the Everest 10 has. Unfortunately a larger, stickier tire puts a lot more stress on the wheel and your stock wheels won't last too long. If you want a decent tire/wheel combo that is pretty cheap, I'd look at the Duratrax Deep Woods. For better performance, but significantly more expense consider Pitbull Rockbeast IIs or Proline Super Swamper (XL) with aftermarket foams and some aftermarket 2.2 wheels. If you don't care about a scale appearance, you could consider the ruptures (I don't have personal experience with this tire, but have heard good things).

heres a short vid of my e10 on ruptures front chissles rear going over verticle the ruptures hold on the ruptures are almost 6" tall im still running the factory plastic locker and a have never opened up the front axle and this rig is 3 years old the chissl3s are 5.4" tall tire it dosent have as much grip as the ruptuers but still way more than stock the differance in tire size acts like over/under drive making the rig very predictable https://youtu.be/Mogc5pF5Md4 |

just got a pair of ruptures myself and am absolutely impressed with them and I'm coming straight off a set of hyraxs. cheap and great traction my guess is they are not popular cuz of the size

Try the tires and see how they work for you. They make a variety of tires because not every tire works in every terrain or driving style. Frankly, I just go for a tread pattern I like and make up for traction with wheel speed...   |
