| I think a little taller than Moab Xl's...but not to crazy...I think you were on the right track with 7.25"...Definetly put some sidewall ribs for support in them though....thats gonna be alot of sidewall and without it these things will just fold. |

| Hope they are better than all the other tires RC4WD has shat out into the market... Every pair I've owned has looked real cool and very detailed but sucked for rockcrawling  IMO .... |

These Tires are an even newer Compound which they nailed it this time. The Compound is better then the XL's thats for sure. So far testing has shown them hanging with Losi's and Panthers. Which is good enough for me. | |
