new tires for my cr-01
 
i was wondering what tires i should get that are capable and somewhat scale i was thinking hpi rock grabbers, stock venom creeper tires, or proline flat iorns.....

rock claws!!! if your looking for a taller tire go with the grabber or rover i wouldnt use a flat iron My losi tires will kill them any day of the week and the stock creeper tires " rigelines" i hear are worse than a flat iron and axial rock lizzard. i have had great luck with all losi tires and realy long wear with the rock claws

what about imex g-hawgs???? im not using it for serious crawling but more a trail truck also i want a scale tire but a good one on rocks

you lookin to keep 2.2s? i would say the flatirons if your wanting to stay somewhat scale. .. . i have heard these things do good on the rocks and they look great!!! however they are 1.9s

yes i want to keep it a 2.2 so far im actuly leaning twards hb rovers but am open to suggestions

IDnewcrwlr 05-15-2009 10:41 AM

the rovers are a very good tire imo, but are not at all scale. i ran them on my cr01 for some time and they were great however the way i had the suspension i had to trim the sh*t out of the fenders. but they are a good tire i recently switched to these foams and they do alot better than the stock foams imo. .. .

i have also read that people are having great results with this foam in the rover. .. .

The flatirons come in both 1.9 and 2.2. They are a nice scale looking tire - I am running them right now, they hook up pretty well IMO.

Go with Losi Rock Claws, they are awesome

FreshMeat 05-15-2009 12:26 PM

The Rock Claws just don't look scale to me - I am sure that they climb great though.

I am running Flat Irons on my CR. They work GREAT "thumbsup"... I have 3.5ozs of lead in all four corners with Axial stock beadlocks.
