Here's something a little taller, somewhere between 5.5 and 5.75" tall http://xtreme-rc-hobbies.net/store/p...products_id=39 They're a little spendy, but they work well on the rocks too. Also the workmanship is top notch  Here's another option in the 5" range http://www.shop.rpphobby.com/product...&productId=770 Or if you want to go for the real tractor tire look, check these out (cheap, too) http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXDT90&P=7 You might be able to put some clod tires and wheels on there. I'm not sure how tall they are, but they look like tractor tires |

Have you considered cutting down the stock tires and rims?

| http://www.imexrc.com/servlet/the-56...dsh-RIM/Detail I had them once before they were truly awesome in mud. Really tall, won't leak in water through the tread like cut tires. They do cost a lot though. Last edited by Mnster; 11-22-2008 at 10:11 PM. |

I was searching aroung on the net and found some possibilitys, peal tractors, the rear wheels look too big but some of the front ones have the chevron tread and I've seen sizes around 7". www.pedaltractorparts.com/ http://www.greentoys4u.com/johndeere...altractor.aspx attaching them to an rc axle may be tough but anything is possible with a little thought and work the writing on the side of the tire says 8x1.75 http://www.pottersfarmtoys.com/scale...lastic_rim.htm Last edited by flatfender; 11-24-2008 at 04:02 PM. |

rototillers, bit big on this one, but other lawn and garden equipment might have something. www.newhavenpower.com/BCS718.html Last edited by flatfender; 11-24-2008 at 03:49 PM. |
