What if i were to run it on a proline blazer body.On my 1;1 i run 44 boggers so im trying to replicate.

then the 1.9 should be about right. the blazer body is pretty close to 1.10 scale..

make sure you dont have 1.5 wheels. ive got rc4wd tires on stock axials wheels, as well as the oem steel types. i cant see much diffrence in either tire.

there setting here side by side.


i dont know. everything i own 1.9's fits on everything else 1.9

DON'T CUT YOUR TIRES!

Go to the hardware store and buy some 2" id black pvc pipe (4 or 5 bucks) cut out new rings that are the same width and they will mount up just fine.

The bead on the interco tsl is identical to the flat iron. I own both tires and they are both mounted on rc4wd OEM's.

If you are after mounting pro-line tires on rc4wd oems, then I will gladly post a how-to. Just not in this thread.

As for my take on this tire I have big hopes. I really like the way they feel and how sticky they are. It'll be a while before they see any action because my scaler isn't done yet.

Thanks! They turned out to be the perfect tire for my nikko hilux. Just a tad tall but they look so cool on it I can live with the height. Roughly 3-11/16".

I just got my 1.9s in and installed, will be running them this weekend and will post my feedback on them. I love the looks so far and I am sure they will perform better than the flatirons.

ran the truck yesterday for about 15 minutes before breaking my 4 link. All I can say is in that 15 minutes, I was trully impressed with how well the hook up on the rock and several other people commented the same. The rock was dry and some was wet as it had been raining lightly and they worked great. They seem to stay pretty cleaned out at well.
