New scale wheels and tires from Duratrax

[TwistedXT]

Here is the soon to be sold Duratrax Evader DT truck


Yes - those are copied BFG all terrains! Cant tell what scale though? looks to be 1.9ish

Tower has the rims (set of 4) for $8.99 and the set of 4 tires for $12.99


i for one will be picking up a set. if even only for looks.

Looking at the pics - they look to be 1.9 2.2 hybrid style rims and tires like the Slash and such.

Agreed which greatly reduces the selection of wheels.

And that being said, am I the only one who thinks that the different size inner/outer is the dumbest design to hit R/C since...like ever?

That is actually a cool looking truck! I like the tires and that even looks like a working spare tire.

Check it! Watch the video.

It's 1/10th scale so the tires could be 2.2 inner 1.9 outer but the specs are left off of the list. It looks like a blast to drive!

I think it would be even more attractive if it had a solid rear axle.

i wish they are bigger than 1.9 so we can have a tall scale tire.

well i seen a pic of the dt next to the slash blitz and st and the tires on the DT were abt the same height as the SC trucks tires maybe a tad skinnier...rough estimate on size

I would have to agree, it seems like they were made that way to kill cross-comparability. though I'm sure they have some reason for making them like that, I would guess the shorter inner sidewalk causes the tire to be stiffer in turns or something to that effect...?

This and the knuckles on the 4wd trucks are bigger needing clearance
