| Tall - Skinny ?
Wanting a taller, but narrower tire ! ? I have the 1.9 Ripshaw's currently... mount on Axial bead locks. But I would like a narrower tire... I do not want to go down to 1.5 to get that. Nor have to cut up or modify tires. Can anyone tell me what the narrowest 1.9 tire is ? Think the Ripshaw's are about 1.5" in width. I know the Trepador's are about the same width... and slightly taller... But am holding off in hopes there is another option ? |

Look nice... but was wanting to stay with my weighted beadlocks I'll guess there are few 1.9 skinny tires available in the market I'll have to check into the rok lox's or bogger's then. Are those any narrower then the Ripshaw's ? thanks for the replies folk --------------- those require RC4WD wheels for proper fitment ? Last edited by TacoCrawler; 07-26-2013 at 09:48 PM. | |

Boggers fit fine on stock axial wheels..and the trepadors are skinnier than ripsaws...I love the treps cause of the look and profile they have!

these are weighted beadlocks as well. you can put the 1.55 tires on any 1.9 beadlock. however the internal beadlock steelies just make it a whole lot easier. no stretching the bead into the groove is required on these. | |

Boggers. I have seen the treps in action and I was not impressed.

I've had great experience with trepadors. they are nice tall and narrow. OR since you are not impressed by them you could wait it out for the new pitbulls in 1.9.
