|  Best tires for Axial Scx10 for use in sand and grit/gravel?
I recently got an scx10 jeep rtr and have been running it stock for about two months to this day. I have now decided to make some mods to it and one of them will be tires. The standard wheels are good but i want something better for the sand, i have seen desert duelers on a youtube comparo but cant find them to buy. Something that would work on gravel would also be great, there is a fine gravel hill near my house which is great to crawl on but I don't ever get the grip i need. All help would be appreciated! |

Paddle tires work great on sand, search for Proline Sand Paws, i've used some paddle tires for a short course in my scx10 too, they fit without any problems. As for gravel you should take a look at Proline Gladiator and Badlands, both are only available for 2.2 wheels, and the Badlands may be a bit tall for the SCX10 (129mm diameter) |

Wide tire with a mild tread pattern so it doesn't dig would be preferred. Don't get sand paddles if you don't have the wheel speed to utilize them.

Thanks! I found a sand set that have grooved front and paddle rears, wouldn't these just dig in? Especially on a slow moving crawler? Thanks from the Middle East! |

Sounds like a set of 2.2 proline flat irons would be ur best option. If you wouldn't mind having a second set of wheels and tires that is... They are wide, not too tall, not too aggressive, and they work good. |
