Isn’t way to big on the 1.9 scale rig? I however like the Pro-Line Interco Bogger 1.9" Rock Crawler Tires w/Memory Foam

He wants to use them on a 1/6th scale vehicle, not a 1.9"...

They are 2.2" and 5.43" in diameter.

I was referring to his SMT10 Mega Truck build. Didn’t realize he did a TRX4 too. I just watched a video and he did use the Genius tires on his SMT10.

I stand corrected, sir!

(I wasn't aware he did a SMT10 build)

He refers to the TRX-4 Sport as his mud truck, but seems unwilling to actually run it in mud...

(like me, he hates the idea of clean-up afterwards)

I can tell you they're garbage on the rocks and the sidewalls are paper thin so they fail easily.

Never tried them in the mud. I have a set of jconcepts sling kings and they're a pretty decent compound (I have blue) with a nice sidewall so they should be good.

It might just be me, but I find that to be true with the majority of RC4WD tires except for their 1.55's.

I'll have to take your word for it I'll never own such tiny tire. The only non 2.2 I own are the 1.9 I use as spares on my bombers just for ballast.
