Default 1/10 scale 38 inch military tires

Hey guys I want to get some different wheels and tires for my axial scx10 ii 69 blazer. I wanted to go with rc4wd 1.9 rally wheels. I’d like to find the scaled equivalent of 38” military tires. Can u tell me what the closest match for size would be that would work with these wheels

Well here's the deal...

The Axial K5's 12" wheelbase scales out to 8.6:1 of an actual fullsize 1st gen K5's 104" wheelbase, so for a 38" tire, you'd be looking for something right at 4.4" tall. I know that my RC4WD Trail Rider's (Yokohama Geolander MT replica) are spot on at that height, I'm sure that there are plenty more that will fall within +/-0.1" of that.

I forgot to ask, is there a specific tire that you're looking for? I know my old Michelin 11r16 XZL's were about 38" tall, RC4WD makes those for a 1.9" wheel at 4.23" tall which would look like 36.6" at 8.6:1. https://store.rc4wd.com/RC4WD-Michel...es_p_4944.html

edit again: here's another at 4.4": https://store.rc4wd.com/Militia-19-A...es_p_5678.html

Using the scale of 1/8.6, your tire size works out as a 4.38" x 1.48".

Here's a helpful tool, https://tiresize.com/converter/

For a military looking tire, this may be the closest to that size, https://store.rc4wd.com/RC4WD-Michel...es_p_4945.html

Hard to tell by your pic but they look like TSL's. Here are some Proline TSL's

These rims look close too, https://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/ssd00266.htm
