Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires I'm mostly on dry rock, and for that the Pro-Line Krawlers are fantastic. Even in g8 compound. As for mud.... I don't do mud. :lmao: |

Lol! I'm in the swamplands so it's pretty much unavoidable.. |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Quote:
I look at the curb scenario like so - real trail rigs typically can't climb a 5 to 7 foot tall vertical concrete wall... A lot of 1/10th crawler/trail rigs will be fine approaching a curb like that slowly from an angle, though! This stuff isn't 100% accurate to scale, R/C vehicles usually have more articulation than what they are meant to resemble. |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Quote:
Honestly, I would expect other people to be watching me judging by how enthused I was when I first saw a crawler going at it..haha. I hear ya, I can't wait to see how it goes.. |

it's still !.9" wheel but 5.4"tall, lol... Mounted on my Bronco, sitting at 9400+ feet.... https://i.imgur.com/eQec6o3l.jpg Imo the best all around tire in the Rc world is the Proline Tsl Sx. It gets beat by certain specialized tires, but does everything well. |

Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires So, I talked with my local shop guy and I'm probably going to be sticking with the 1.9" tires. I'm also going to probably go with the Krawlers with Crawling Innovations Dual Stage Foams. I'm thinking of doing soft foams in the front and medium foams in the rear. What do you guys think? |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Quote:

Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Soft front and Medium rear is also where I would start. Post up some pics when you get the rig in your hands. |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Quote:
especialy with any kind of overdrive get a different rig for curbs and pavement |

Cuz it's also going to be my daily driver..lol j/k. 😁 I'm not going to drive it much on the street but I may start on the street and go over a curb in order to actually be off road. That's just my laziness..haha |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires I got it last night! Decided to go with the Flat Iron tires instead of the Krawlers because they look super similar but the Flat Irons have more sipes. I also went with the Proline Dual Stage Foams because they had those in stock. The Crawler Innovation Foams would have taken at least a week to get in. I will post some pictures real soon! 😊 |
Re: Need Help With Deciding On Tires Here are some pictures finally, and yes, it got up that rock by itself by climbing the smaller rock first. Also took it through some mud and water and it absolutely dominates in that terrain. Lovin it so far! https://i.ibb.co/G2vGd3n/20200313-160556.jpg https://i.ibb.co/sH4mhhk/20200313-160604.jpg https://i.ibb.co/sH4mhhk/20200313-160604.jpg https://i.ibb.co/x3mr0QF/20200313-160616.jpg https://i.ibb.co/wNrtQxV/20200313-160620.jpg |
