Default Narrow 2.2 tires, max 4.20 diameter

Im building one new cool faster trail rig to have fun with.
I did buy cheap 2.2 alu bedlocks to this also

i use 2.2 in my comp crawlers

This trail rig will have normal scale body, and it will not allow huge tires like my comp rigs.
So i need buy new tires, 2,2 low profile

I have found great looking new tires



* Molded from RC4WD’s advanced X2S³ rubber compound

I have never try RC4wd tires, what is X2S3 rubber?
soft? supersoft? or medium?

I did found these here today
https://www.bigsquidrc.com/rc4wd-mic...z-scale-tires/

I would like to have soft ones

If you have to have 2.2 wheels i would streach a 1.9 class 1 tire on to a narrow 2.2 rim

Those are the softest compound that RC4WD sells.

It's also their newest compound, and the white foam inserts are also better quality and stiffer than their older gray/black foams.

Yes i have seen people do this.
Pitbull tyres are popular.

I believe also there is couple who buy cool 2.2 bedlocks
and stretch stock tyres to their TRX6.
I did see one TRX6 with nice alu 2.2 bedlocks and stretched 1.9 tyres.
Handling and grip was great, and it look so good.
