1:18 - Weighted Tires

[gr8archer]

I am playing around with the idea of adding BBs to my tires on my 1:18 Nylint. Has anyone did this? If so how many did you find worked the best? I tried to do a search but they have a word size limit... so if you have any information I would greatly apreciate it.

Thank You.

its been done, i read 50 bb's for each front tire...i havent tried is myself.

in my opinion i would use a large metal wrist rocket ball one in each tire, that way it will be at the lowest point of the tire at all times i have been thinking about that since i got the crawler:mrgreen:

i would go to wal-mart get a pack of big lead wrist rocket balls and try it out, i was just at wal-mart and forgot the get a pack:x

I ran 50 in each tire with good results.

I run 300 in each front and 50 in rears

I've got 60 in each front wheel. It seemed to help out.
