rc10t 3 piece wheels
I just had a quick question about the 3 piece wheels that came on the rc10t. Are they 2.2 and are you able to put newer type of tires on those rims.
I want to keep the vintage look to my rc10t but dont want to use old tires. i would rather use newer proline rubber.
Thanks.

Re: rc10t 3 piece wheels
Yes and yes. You just need to be cautious about how much power you put through the wheels. I'm not sure how well the 3 piece wheels will hold up if you're planning on going LiPo/brushless. Maybe someone else here has tried and could give some input...?

I haven't tried but I don't think they'll suffer that much from power, not any more than the 1/16th roll pin or so that's driving them . However, tires aren't glued in there, so this could be an issue at some point.adam lancia wrote:Yes and yes. You just need to be cautious about how much power you put through the wheels.

Re: rc10t 3 piece wheels
I had trouble with the current tires on the 3 piece rims because of the foams getting in the way of the seating of the bead no matter what I did, so they really likes spitting tbd tires off!
