These are some other alternatives that fit the original Optima rims...the original Optima Option House option tires W1874...they even have Sand Super side walls.

Nice. I have a used but decent condition set of those on one of my Optimas. Can you still find them for sale anywhere?

I'm having a terrible time finding a set of street tires - foams or radials - that'd be a direct fit on a Turbo Optima re-release. Ideally I'd be able to find a set of pre-mounted tires/rims all ready to go, but all I can seem to find are really...

I still haven't solved this problem...perhaps in part because after shelling out nearly $200 for 2 sets of tires for my 1/5 Kraton 8S, my R/C tire budget was maxxed out for a while :shock: I'm still on the hunt for a blacktop tire solution for my...

Hi all,

I am interested in getting my old ultima and turbo optima racers up and running again and would like to know what are the best options for current wheels and tires? I tried to search, but tires and wheels are apparently too generic of...

Last post

mm, that one set is for touring cars: too narrow and small diameter. Otherwise, indeed: also buggy wheels that use12mm hexes are plenty available
Ah, that's true Mr. ED. I should mention I'm planning to pick up that set for when I use my on-road...

I'm wondering if the hex on the Optima are the same that are on the standard SCT wheel/tire setups of today? Does anyone had both that they could snap a photo of while on their car if they do fit? I'm wondering how it would look with that setup and...

Last post

Interesting. What body were you trying to fit with it? Any chance you could shoot any pics of it with that setup?

Are Lazer ZX(-R) tires the same size as Optima tires? So will they fit onto a set of plated Optima wheels?

Last post

I thought the Turbo Optima and all the Optima Mid tires are 1.9 :?:
You're right, I'm a veritable source of misinformation lately! Anyway, the reason why I said 2 is because 2 tires seem to fit Turbo Optima wheels just fine. Here are some 2...

Do any of you run your Optimas with vintage tire/wheels and the chain? I love the look of the Sand Supers and with the new reproductions they are pretty affordable. I'm restoring another Optima runner and I was thinking about keeping more parts...

Finialy I found a set of new org optima tires. Wow, I'm not sure if I should even take them out of package or hide them in a safety deposit box, lol. I have never been one for keeping items in packages, but I am having trouble opening the package.

Last post

slap them bad boys on a shelfer. but dont let the ride sit on the wheels other wise theyre worth 150 lol love the tire but not the size.

Ok I'm at my wits end with this and I would like any help. I missed the boat when they were making tires and rims for the RC10 a few years back. I know there are rims still being made by JConcepts but tires are the bane of my existence. I'm willing...

I did dye the wheels for the Houge before I painted them.
Totally forgot about that until just now
They took dye as well as any other nylon I have done.

Thanks Chuck, that’s good to know. I could order a few sets in white then dye...

I have seen a couple on here and we've discussed that they are rare. I have a handful and it's neat to see all the different tire treads. Just too bad some of mine are glued to old rims and fearful to remove them intact. I'd like to see what tires...
