Looks like they were cut away from a rim with a hobby knife. I think that's why there's no bead. Are they a very hard compound? They seem like something that would come on a Nikko or Radio Shack car. I don't mean that as an insult at all, but just what they remind me of. There are a few Nikkos I would love to have!

The opposite, they are really soft! They came with a bunch of late 80's / early 90's Schumacher, Traxxas and Yokomo stuff so I'm guessing they are of similar age. They definitely haven't been cut with a knife, I think crusaderlyf is right about them needing mounting on old fashioned three piece bolt together wheels...
Hi,
MANTOVA tyre.
These tyres are produced by COURNON, a French company.
They have the same profil than the 1/8 off road tyres, but don't have the same success.
I recently picked these tyres up and I'm not certain what they actually are
They are not OT-66s and from the pics I have seen of W-5032s these are different, the tread is almost more like OT-30s though these are not OT-30s, they fit on the regular...

The tires where used on shadow and aerostreak and have partnumber sb.014
Hi all, I have a set of truck tyres that came in a bundle of stuff.
They are 2.2 rims with what looks like a stagger rib pattern tyre. The truck tyres are the same size as regular stadium truck tyres, just half the width. The wheels take a flanged...

Proline 7055 narrow truck front tires, not sure what the wheels are. They look like buggy width.
Proline did make narrow one-piece 10T front wheels. The Vortex series. Not what you have shown.
I have a full set of 10T Vortex wheels (narrow and...
Does anybody recognise these tyres... my mate gave them to me inside a bag with the mini decal sheet that sometimes came with old Schumacher tyres, there was no header card & there's no markings on the sidewalls so i'm pretty sure they are not Shumy...

Thanks Dennis - that must be them, must admit I'm not familiar with the ARP brand..... they appear to be nicely moulded, & yes they are 2.2 & feel quite soft. I guess they were good in wet conditions?
Can someone help me by letting me know what tyre options there are for the standard JRXT 3 piece wheels,i read somewhere that the mounting is different to more modern tyres.. Thanks everyone sorry if this has been done before i couldn't find much...
Have picked up a brand spanking new set of AYK tyres. They are HI SPORT logo tyres with a 'V' pattern with sharp spikes. Does anybody know which buggy these were off? They look like 2.0inch also.
Thank you- Jason.

After seeing those, the You-G's were definitely different with a more squared off/flat spike as well.
I have a Losi XXcr Kinwald edition buggy (graphite & alloy bits) I used to race outdoors when it was popular round here, clubs closed so it's been in a cupboard for over 10 years. Recently found an rc club that is not too far away so decided to...

Took the plunge with Novak GTB2 ESC coupled with Novak Ballistic 8.5t Sensored Motor.
After looking around at various options decided on a pair of Turnigy Nano-Tech 5600 50c+ Lipos (HobbyKing) to race with. Very good value and I've seen a few quick...
I will be modifying this post as I can, but it is a personal reference for Losi Tyres I thought I'd share. Add info if you wish and I'll mod this post. Pics of treads are most welcome if there are none available!
