Website states that the diameter is 62mm so think that may be wider than 2.2....

I think the 62mm they state is to the top of the lip/ridge, and that 2.2s would fit. I don't know of any 2.44" tires. :?

Good on you for giving this a go mate - god knows it is a very small market, as I said above - if it floats someones boat they will but it !!

Lovin those wheels, any plans for the other Hot Trick stuff?

Cheers

Dear Darryn,
Yes, it's me. It is really been a long time! How are you doing?
It is ok my brother, your comment is welcome! I understand the product got different values in people's mind. Don't worry~
You know what~ we did a lot of tests for Hotshot and trying to kill Optima ~ the competitor who kick Hotshot out of the race in 1980s. And we thought the Hot trick kit is the most helpful one to improve Hotshot's performance. Our Hotshot could achieve 40Km/hour by using 540 white motor plus MC330 ESC(test under laser gun). It is not quick enough to kick Optima, but also not too bad. 8)
We have a big club is TAIWAN and have the race once a month(or 2 months), the Hotshot team is more and more strong now :lol:
~Until last time some of our competitors changed Optima to "Top force". :cry: :cry: :cry:

The diameter is measured through the outline. It fits to most popular TAMIYA & Kyosho 1/10 buggy tires. Such as TAMIYA #53878 #51241, or Kyosho ZX5.

Just so you know, I wasn't knocking your efforts, as I know all to well that producing parts in small numbers drives up cost. I guess, I would have just hoped that the price wasn't driven up that high.

I do respect and appreciate your efforts. Nicely done.
I am not here cause I am playing photographer and on my mountain bike.

Don't worry, I understand. I'm very sorry we didn't meet your target price. :oops: But we will do our best to let our customer satify with what they paid.

BTW, we provide special service to red buggy. We don't have any minimum order limitation. If anyone need specific part to restore their red buggy, we will be very glad to help. 8)
