I got myself a set of See's for my old/new runner. I'm probably going to run losi step pins on the rear, simply because they are modern tires and can be replaced easily and they work well. I want to run something a bit more rare on the front since they probably wont wear down very fast.
What are they options to chose from for the front tire?
pics/links please, I need visual gratification

Re: Front tire options
Maybe that first post was a bit broad. I was thinking about running a nub or spike front tire, but not sure if they handle as good as the ribbed tires. There are some rare dashed ribbed and ribbed with perpendicular tread on them, but I'm not sure of their manufactures or if there are any available. I just thought I would try and get a visual on the different options I had, but I guess I will have to do some searching.

Re: Front tire options
I think the traction really depends on the surface that you are on, the front tire you were mentioning is a Yokomo front ( I have some around here somewhere ) for pics

Re: Front tire options
most likely going to be run on medium to lose dirt, and might see the rare hard surface.
I'm leaning towards using knobby tires
or a modern knobby tire such as the Traxxas
BUT, really like the Proline reinforced rib tires
I found a photos of one of Brandon G's buggies
I think wheel width may play a factor...here are the wheels I'm dealing with
Sorry for the repetitive photos admin, but I just copied the image link, so there were no extra photos uploaded.
Not sure yet, just looking for some feedback
