This is probably not the first time someone asks this question… probably not the last time…
Are there any company that makes new and fresh 1.9” front tires to our old buggies?
I have only found CRP tires…
Just looking at doing some CR upgrades to my first gen XX, and I was wondering if the front axles are longer to accommodate the wider wheels/tires, or are the axles the same and it's simply a wider rim to accommodate the wider tires?
Am trying to look into changing the standard 2.2 'mini spike' tyres on my Nitro 10 Mk3 for full spike. There's plenty of places to get tyres and inserts, but I'm unclear on what I'm going to need for wheels. I know how real tyres are sized (width...
Ignoring the compound, just looking at tire tread patterns. What would you prefer for use on grass - square blocks, or round spikes?
I guessblocks will last longer in any environment as they are chunkier and each block is typically larger and...

If you're talking about racing competitively with them. I usually get maybe 4 meeting out of a set of rear minispikes before they drop off too much. So that's 16 races for me. You can rejuvenate them though half way through their lifespan by...
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...

Thanks for the info Johnny. Yeah, I'm still in the military trying to stick it out for the long haul. Already past halfway but damn if these sensitive soldiers and politics are killing me! Hard to be an NCO when you can't cuss or even touch a...
Are the 1.9 tires the tire that fit the really old RC10? the jelly bean rims. and if so is there a tire made now that you can use to replace them with and still get.
And the same for the front tires. What size are they and can you still get...

Well I don't even see a set on the bay. I saw a set of fronts but they wanted $38.00. so i'm out at that price.
so I guess the 1.9 are for the TQ rims?
Anyway I went in the barn today and found some NIP CRP front tires and a set of Trol 1.6...
Finally found a new pair of the 'infamous' TR-31's from the 1991 IFMAR worlds on eBay. I remember reading all of the drama surrounding these tires in old issues of RC Car Action as a kid.
Displayed in my case with 3/16 axle RC10 rims and MCI Yokomo...
