i know they are truck paddles, but i got them for $5.00 a set and figured for $5 bucks i could test them out on a buggy. Obviously the buggy ones are non existant so i thought these would be my next best option.
i used the RPM car i have here since its the only one thats not currently in 100 peices lol
ideas/comments?

ya they are still technically "new" tires, just in the bargain bin for some reason.
I know they look a little big but when you compare a normal buggy tire and a truck tire side by side, the only real difference is its just slightly wider, and just a hair bigger in height.
im probably going to get some aluminum rims made up that are the truck rears and buggy fronts..
Anyone know if jps is still making rims/open at all? lol
