Hi all,
I see the original rc10T tires listed as 2.2" will modern 2.2" truck tires fit the original rims ?
something like these?

JConcepts Ellipse 2.2" 1/10 Stadium Truck Tires (2) (Silver)

Jconcepts, Schumacher, Panther, and Pro-Line still make tires for 2.2 stadium truck wheels.

Just be sure not to order short coarse tires.

And be careful not to buy crawler tires. Even though they might be 2.2, they are probably for multi-piece beadlock wheels.

Thanks. It sounds like I can keep the original rims and just get new tires. It seems a lot easier to get parts for a 10t be a 10b.
