Default Foam tires for Vendettas?

What is the easiest way to get foam tires for some Vendettas? It looks like Vendettas are 12mm hex which should work with 1/10 TC wheels, right?

For the off-road Vendetta buggy and Vendetta ST, it's as simple as you describe: put on 1/10 touring foams. They come stock with 12mm hex

For the Vendetta TC, Duratrax makes foam tires, 30, 35, 40, and 45 shore are listed. Part numbers DTXC7675, DTXC7676, DTXC7677, and DTXC7678.

This place has what your looking for. Trued 1/10 scale foams are good to but these are a exact fit.

Hi I have a vendetta st . Will the vendetta 1/10 wheels bolt on to the st? Do you have to change the gear? Do the foam work packed dirt? How long do they last? Thanks

There is no such a thing as Vendetta 1/10 wheels. There are 1/10 sedan wheels. Both have the same 12mm hex so yes they will fit. If the wheels are the same size diameter as the Stock ST wheel then no you do not need to change the gearing. Larger the diameter small the pinion and vice versa. If you plan an running foams on hard packed blue grove then yes they will hook up. I take it your running oval?

Those RATFactor foams look great. I've also dealt with Duneland hobbies before. They are reliable, and the owner runs a vendetta too, so I would buy these in a heartbeat.

Oh man, $20/pr? I need 3 sets for 3 cars. I can get decent Parma 1/10 pairs for near 1/2 the cost so I guess I will have to go that route. Those do look nice though. Thanks for the help.

the bigger the wheel the morte power you will need... the smaller the less power...
