Help guys, want new tires for my truck
hello, 2 weeks ago i bought a duratrax rtx27,it cut in half from $400 down to $200,[X(] so i figured why not?even if i have to spend money on it it's still a great deal.so i broke it in and everything and im running in and jumping it, but have a few problems.1:when it gets to half tank or below and i let it go down to idle it'll just die.or if i brake going to turn nd dont gas it right away it'll die, as long as i keep giving throttle it runs fine but dies when i let off for a second or two.only at half or below though.2:in the grass and on road the tires dont' grip too well, i noticed they are 17mm hex and i looked around and that's sort of a weird size.i want tires to grip in grass and on road, mainly grass though.im not a big racer at all but plan to head out to a track near me and try it out, i think i'll like it, but will this combo work?or any tires with these rims?or will i have to get different rims?just want more grip in grass.

The last 3 tires you put up there are 2.2 and they will not fit an MT wheel, The way your talking about an aggresive tire the only one I like is [link=http://xtm-dealer.com/zencart/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=23&products_id=652]MOAB XL[/link] good luck and HAPPY RC'en

RE: Help guys, want new tires for my truck
Did you try turning the throttle stop screw clockwise to increase the idle. There a three screws on the carb. One is the HSN, then there is the LSN and the last one is the idle stop screw. I always set the idle stop screw after the engine has warmed up.
