1/10 off-road tires on RC18?
Hey guys need some suggestions to know if this is possible or not. I like running 1/10 tires on my mini because of the vast variety to choose from, but dont want to stay on-road. I want to know if there is any 1/10 off-road tire that will fit the RC18 before I go and buy another on-road set. I was looking at some mt tires but each might be bigger than my mini [X(]
So did anybody try it?
Quick reply would be much appreciated

Yeah, Sup Inverted
Ok guys.. Nevermind on the last question. What other off-road tires could I run other than the stock mt tires.
I just got tired of pin drive. Its just to fragile to put in and I keep making other grooves in the slot for the pin which rewen it completely.[:@]
So Are there any other off-road tires for my mini RC18 that run on hex drive?

Thats actually a good idea...... Thanks Mitchell91
Since rally tires are the same size as touring wheels just with a different type of rubber they would work great. Guess I'll be the first to try

Man I got to get those... They look awesome [8D]
Thanks for sharing SVT-ADRENALIN. Just a quick question though..... How do those tires do off-road all around? Traction, ect..

Ok guys I think I made up my mind on the tires......
I will get 2 pairs of these http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXGG35&P=7 to go with these rims http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXM954&P=7 .
Just want to get any last thoughts before I go ahead and buy. Anybody else suggest different tires?
