Default RE: CEN Premier wheel and tires


ORIGINAL: Perazzimx14

Hello,

I am looking for a set of 4 wheels and tires for my P4. I would not mind going with something larger in diameter so it will run better in the grass. I also need a new clutch bell as the factory one has spun from the gears. If I go with bigger tires do I get the 15/18 clutch bell of stay with the factory 14/17.

With the wheels and tires I would like to spend less than $40 total. Where is the best place to look (I have looked on ebay and cannot find anything for the P4 or the Magnum NX), and with the clutch bell does someone make a 1 piece unit as the factory one only lasted about 1/2 gallon of fuel.

Thanks,

Lance
If you go with larger tires you'll want less teeth on the pinion gear to keep the acceleration the same as with the smaller tires. However, I did the opposite - went from the bigger nx 3.0 magnum tires to the smaller stock premier 4 tires so I could run it at the clay track. I didn't change the pinion gears yet and it has plenty of acceleration and top speed for me. So I would just stay with lower 14/17 stock gearing. Those wheels/tires posted above look nice and you probably won't find a much better, while knowing for certain they fit your car. Want to get rid of your p4 tires?
