Default CEN Premier wheel and tires

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

I have a set of four new larger wheels/tires available for $37 shipped. I use these on my Premier 4 since I mainly use it as a basher. These wheels/tires give the truck more ground clearance and better traction in more extreme offroad conditions. If you want to race or go fast on a track the factory Cen wheels are a better choice because the acceleration is better with the lighter wheels. But for bashing I prefer these ones for their extra ground clearance and bigger diameter:

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?

COOL Truck- I would also suggest going with FF102 and FF103 the CNC spurs- much more load on the drive-train from those big tires... looks great!

Chadr,

Sorry but my stock tires and rims are fried. That why I am wanting to change. Thank for the advice.

Thats what a 1/10 scale stadium right? Check out HPI's wheels for the MT2. They come with adaptors to work with any axle set up you have. also RPM makes the revolver wheels which work well and look cool too.

for a stock funfactor/NX, I like the proline masher 2000's on 2.2 rims. Much better traction than stock and quite light.

Or, if you mod the drivetrain to be a lot stronger... you can fit some big wheels on it
