You want tires that DO balloon up? You sure?

For concrete use only, go with these hpi phaltlines. They are sweet!

if you do want somthing that can also go off road then http://www.prolineracing.com/p-315-badlands-mt.aspx those would be a good bet for you, i've heard that hold up well on asfalt so concret they should be good and thier good for off road so i've heard

I recommend these:

My favorite road tire by far. I've run with guys that have Phaltlines and Road Rages and they dont measure up IMO. These arent the greatest lookers, but have a deep tread that wont wear out for a while. I've had mine for around 2 years, this is my second set of Road Dawgs and they hold up great!

You Could Try [link=http://www.hpieurope.com/piw.php?lang=en&partNo=4882]These[/link]

HPI Goliath.. They've got the tread shap of a road tyre, but the depth of an offroad tyre
they dont look asthough the would balloon very much either

Or theres [link=http://www.hpieurope.com/piw.php?lang=en&partNo=4874]These[/link]

They Have More Off ann offroad desgine but are med to not ballon

Hope that helps

i have these on my savy and they HOOK up on concrete! same for asphalt!


rclug they only have those in MT size though and the savy takes 40 series. the MT's look so small on there..... and you lose a lot of GC
