Default drifting nitros

Like I posted in the nitro forum, in order to make a nitro drift all you need are some stage d wheels? and maybe a sway bar?

i assume you is asking?
get some either very hard slicks the harder the better, stiffen up the rear shocks and make sure you richen up the topend of your engine a bit.
also make sure you got plenty of airflow around the motor keep it as cool as you can.

what size are your wheels? the stage d hpi tires are 26 front and 30's on the back. read your instruction manual for proper size or get a ruler and measure them or replace wheels/tires with one's that fit your car.

or what you could do is make some diy offsets and then they should not hit the arms!
no before people start saying that once you have made diy offsets you cant put rubber tyres back on! this is rubbish as i ahve done it and it all depends on the typr of rim that you addapt.
to be honest i can make most rims into diy offset's and still run rubber tyres on them.
the modifications are simple.
if you need to knwo more just ask and i will do a detailed tut.

well my wheels i think are 30 mm in diametor while my stage d's are 26 mm, so im guessing thats the problem lol and i have a set of yokomo meshes with diy offsets although they are falling off so never use dollar store super glue.
