Default Drift tires?

Okay, so I don't know the difference between the different drift tires. I'm trying to find some that are like ABS, not alot of traction, not to slippery, just in between. I need the tires that come with the wheel and tire to fit the TC4. I don't want to make them. Please list the product. Something to drift like this http://youtube.com/watch?v=Rec6SeUJm...elated&search=

Well the two hpi tires are type-A and type-T. The type-a's are good for nitro, or brushless drifter, because they have alot of grip. The type-r's are good for electric drifters because they are not to slippery and can maintain a good speed, with alot od control.

And, if you're asking about tire difference, chances are you'd be waisting your money by buying them now because you're still a NOOB. Find some good ABS until you get your skill up. Those tires are great for competitions and photo ops, but sliding around for fun, they wear out UBER quick. You can compare those to real drift tires as far as longetivity...and it ain't that long.
