hobao hyper gpx4 new foam tyres
 

hi guys have just worn out my rubber tyres and thinking of buying som foams tyres. just dont know which ones or brand will fit my car plz help!!

I believe this is the same car as the Ofna GPX4 on road car 1/10th scale. If it is then you can buy tires at Tower Hobbies or Amain hobbies amongst others. Jaco makes something called Nitro shoes, foamies in various shore ratings. Also HPI makes rubber tires that they sell their as well. Team Sorex makes tires, foam as well.

would these fit my car. And do they come with rims

RE: hobao hyper gpx4 new foam tyres
 

the actuall fitting for my wheels is a hexagon shape

Go to this site and search for Jaco 1/10 nitro it will bring you to the tires I am talking about. Shore 35 all around will work well. Depending on your car set up you can use 35 shore and 40 shore will work as well. You can try them 35 shore in the back and 40 up front. If you dont' get enough steering reverse them or adjust chassis.

P/N LXVCB1 and LXVCB3 are the Jaco part numbers.

But these are the tires that will fit your car. They fit the 12mm hex drives that are on your car.

thanx heaps mate

also remember that 26mm fit on the front and 30mm fit in the rear, so you cant really swap them. get like a lower shore(softer tire) for the rear and a higher shore(harder tire) on the front. it worked best this way when i has driving one of this.

Thanks for telling me that. I just bought this car and assumed I could use 30mm all the way around. Alot of my other Nitro cars can use the same all the way around.


Thanks again.

Well, a car could have 30mm fronts and 26mm rear, but when you look at it, its gonna look weird! Usually harder shore rating goes to the front, softer for the rear, but it all depends on how it handles. Just my 2 cents (i dont know why people say .02 cents, that's a really small quantity, just stating the fact here!)
