RE: Racing Tires
Which vehicle do you have? Also what kind of track do you run on? I would stick with LPR's if you want the most modern wheels. Usually 40's are to large for truggy gearing.

You never want to run 40 series tires on any truggy. They are like a inch too wide and tall, stick with the new LPR tires or MT style tires.

and then if you say the lpr's then ill go with them just thought they might give me some more trackin
but you guys never made a choice on the bowties or the crime fighters??

RE: Racing Tires
Holeshots might be a better choice. Either 3 will work fine to be honest.

RE: Racing Tires
I was lookin at those i couldnt find them in the LPR though
thanks but i dont know such a hard choice
I think i migh have to go with the holeshots maybe but i think the bow-ties might be a bit better
but what can i say havent ran either of them

RE: Racing Tires
dude i love the hole shot tires, they stick like velcro. i used mine with the suplyed foam in them before i put the diff oil and they didnt balloon solid all the way through the power band and with the xtm 28 in it.

Of course they won't fit. They're made for low profile rims. LPR rims run between $11-14 for a pair so what's the big deal?

there's no big deal , i just prefer the look of the rims that come with the truggy.
