To tape or not to tape
 

Hello,

I'm ready to glue my tires (Dirt Bonz, for a converted Revo) and I'm wondering whether I should tape them or not.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

i will always tape my tires from now on...makes a big difference. esp. if you decide to go brushless later.

Hello,

What do you use?

Loa

use something like duct tape or gorilla tape.

Cool, thx!

I'm sure you know how to tape up but here a picture thread I did over at the traxxas forum about it. The twist on this tape job is I add some roof patch to the duct tape. This stuff doesn't stretch at all. Duct tape will not stretch much but when the tires at such a high revolution it has seem to help keep the tires from stretching any and pull away from the tape job. Actually work better on the larger tires. You can add a strip to each side of the tape without loosing much of the surface for the tape to stick to. Anyway I've had good success with the added material.
