Unhappy crt.5 bashing tires choice - 10.11.2008, 03:17 PM

I am to build my crt.5 and i will mainly bash with them. But after a close look at A Main Hobbies, the tires choice is relatively limited in this categorie of vehicule.
Lot of racing tires but no one for bashing.

I would like to have a badland style tire for 1/10 rear buggy wheel. Or paddle or something better than Losi step pin or proline bowties.

Thank you for your help!

David

Slash tires are decent for bashing. 1/10 buggy tires are generally for a 2.2 rim so you would be all set. Traxxas bandit wheels work.

Yes because the crt.5 has 12mm hex, and traxxas wheel (front/rear electric rustler and rear nitro rustler) have 12mm hex too.

But i want to keep it on scale and do not want to put 1/10 truck tire on it.

I think that i'll not having choice and must go with 1/10 truck tire, so i have make a choice, this will be this tire:
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXDT95&P=7

This tire have 4" diameter, so noomuch more than stock crt.5 at 3.5", and the width is the same at 1.9"

With Traxxas chrome 2.2 rustler wheel.

I've ever have them on a jato brushless and it's like run on the ice, absolutly no grip at all
This one is very agressive, i've try it on a losi xx-nt nitro and it was a blast to drive with this tire;http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXDT93&P=7

So far I like the slash tires best for all around, even though they are 1/10 truck tires they don't look bad on it. The Bandit anacondas are great on road tires, although the rounded tread surface doesn't put as much tread on the ground it also allows the truck to slide without flipping.

I like gladiators as well. That's what I'm currently using. Good for most any surface. They do suffer on hard packed dry surfaces when new, but get better as they wear down.


There's two sides to every schwartz, he got the up side and I got the down side.

I plan on putting 30 series Torque wheels with Badlands on my future CRT once Mike gets his new Chassis in stock. They're 5" so it'll give another 1/2" of ground clearance, just gotta gear down a little to handle the larger tires. I use these wheels/tires on my Rustler and they are the best!


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.
