Tire Problems

[coolhandcountry]

Man. This is the second tire that has come apart on me. I want to know if someone else is having this problem. What can I do to stop this? Any suggestions on a new tire.

Try Serums trick, placing duck-tape around the inside of the tyre.

When replacing the tyres try to remove as much of the wheel paint as possible as gluing the tyre onto it isn't very effective as the paint breaks away.

Get some hard compound tyres. :)

is it because it is balloning? when you get a new tyre i would turn the tyre inside out and put a layer or 2 of duct tape on the inside of the tyre, that should stop it happening. What tyres are those?

[coolhandcountry]

They are revo sport traxx. Mounted on a 40 series rim.
I thought about he tape trick. I have them mounted so it is kind of hard to do.

Any suggestions on other tires. I think I going to change up. I was thinking bowties crime fighters or something. Like to stay 40 series.

Cool if you race you will absolutly love the crime fighters. I also have some panther pythons mounted on 40 series rims that are great.

[coolhandcountry]

I don't race there hippie. I do like to go fast and handle good.

[RC-Monster Mike]

I like the pythons myself! Along ith bowties and crime fighters.

What do you have in a 40 series mike? like to have some rims to. The cheyennes seem to be good.

Is this the second tire of the same model? If so, did you purchase both tires from the same place at the same time?

Do you drive over broken glass and/or hot coals, frequently?

And finally, how friggin' fast are you going? :D


Just seems odd that two tires have come apart (I'm assuming the other tire did the same thing).

Perhaps it's the tight fit of the tires? those are not original 40 series right?

heres what happens to the original savage tires.. (made from poop if you ask me..)

Thin-ish MT rubbers like to rip when the foams get wet.

Yep, those Savy tires are very soft, Serum. I just had to remember your "faked" pic of the ballooning tire.... :eek: Man, that one would have been a healty slap inna face :eek:

My first tire blew out on my maxx with a 7xl. Had it geared with enough cells to run about 60mph. I am not sure what I geared to run now. It blew out in the video posted under extra long emaxx. It is at the end of the video. hard to see. I was in the donut. The tires where bought same place different times. the last one never broke the bead like serum. It ripped and left the bead.

you guys are so rough lol. i've never ripped a tyre, and i've balloned the stock savage tyres alot with my savage but never managed to rip it lol

[coolhandcountry]

We are not rough. You just to easy on your truck. :D Can I borrow it for a couple days. I treat it like it was mine. LOL

HAHAHA wat would i get back? lol half a body? lol
