First Set of New Tires - Rovan Excavators

[lovedr79]

Just got a new set of Front tires for my Rampage TT. I only got the tires, same size as what I curently have on my Rampage TT, however when I opened the bag I immediately noticed that the inner and outer side walls are different sizes. So do i have to run a different beadlock rim now to have decent tires that have grip?

first question for meDid you need adapters to fit rovan wheels on your rampage...im looking for a new set of tire for my chimera.Thanks

 

[lovedr79]

The wheels are stock rampage TT. Yes to fit rovan wheels adapters are needed. This is why I wanted to run my current wheel. I like the look

[lovedr79]

I've never owned a Rovan. Although the 45cc baja is pretty badass

Rovan and King Motor hexes will fit straight on TT , MT and Dunerunner axles - about $3 each depending on where you find em.
Don't know about the X series.

Sweet. Thanks man!

No sweat.
I've got a set on mine so I can use just about all wheels on the market.
I'm currently running Rovan Knobbies.
170 x 60 front and 170 x 80 rear just to make it look more like a buggy.
The narrower front tyres seem to steer better too.

I like the look of narrower fronts

I'm at work at the moment but I'll take a pic when I'm home on the weekend and post it.
