lighter tires?

[Anthony1989]

I was woundering if there was some lighter tires that would fit my rampage mt?

get yourself a set of wheel adapters and you'll have all kind of choices. I think rob the forum owner sells them. or you could get four front or four back tires off a dunerunner they're much lighter than the m/t's but the front and rears are different.

Many folks will change to use the buggy tires. You can get adapters from Dark Soul, Vertigo, DDM.

For the MT use all rear wheels. Like Split Six. Then get some tires like the Hostile MX or MXT.

You truck will really come alive with these lighter tires.

Then you can start buy replacement parts for the front end. LOL

You have to use HPI Baja rear adapters. I do not sell them.

Imex J-7 wheels and tires are 1/2 the weight of mt tires and you still have the monster truck look.

Okay sweet ordered the adapters just not sure what a real light wheel that is sturdy.

Proline Trenchers are a good choice. Tough looking and tall.

 

[Anthony1989]

I ordered some wheels and tires called bs501-001 hi01-001 couldn't find proline tires that were 24mm. So just bought these cheap ones 4 the time being. If yall know a place that sells them plz post the url.

So if I was to buy the imex J-7 wheels do I have to change the wheel nut?

 

[reefertech]

Hello, can you tell me if these wheels are direct replacment, or are the adapters still needed?

 

[RampageHopUps]

They are 24mm, so your would need the adapters.
