Tire suggestion

[cooper1jones]

Just bought the adaptors from 7075. Any suggestions or experience with larger tires for the xsc. Any advice would be appreciated.


Thanks,

I have the proline trenchers and like them. They are over 7 inches tall. Stock motor seems ok running them, however, I'm a light basher. Helps the top speed a little too!

I just picked a XSC up also. I wanted to try a Grafil body. The stock wheels/tires are small and look silly with the body. The 5t & 5sc tires seem a bit large. I ordered 4 5b front wheels & some tires by RC4WD. I will start a thread after I'm a begin the project. Here is what I ordered.

TIRES

Can someone give me a tip on how to remove the glue off my xt tires to put new foams in them? And where can i get new foams for them?

Boil the tires till the glue softens,then remove the tire, pull out the foams dry them,then put the foams back in put your tire on then reglue.That being said is why some of use beadlock tires and rims.You can get foams at ddm or largescale or as a cheap fix go to walmart and get pool noodles cut and trim to fit.Hope this helps. Good luck.

I run these tires and you will like them alot if you use the street alot. They will last you a long time. their a bit on the heavy side because you get a lot of rubber.

+1 on boiling the tires and you can use these inserts https://www.largescalerc.com/search.aspx?find=010902P0+-+Monster+Tire+Foam+Insert+(QTY+2)

They are too long but the right width so just cut them to the right length and re glue and they will hold up forever. Mine are still going strong.

You can try naphta (lighter fluid) it will dissolve the glue
