I ordered some last Friday from DDM for my 5ive B. They are due to be delivered today.

Sorry mate no but I’d love to hear about the results??

They just showed up. Wasn't sure what wheels to get but just sorted that out so I will hopefully have them mounted up next week. I will chime back in when I get a run with em.

thanks.
if you could post some detailed photos of the tyres and when they are mounted that wold be great

im thinking of ordering a set

Here's a few detail pics. I ordered the wheels today from DDM. When they come in I'll mount em up and shoot some more pics and if the damn weather ever breaks I'll get some video. The pins/tires are of a medium compound. I think they would be good on a lighter 1/5 scale like our 5ive Bs but don't think they would hold up on my Kraken. Also don't think they would last at all on asphalt or concrete roads. Because of the medium compound, turf and short grass or loose dirt would be ideal.

Pins look like they will wear fast

thanks for the photos.

if they are very soft, they may be a good option for wet astro turf, as the wider pin gaps are similar to the 1/8 spiral type tyre used when racing 1/8 on wet astro. its all about matching the tyre to the surface and unfortunately there is no one tyre that does everything, that would be impossible

look forward to you views on them once used and a video would be awesome

Yup grass. I thought they would have been a harder compound but I think they will be great on the 5ive B in grass.

No problem.

Damn USPS misplaced my other pair of foam inserts so I was only able to mount up 2.The pins feel a lot more firm with the foam installed and mounted on the wheels. I think they will be great in grass. Once my other pair of foam come in I will get you some good reviews on how i feel they work.

Very mean looking wheel setup. Glad you are happy with them. I’m going to have to get a set ?

These tires are now discontinued due to issues from what I've been told from Uber RC. So get them while you can
