Looking for some stupid big tires and wheels...

[Desert Rc]

So winter is on the way and I would like to get some ridicuous sized wheels and tires for both my XT8 and my Losi XXL. Both running a MMM and the xt8 is 2200 and the XXL a 1520 if im not mistaken.


Any project SNOW is right around the corner and I will start waterproofing my MMMs very soon in preparation. Shoot me some ideas on what you would run. I do have some losi 420s but they are so boring.

I really want some Jumbo Kongs to mess with even though they are very impractical...just what I like.

HPI terra pins are huge and stupid ;)

I put them on my truggy last winter, and it was down right idiotic. It was fun until you tried to turn and the wheels hit the body.

Yup thanks Fin....have a new set on the XT8 right now. Just looking to see what other options we can come up with.

[Desert Rc]

They look crazy on there too I will have to grab a pic.

The IMEX jumbo kongs are probably your best bet for what you want to do with them. Sounds like fun. Good luck with that.

[Desert Rc]

they arent being made anymore are they??

[Desert Rc]

Anyone know wheel options for the Kongs?? I found a set avail at Tower....BLAH. Anyway I for get what the hex size is on the XXL. I think they are 14mm or something. I remember buying some 17mm conversion hubs.

[Desert Rc]

oh its 20mm....thats why I bought a set of 17mm. Either way which wheels to get now....hmm.

[Desert Rc]

found them on fleabay too. need ideas for sick ass wheels now guys.

[Desert Rc]

Well this could make a heavy tire even heavier...man the look cool though.

Come on guys chime in. I need wheel options for these kongs in a 17 or 20mm hex....suggestions/options needed.

You could try those Axial tires/wheels. I think Linc had a set he was talking about selling - they are very soft though. Other than that, peruse the RC4WD site - they have some big tires/wheel set ups.

Imex jumbo chevrons are pretty epic:

The imex jumbo rims are 14mm hex, but the tires will fit ofna monster pirate and titan ( I think ) jumbo sized rims perfectly- tgose have a 17mm hex I believe.

why not just run sand padles?

[Desert Rc]

I might try that one day but really I am still thinking about doing like a Gravedigger Monster truck rally truck. I think my nephews will dig it and it will be cool terrorizing thru the snow.
