Tyres

[kingbob]

Hi Guys, thinking of getting an X10 for use here in australia. We rarely race on grass, and most of our tracks are packed clay, with mostly grippy surfaces, so most of us run proline holeshot or bowtie tyres on our current cars.

Does anyone know if the 4wd tyres proline make for the xxx4 wheels (or similar) will fit the X10 wheels? Obviously i can't bolt on wheels with a regular pin or hex adapter, so being able to run tyres i know work for our surfaces is a big consideration.

Hi Kingbob. 99% certain that those tyres you have mentioned will fit X10 wheels. I hope Proline step pins fit X10 wheels, will be needing to use them at Tivvy indoor winter series.

Yeah they'll fit, don't worry.

Sorted. Got some on the way. not sure on colour though. He Might of got me some yellow 5-spoke one's.

They do fit, but be carefull, don't over tighten them.
Try them when you get them and give me a shout if you can't fit them.

Hey Kingbob all the tires you mentioned will fit no prob.
Try the losi blockheads on the front they work for me(also hard packed clay surface) on the rear I use just about anything(x-2000,bowtie,panther-puma,step pins...)
anything that will give enough grip.
hope this helps
