ARRMA Limitless 53/107 on rear?

[DalsRaceCars]

Looking to turn my limitless into a drag car and was wondering if my Hoons dBoots 53/107 Gold would work as the rear tires. I have an 8S Limitless.

They can from the 6S Felony which is 90% the same as the Limitless.

From Amain, they have the same spec. Why wouldn't they/what is your concern?

If you went with the DBoots Hoons 53/107, they have a 4.21" diameter and you would need to match front & rear diameters.

Not a drag racer, but "I think" a lot of them run foams with sticky stuff?

You would have to change the rear differential. For the rear 45/14(3.21) and 42/15 (2.80) for the front.
This is stock in the Lim V2 42/15 (2.80) for front & Rear.

Yes but I don't to what gears. You'll need to do the math.

I'm not sure what the performance advantage would be to running two different diameter tires? What's your goal?

The Felony does this and says it's for style.

That car runs 42/100 (3.94") front & 53/107 (4.21") Rear. If you are running different size tires front and rear, you will need to regear to make sure they turn at the same RPM. Otherwise you will be overdriving (spinning faster) the front and it will drive weird ... unless your rock crawling.
