Typhon Best off-road tire for typhon?

[Ajag]

Just curious what you guys are running for bashing tires on the typhon

I’ve had so many tires blow out in the past that I’m thinking I want to go with a set of belted tires but not sure what will work best on the v5

anyone tried running these on their typhons?
It’s the trencher hp 3.8

Those belted Trenchers are huge for a buggy - they're as tall as standard Backflip tyres but also wider and heavier than they are too, especially as they're belted. I'm not keen on heavy tyres as they're more prone to breaking diffs

I think I read that a AF member wasn't happy with their lack of side grip either, but that could be because they were on a less than ideal surface, like dry loose dirt. These look to be better suited for wet or dry grass, and dry asphalt

Are you looking to truggify it? Because of their size, IMO they'd look a bit nuts on a Typhon

I have these - they're standard 1/8 buggy size, hardly balloon, look awesome on my Typhon 3S and have excellent grip on any surface:

The M2 are about the same as the Lockups. You will need MT tires if you want wider than buggy wheels.

Does the Typhon 6s accepts "standard" 1/8 buggy wheels and tires? Even those cheaps ones on Aliexpress or other chinese websites?
