Need advice: 20mm Hex Tires? or adapters to something else?

[cazrack]

Got a used Hobao Hyper MT plus 2 and thinking of tire options but its seems to be hard to find with 20mm hex.

• 20mm Wheel Hex hubs & 17mm Wheel nuts

1. 20mm Hex Tires? or adapters to something else?

2. Anyone know if these 20mm Hex Losi super rock rey 2.0 tire would work?

Another (fix) is probably to change center diff oil to something heavier.
The problem is the front tires ballon like a crazy pizza slicer to much with heavy throttle use. The rear tires don't.

edit:
put front tires back and rear tires front, now front ballon less.
also stiffen rear shocks and loose up front shocks.

made a big difference.

I don't own a MT plus 2 but I would imagine the 17mm hubs from a hobao buggy would fit. Letting you use any 17mm hex wheel.

Hobao Hyper MTE2 17mm Wheel Hex Hubs part number: OP-0136
Apparently HPI ones should work as well according to JayTee RC videos about 17 Hex

Truck stock have: 20mm Wheel Hex hubs & 17mm Wheel nuts
Stock Tires are big: 197mm diameter, 105mm wide

Proline 1/8 Trencher HP BELTED F/R 3.8" MT Tires Mounted 17mm Black Raid are sized: 170mm diameter and 105 mm wide

I don't know if there is any bigger tires with 17 hex.
(Someone might find this useful.)

This is a fun truck, (completely different feel compared to driving a Arrma or Traxxas.)

I own the MTE +2. I blew a tire apart. And just used Tekno +4mm hexes with some corally tires/wheels that i had. Direct bolt on.

Good to know, I ordered the 42 motor mount holder so after a motor change I will probably change tires.
