New 1/5th scale GRPS

[Moirae]

Matching the 1/8th scale now IG?? I just ordered 2 of the xm2's =D

Are these too small for a DBXL?

I'm not sure what radial is but they're belted.

Are these too small for a DBXL?

I'd definitely say so. poop they look too small for my talion exb lol. I have some proline 1/6th scale menace tires coming today that are belted and probably would be amazing on the dbxl. I'm going to try them on the XRT today or tomorrow.

203mm diameter and the same 24mm hex. I don't even know if anyone even makes an adapter for the grps on a dbxl. I was frustrated because I wanted to try them on my rovan f5 when it gets here but it's also 24mm hex and the grps are 18mm iirc.


Now that I think about it, I actually just ordered some cardinal racing tires for the rovan f5 that should also technically fit on a dbxl but they're only 180mm diameter iirc and apparently people use these tires on 12s np.

Those look great. You gotta let me know if you try them on the DBXL!

PS that Rovan looks slick

Max 4 + TP 5870 750kv Going to be 12s


It was actually supposed to get here friday, then sunday, and now today but fedex says they attempted delivery when they didn't and what's funny is they dropped off the 2nd package but not the rovan and it was on the same truck. Can't stand fedex

Yeh I hate that sh!t!! I'm currently waiting on that Tekno and it has said Monday the 5th since I ordered it, and I know it's not showing up today. The last tracked place was MD and I'm in VA. USPS, UPS and FedEx are all pretty crappy now. Bout time for a new delivery service to emerge. Isn't UPS on strike atm??

if you're not doing speed runs, the size probly wont effect it too much , i just put a set of the 190 Mad Max's on my K8-EXB and its still silly quick for bashing . i thought about gearing up for the smaller tire , but it only lost a few mile an hour flat out . however i love how snappy it is with the smaller tire . ^^ those Cardnals are 24mm ?

Yep!! they're MCD tires for the 1/5th scale on road rigs. Things are actually bigger than the k8s haha.
