Hoping someone can help me find a good source for rallye car style tires.
Trying to find something that will stick my Touring Car to our non ozite carpet.
Found a good set that work well from HPI but they are out of stock already.
Are there any other options out there anyone can think of?
Thanks for your help.

There's a possibility you might be able to fit 18T rims/tires on the car... They're a little wider than TC tires... But almost as tall

I think the inner wheel diameter might be to small for the C hub. Remember the trouble we had fitting my TC wheels to your Yokomo.
I found a set that HPI still produces:

They are available in 2 compounds. hopefully they keep on producing them.
They work well on our carpet and should be very long lasting.
Still wondering if any other companies make rally tires though????

Forgot about that part of it!
And you'd also have to drill the bolt hole of the rim out...

I know Tamiya makes a rally tire... But it looks to be more suited to real dirt than the carpet... The tread is basically a bunch of blocks, lol.
