The slash has a much bigger body so no giant tires would fit unless you heavily modded the body (which is not what this thread is about).

Please read the forum prior to posting next time. As far as your rude, irrelevant comment "Not sure why anyone would want a mini slash", there is no need for comments like this. The reason I started this thread was because I could not find a forum thread that specifically talked about ONLY the 1/16 slash tire options.

Putting this wheel / tire combo on a mini revo is just as stupid as his comment "Not sure why anyone would want a mini slash"

Agreed I'm really sorry for not posting my mini slash pictures this weekend. I had my digital camera out and took some pics, but alas work had to take priority once again.....sigh. I will try to post this somepoint this week, since I believe if we get more pictures in the thread more people will post their mini slash setups.

The Mini Slash is limited to the 10th scale road tires.
dont forget about the 540 conversion from tenbol .if you put a 540 motor in that small car then you need tire change

I can say for sure the Team Academy SB pro 4wd buggy wheels (then use any 4wd buggy tires) are a direct bolt on for the Mini Revo. They have a considerably narrower offset, but I would think you will have body rubbing issues with a Slash.

the Mini Inferno Buggy wheels/tires will fit and work great, you have a whole selection of tread patterns and wheel style to choose from

You will need a set of Mini Inferno Hub adaptors as they are not 12mm....the Mini Inferno is like 8.6mm...anyways, slightly open the axle hole in the wheel up a little, add the hexes and they bolt right up.
About 1-2mm shorter, same width, same offset.

I know you said you have full steering, but it looks like the tires will hit the chassis and the body. Is that the case?

I have double black springs all around and mine will still bottom out unless I jack the preload way up. And when you do that it handles like crap. Unlike most people, I'm not a big believer that the double blacks are the fix for the crappy suspension. I still haven't found a good fix for the horrible shocks.

FYI - I do still have the stock oil in the shocks.
