Default Belted tire suggestions
Well after my mini bashing session with my Tekno MT410 one of my badlands peeled away from the rim and the Proline customer service said it couldn’t be glued. All that to say I’m looking for some NON ballooning, I guess belted, off road wheels and tires. I googled this to death and saw some SRC wheels and tires, they look good but the tires look to low profile to handle many jumps. Does anyone have any experience with these wheels? Or can anyone suggest and setup to look at? I don’t feel like going the duck tape or fishing line route, I just want bolt on and go. Thanks in advance for your help,
Ian

never known a non ballooning tire thats a rubber or synthetic rubber only ones I know of are a good set of Foams. been thru many sets .. I found that putting a lite coat of wire loops with a good bonding compound inside tire helps a lot but I dont run under 100mph on my rigs..

I got the impression these were just the start. I’m slowly getting back to my off road stuff. I’ll be watching to see what they have coming

I ran the SRC's when I had my Mugen MBX6T brushless truggy. They were a nice durable wheel/tire combo, but the they are so big and wide i lost a little speed also they caused my castle esc to shut down In thermal protection mode because of overheating. If you run nitro It shouldn't be a problem.

I haven’t seen those before. The concern would be how strong, durable are the wheels. Watched a lot buy off brand tires/wheels for the XMaxx. If remember right, most tires were usually ok, but the low quality wheels would crack. That would be my concern with these.
