Default WIDE TIRES

Tamiya makes 32 mm wide slicks and treaded tires in 1.9" diameter, there ars also rims for these tires from Tamiya in reversible two piece or one piece. HPI makes 31 mm & 34 mm slicks and matching wheels in 1.9" diameter wheel ( they are standard issue on their Falken Tire Porsche kit ). HR racing offers 29 mm, 33 mm, and 36 mm wide tires, they come mounted on alloy rims and are a solid rubber medium grip tire. My sons and I have and use all of the above . Generally speaking, wider tires are extremely cool looking, additionally extra traction and grip are available bashing enywhere a 26 mm would otherwise be used. I find the extra rubber adds life to the tires also. WIN WIN WIN
