I need help with hop ups and tires.

[Mister Insane]

I am looking for a new set of tires for my TT and i want to do a little bit better than stock, can some one tell me where to look, also what are some hop ups i should buy, thanks in advance.

Buy yourself some hpi hubs and you will be amazed at the tire choices. For hopups first thing is to get a killswitch and a radio that will work with it.

Thanks

What would you suggest for those hop ups?

If you want to maintain a buggy look you can roll with Proline front Bowties premounted on Desperado rims. The lighter weight tires will help with acceleration and steering.

both have hpi adaptors, pro line desperado wheels, (tt) bad land tires and truck has excavator tires. love the badlands, excavators, not so much... no traction.

 

[Mister Insane]

Thanks

Where can i get the badlands tires and hpi adapters?, also would i lose alot of power running the x can with 2 ddm silencers?

 

[Mister Insane]

what pipe should i run for the most performance?

desperados/badlands or look for the tire of your choice.

pipe... ddm side pipe is what i run. cpi and jetpro are both great choices also. x-can is better than stock, but get a pipe, it's a must.

wheel adaptors, i run extended on the tt and stock width on the truck.

Personally, I'd get Hostile Mini MX's.
