XT with IMEX J-7 wheels/tires

[crazyfast]

Just got them today and WOW! Because they're so wide, I was worried about the front left tire clearing my DDM pipe. But once on, I have a good 1/2" clearance at the closest point... PHEW!! Picture camparison to 5T tires (7.5" tall). Also picked up a Killer RC wire pull starter.

Looks tuff.... Did you weigh them? I wondered if they are close to the redcat MT weight

 

[Guest]

They are much lighter than the MT tires. If I remember correctly over a pound lighter per tire.

Haven't ever seen/held an MT tire yet. Buddy has a set he's going to dig out. But compared to the 5T wheels/tires that I was running, they weren't too much heavier. Definitely not as heavy as you would think. I will throw them on a food scale in the next few days to get the exact oz's.

Huge fan of the black... but it's just too tempting to paint the ring red! (plan on plasti dipping the body red)

They are 11oz each (about 1.75lbs)

I found these through Amazon.com but the actual company is Phoenix Model Company. They're on sale right now for $59 a pair (wheel and tire). I signed up for the Amazon Visa credit card because you get a $30 gift card. I plan on paying it off and cancelling it immediately LOL. One hell of a deal in the end!!!

MT wheels and tires are 1.5 lbs each!

set the XSC body on just to see and I'm digging it!!! Just need to fab up some taller body posts and trim the rear fender well out bit

Thanks, sounds like a great way to save on a sweet deal.

11 oz is only .6875 pounds. That is lightweight!

Wow! That makes it enticing...lose weight but keep the size.

What fitment is the hub?

I wonder if the MT can be converted. I was thinking it would be like an HPI to FG conversion, but it been a while since I looked into this.

 

[claude bigelow]

Will those tires fit on the MT also, or will I have to make changes for them to go on. Went on the site only 4 sets left.

U would need 24mm adapters to run them.MT hubs r to small...
