marderman Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 As I have now converted the car to a beetle monster the wheels look tiny want bigger ones what's biggest wheels around to fit ? Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stebro Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Fg monster wheels, ftx destroyer wheels or if you want can run HPI convertors and run baja rear wheels all round. I prefer the baja wheels myself as that is what i ran. Tried monster wheels but didn't like the poor traction 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iwik76 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 The pictures in this thread have the maverick blackout wheels on them. They are on a Hpi Baja so might help visually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atom3624 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 I love the wide, square section of the old MCD Chevron tyres - not available other than backstreet '1/4' trucks which have identical markings on them!! I think the Blackout's are slightly larger in diameter. Try the Hurrax Yukon wheels - I think they are the BIGGEST in recent years. Al.

atom3624 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Look at the photos above. I HAVE an FG MT with its original wheels/tyres and a separate set with MCD ones. The MCD tyres are squarer giving a better footprint, but the diameter is perhaps <5mm bigger. The Nutech/Maverick is a little bigger I believe - there was a thread on this 3 years ago on LSF. Back to my first sentence - look at the photos above. Definitely looks like the Yuckon/Yukon has the biggest - I'm guessing 220mm. Couldn't get dimensions, it just LOOKS the biggest.

rctruckz Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 hobbythek used to sell the adapters to allow you fit hurrax (yukon) rims on an fg, but dont think they sell em any more? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
