Torqueoverspeed Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Make sure you tape your tires aswell. What i mean by this mate is; Get your tire, turn it inside out and tape a strip of duct tape right around the tire twice then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TerrorTrooper Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Most RTR cars have factory glued tyres, hence why they dont mention this in the manual. However, Often the factory are a little stingey, or negligent in certain areas. Tyre glue. Diff oil/grease. Loose screws. those tend to be the biggest culprits.

portisheaddan Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) I dont have this crazy Phenomenon going on with mine as its a track car - However, Im am glueing presently since they keep buggering off to the back of beyond !!! Further - I cant see these new tyres lasting many more blasts round the streets. Do you have to buy new wheels and tyres from suppliers or can you buy just tyres for your wheels ???

Smoothybb Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 You can buy tyres separately, far more choice doing it that way. Even pre-glued tyres don't mean they'll stay on the rims, certainly not Ansmann 1/8th on-road's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
