Anyone?? or are you guys running on the stockers still?
I'm running the HPI 1/10th rally tires I think the part # is 4470... here is a pic
If i go with HPI rims would I need 0mm offset or 3mm? Also will these rims I'm looking at work on the H8 http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXAWL1&P=7

Also, I'm going to get the HPI Pirelli tire 26mm and the Trinty wheel adaptors.
I'm using both the Pirelli's and the Rally knobbies from HPI... and the MRC tires (super soft and knobby)

After trying the HPI 4470, and Pirelli clone rally tires, and the Associated (pro-line made) rally tires, I would have to say that my favorite tires are.......Pro-line Bow-Tie tires on packed clay, and Losi step pin tires on dirt, both are made for
the RC18t & mini-t, and have been custom mounted to some HPI 26mm wheels and use HPI soft (red dot) 26mm molded foam
Bow-Tie T:
well if you are going to custom-cut and mount tires...then the field is wide open with all the tires already out for the RC18T and the Mini-T
do any of these an all-around tread or an on-road tread.

The best part is that if a person already has a full set of 4 of these tires for a rc18t, they can re-use the tires by cutting them off of the smaller size rims and re-gluing them on to the 1/10th scale rims.
That is how I got started anyway, by just experimenting with old tires which were no longer being used anymore.
