Can anyone identify these kyosho tires
Hello All, I have some Kyosho tires and I cannot seem to figure what vehicle it came from. When I got them they were poorly mounted on some MP-5 rims. I doubt that they were from the 1/8 race buggy line up? Can anyone tell me anything about these tires?

Re: Can anyone identify these kyosho tires
I just got a set of those in. No idea what to do with them. Mounted on 2.2 buggy rear wheels, and they are big and heavy. Very cool, probably end up on a lazer. When I bought them,, I didnt realize what they actually were.

Re: Can anyone identify these kyosho tires
Can you guys identify the origin of these XL Sand Supers then? They're about 52mm on the inside. The Beetle/Assault wheel is in there for scale. Cheers.

Are they different from the Landjump ones other than their number?

These 1.8's buggies must have been awesome, did they have a enough power for their size?

Re: Can anyone identify these kyosho tires
These tires are so popular, that they´ve been reproduced. A big thanks to Marwan.
But no worries, the originals will sell
The 1/8 buggys were powered by 0.21 cui, add a tuned pipe and You were between 1,4-1,8 hp - wich in my opinion is plenty of power for that application.
Not nearly the same speeds as today but somewhere between 60-80 km/h is achievabel.
