Kyosho Ultima 2.0 inch tire selection???

Post by **yellowdatsun** » Mon Sep 21, 2015 1:02 am

Wondering if any of you guys know where I can look for a set of 2.0 inch tires that would look period correct on an 88' Ultima? Ebay turns up relatively little, aside from a radio Shack set (which, honestly, fits the time period on looks). The fronts are actually Losi, but there's no tire name, and the pattern is stripes. Haven't been able to find anything close to that for the rears. Trying to unglue the fronts would likely ruin the wheels, and I just found rears to match, so I'd rather not do that.

Imex made a ton of clones in the 2.0".

I got some for my Ultima from a guy on this forum. Maybe you'll get lucky and someone will chime in with a set. I got some NOS CRP rear tires, which fit the tiem period perfectly. If you're actually looking to run the car, I'd put on some 2.2 wheels and get tires for those. I also picked up a set of rear axle adapters to use Associated wheels from this forum.

Or put an "ad" in the parts wanted section.

Yeh, it's a good thing my RC friends don't frequent this forum, I'd never hear the end of that one.

I’m sure someone can make that happen if you want to
