7871 (skinny tire) Alternative

Post by n20capri »

Anyone find a modern tire for the RC10T skinny wheel? Or a new skinny wheel/tire combo? LOVE the skinny look but I can't find anything for trucks...

The Jconcepts J82 conversion front tire and wheel is what you would want. Whether they still make them or not it do not know.

I've cut the inside of wheels off, and used narrowed cut and glued tires before without any issues.

Man that would be cool - but they aren't available anymore either...
