Tire! Tires! Tires!

Recommended Posts

As noted in the title, I’m looking for tires to refurbish two RC cars, the original fox, and the original Saint dragon.
 

More specifically I’m looking for tires on the original 2WD Saint dragon. This chassis and smaller wheel size is based off the Madcap. The tires are much smaller than the newer modern buggy sizes.  I would like to stick with Tamiya tires if possible, as these will be Resto-mod cars.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Doesn't the Saint Dragon just use the same size fronts at the Wild One (etc...), and the same rears as almost all the reres?  You could run Manta Ray rears and Wild One fronts...

Even if yours was probably a typo, it's a fantastic name! After the Saint Dragon, Tamiya should totally come up with the Satan Dragon for it to battle with! Ahahah

 

+ 1 about the Manta Ray rears, they'll fit.

 The Fox front tires are a larger diameter.   I cannot confirm if Wild One front tires are same as Fox front tires.  
 

I need to check if Manta Ray tires are same as Saint Dragon.  Does Tamiya still make Manta Ray tires?

Sorry for typo.  Maybe I can get MCI to change the wording to Satan Dragon 😂.  
 

thanks for confirming rear tire.  Need to find a store which sells them.  Do you know any good stores @Ferruz ?

I still need to find front tires 🤔

They do pop un on the evil bay every now and then! I used to have an alert notification about them, and it would show stock every few months. Worth a look.
