[rob666 0]

Hi guys recently purchased my Fighter Buggy, wondered if there were any beefier front wheels i can put on there with no modifications?

Or wheels i can ut on there with minor modification.

Thanks in advance

desert gator front wheels should fit.

Same DT-01 chassis but with the Mad Fighter body shell:

The wheels are DT-02 speed discs [for the Sand Viper] and the tires are Pro-line Dirt Hawgs. They are great for tarmac and wear like iron. Decent grip as an all-round choice. Wouldn't race with them, but still....

On the above website what tyres would i then be looking at to go on that wheel?

While i'm at it i may upgrade the rears, again which tyre would it be on the wider wheel?

Thanks

Yup, those are the same Tamiya speed discs for the front and these tires will fit straight on:

The stock buggy front tires from Tamiya will work too: http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/item.php?product-id=51207

Sorry, I know its not the same website, but you can cross reference the manufacturer numbers.

Personally, I would absolutely love to buy a set or two of the Carson wheels/tires, but I cringe at the shipping cost and duty, not to mention the exchange rate of the dollar to the pound at the moment.
