Spetz83 0 Posted November 25, 2010 Do drift wheels only fit drift tires on? Or can I use drift wheels with normal tires? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will16 45 Posted November 25, 2010 You can fit normal tyres to drift wheels and drift tyres on to normal wheels as long as the wheel and tyre are the same size. Will Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
balongbalong 0 Posted November 26, 2010 if you're talking about tamiya, yes other brands like yokomo however, their drift wheels do not have grooves that seat normal the tires properly, so they dismount by themselves when you run them. bottom line, if the wheel has a seat groove then yes, if it doesn't then no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spetz83 0 Posted November 26, 2010 These are what I was thinking: http://www.rcmart.com/catalog/rc-drift-rim...l?cPath=35_1447 Also, offset 5 means 5mm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VagabondStarJXF 345 Posted November 26, 2010 Yes those look fine. As long as you use 26mm tyres on those 26mm wheels you should be fine. You might want to use some decent inserts and glue the tyres if you're going to run them. And another yes on the 5mm for the offset on those wheels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
