ruebiracer 1046 Posted April 1, 2019 (edited) Hi guys, I´m looking for alternative tires for my Vanquish runner on original wheels. I have stud spike tires of the ReRe Egress on, but they are quite too grippy on grass with the Long Spikes (rollover). So I´m Looking for an allround tire, that could be used instead for running and fit the original wheels. Should be usable on tarmac (just a Little), without wearing in 5 minutes, but also provide some grip on loose surfaces. Don´t want to switch to 2,2 size rims. I´m out of Buggy race Business for more than 20 years, so Need your help. Thank you for any proposals!

ThunderDragonCy 7881 Posted April 1, 2019 This is a tricky one as I have found exactly the same running egress wheels on my Thunder Dragon. Really not sure about tarmac running, but on grass I put Schumacher CAT Spike rear (full spike) and then the 2.0" sized mini spike front. Seems to even out the grip front to rear. They would wear on hard surface though. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter_B 997 Posted April 1, 2019 Could try Schumacher CAT blocks, blue compound would be most hard wearing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ruebiracer 1046 Posted April 2, 2019 Thanks for your help, really hard in 2,0 rim size. I think Schumacher is the only way to go. Will look into their cat tires... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter_B 997 Posted April 2, 2019 There is always the Tamiya Oval Block, as come with the Boomerang, Bigwig etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But they can also be quite grippy when running on grass. I think it´s time for me to try some non Tamiya tires and have look, alzhough I really like the design of the old Tamiya buggy tires.
