Googled & Googled but i can not find out if i can but the Spiky Hornet Tires on Grasshopper (or others, want somthing else than the original ones). Sand Scorcher an The GrassHopper seems to use the same ones.

Tried Tamico but could only find those standard tires.

Warning: bought those Bronze dampers on Ebay that seem to be the only oil dampers that will fit straight away. Non of the 4 i got can hold the oil but i kept them on for the looks, but i removed them today as the get completely stiff all the time, so the original bouncy ones are back on and are doing a better job. Do keep away from those on Ebay (i will put out a picture later)

The Hornet/Frog spiked will fit the GH wheel and fit on the rear of the GH. 
 

The GH shares the same wheels and therefore tires as the Hornet and Frog. Also the SRB. The Brat and Rough Rider (?) wheels and tires are 1.7” and be be used. I use Brats on my own GH for street use. 
 

Alternative 1.5” tires for Tamiya wheels can be hard to find.  CRP and Duratrax both made tires for those wheels as did a few smaller 3rd party manufacturers.  These are rare and expensive. Troll also made tires and these are easier to find but still expensive.  You might try searching for 1.4 or 1.6 tires.
 

As a matter of fact, I’m watching a pair of Duratrax 1.4 “Matrix” tires on Ebay now. But they are waaaaay to expensive for my taste..,

Good luck!
