Third Party Tires for Lego Technic Rims

[MajklSpajkl]

I bought those on ebay from China for 13,90 USD for 4 pieces, free shipping worldwide. They were the 108mm diameter and zhey fit perfect, but not in the rims channels, if you put them there, they deform a bit...

Been using third party tires for a while now. They are pretty awesome.

Found these tires. They fit almost perfectly. Just a little tight causing the surface to bow in. Could be solved with some air pressure or foam

Which tires are they? They look familiar...

I can't remember off the top of my head, but I am sure I have the invoice in my inbox somewhere. I will look.

They look like Axial Maxxis Trepador tires:

I see these a lot at my local hobby shop, they replaced my favorite Ripsaws with them.

Those slicks are slick!

These super swampers 1.9" fit really well too. Not sure if they have been mentioned before tho.

Anyone tried 2.2" ? Is the same size of the wheel... 56mm

Theoretically, 2.2s are a better fit (in terms of dimensions), but you have to glue the tires. 1.9 fits with some light stretching, which is perfect for LEGO.

Looking at the dimensions, they should be able to fit.

It's not enough, i need to know for 99% I do not want to buy something that I will not use.

Here's an idea guys. What about tyres for the PP rims? Those are wider and should support a bigger tyre?

Dluders did some tests earlier, 2.2" tires fit pretty well on those rims:

The only thing is, PP wheels are a little wider than the 2.2" tires, so the tires look better when mounted on the inside of the outer flange (as seen on the right of the above picture).

The closest you'll get are probably these Mickey Thompson tires, which will fit the Power Puller wheels:
