Anyone know the height/diameter and thickness of the FG Monster Truck Tire?
I'm thinking of getting a set of Hard FG MT tires and rims to replace the stockers but the problem is no matter what parameters I use to search... I just cant find the dimensions. From forums to store and even FGs terrible website.

Yea they seemed heavy when i saw them last year at a meet. The tires seem to be VERY thick and tough. Almost like real car tires.

They are belted inside too. They do not balloon.

Make sure you've got a steering servo that is upto the job, most will throw the teddy out of the pram when you want them to do some real work i.e on the larger MT wheels, even hitting a kerb at a reasonable pace will break them.

I was just thinking about that, glad you reminded me/brought it to my attention. With the stock rims/tires my hitec 5755 already has a hard enough time turning the wheels... the added weight would definitely make it hard to turn and im sure it would make it harder to stop. A pair of rims/tires is 132.99 too so ordering 2 of those would cost as much as a stroker kit or good exhaust. Sigh... I will put more thought into it. Perhaps maybe nutech would come out with new MT tires designs/sizes by the time the stock ones go bald. I do expect the FG tires to last real long since they are very thick/tough.
