Should I get different tires if using this mainly on the street?

Yes, traxxas makes the anacandas tires for street use. I believe they basicly 20 buck for the back set and around 20 for the front. Thats with the rims and pre-glued. The tires that come with it are for the dirt and will wear out very quickly on street.

I bought the anaconda tires front and rear for mine. The stock tires any quick turn you make (especially on street) will send you flipping . The anacondas are strictly for street and handle well and you wont wear them down as fast.

I would strongly recommend a second set of tires. My 13 year old son needed new tries within about a month of use. He did however drive his car on the street everyday also.

Ted is right. Use the right size tube for the tire. I would even go further and recommend installing a new tube with any new tire unless your old tube is relatively new.Jim

Depends on what you want. I purchased some hpi xpatterns for the street and pirelli rallies for off road. Wheels are 26mm width 1.9's... With a 12mm hex. I would definitely suggest upgrading the hexes to a harder plastic (i.e. traxxas) or metal.. Either way have fun!!!

I would definitely go with the larger size, a little extra vinyl should be ok, and the cover will be slightly wider to cover the width of the tire better.

If your going to be hitting a lot of bumps, I'd go for a straight mountain or a cross bike. This bike is more of a street bike and the skinny tires do not like potholes. Other than that, I like it a lot. And for you the 50cm.

In my experience the size of these tends to run large. If it gives you two options for your tire, go with the smaller one.

No, but if you get bigger tires you will need different wheels with different back spacing.

With thinner tubes, you'll always have a higher chance of getting flats. However, if you have a thicker tire/tread, that could help, too.

I believe it would be too baggy and I would also think there would be a risk of it coming off if you were driving too fast. If you're going to change tire sizes anyways, I would just hold off till you've upgraded.

I think the radius will be different therefore the fender and tire may look mismatched.

Depends on what load range you purchace, make sure to check the manufactures specs on these tires, they come in several differnt load range catagories (ie; load rang C,D,E) with E being the heavy duty

Depending on the offset of your new wheels you should be fine if your current tires clear. If you get a different offset wheel there is no way to know without a trial fit.

I would say probably not as in using mine it slipped away in mud so it probably needs a more firm surface . I even got a 4x4 stuck in a gravel road . The type of tread you have on your tires will make a lot of difference as I found even with my 4x4!. You may need a more aggressive tire for your car with deeper tread .

My tires are the same. I have these and there is room between the wheels to use them.

Correction. I was thinking about some paddle tires I purchased last year. Please disregard my previous answer and heed the advice of other recent consumers.

Yes they say that you are able run 35's if you want. But at the moment I have smaller tires but with probably end up getting 35's when it's time for new rubber.

I'd recommend getting a jogger, or the City Mini GT with the forever air tires. The forever air tires are made to go on any pavement / grass, etc. Hope this helps.
