Anyone know where to get some after market tires for this mini? I know they are a 12mm hex but i cant find the size i seen 3.8 somwhere but i doubt that is right. Anyone know what size? I was looking at the Proline Dirt Hawgs for the 1/18th on prolines site but im not sure if they would work, Anyone know for sure?

1/18th is too small. You're underestimating the size of this guy. For now, you need to find some 1/10th buggy rears like fit on the Losi XXX-G4+ 4WD buggy.

Im sorry i forgot to mention that i am getting the Slash VXL mini not the revo. So the 1/10th buggy wheels is what fits these things huh?
So would these work on it?

I think the rear buggy tires are a perfect fit for the mini revo, but for the mini slash not so sure?
I'm going to try some front 4wd buggy tires and see how it looks.

Yea i seen that post, but all of it seems to be Revo Related. Im looking for 1/16 slash tires. Surly they will be smaller then the revos. Originally Posted by LanceD

the traxxas page says 1.6". this must be the size of the rim, because this picture appears to say 2.7" molded into the rubber: http://www.traxxas.com/products/elec...de-chassis.jpg
the pictures in this thread agree with the 2.7" and they show that sedan wheels fit on the slash

similarly, for the revo, the traxxas page says 2.0" and this picture shows 3.25" molded into it
