I've got a brushless converted Ansmann Hogzilla truggy and I'm looking for some new wheels and tyres to suit, as the tyres are starting to show signs of splitting and I need a spare set of wheels too.

Any ideas, as most of the 1/8 so-called truggy wheels appear to be too small in both width and diameter?

Thanks all

Don't have a clue about off road tyres tbh I'm a on road fella. They will be all the same fit I would imagine so you will be ok fitting any.

Prob best ask at a good model shop as to which actual tyres to suit the surface you use the car on.

Thanks for your response - was more about the size, as the ones on it are HUGE and other 1/8 so-called truggy wheels are narrower

Thanks for the link - Apex very helpful and some Caster Racing wheels & tyres combo of the right combined diameter duly ordered!

Apparently the slightly narrower wheel & tyre width will help the turn in of the thing!
