Tire choices

[Tzi]

I havent built my FOFF yet, but I run sand paddles on my 2wd Traxxas Slash as a 100% beach car.
Sand paws on the back and Panther Razor on the front.

In my experience, the Proline Sand Paws are a fantastic all around sand tyre... they work well on the soft 'dusty' sand, digging quite well to get grip, and on the hard packed sand they sit right up and give you more speed with the stiff paddles. Its like having a bigger tyre

I have some more vids of it climbing dunes etc, but havent uploaded them to youtube yet.

Running proline sand paws on my axial AX10 foff they work great.

i have the intimidator paddles for my wraith. what gearing would be best to get a little more wheel speed, not alot just a little more.

I was thinking of maybe a twin brushless MOA 1.9 axle and beadlocks , Does anyone know of any 1.9 sand tires?

Panther has released some SC paddles. I have a pair of them for my blitz and they work just as well as the 2.2's do, which is great!
I posted some tips on rcsc

Damn that thing is pretty quick on the sand! I like it!

I'm using the Proline 2.2 Sand Paws on my AX-10 based rig.. Only because it's what was available locally. They work great both on wet and/or packed sand, and really good in loose/soft sand.

They are a great fit on Axial 8 hole beadlocks. The width is absolutely a perfect match and the beads fall right into place. Running sealed up with no foams and the stiff paddles easily hold the rig up and it even drives O.K. on hard packed gravel roads and the lawn.

I really like the Sand Paws for best overall performance. They also tend to deal well on soft dirt.

well i have a set of sand paws.. was gonna cut them and put them on 1.9's and still may.. cuz im going car based and dont want a huge buggy foff...

i want a slammed down low foff but maybe i have to have some height to it.. LOL..

I'm doing a 2WD 1/10 buggy to trash on the sand.
So far I already have a set of sand paws, but what do you advise for the front?!
Maybe the proline mohak on SC wheels?

Any other options?

i just put some pro line sand paw's on my brushless evader ext2. cant wait to get on the beach!

 

[stout90]

and throw some major ROOST BRO

 

[evan03]

Figured I'd toss a few pics of my paddles up.
Sand is frozen and snow covered so it be awhile before I run them

My weapons of choise are 2.8 Sand paws, and boy I do love ´em 8)

Performance in loose sand is awesome, compared to my ex-AX-10 w Panther paddles I can now drive much slower in the hills, with AX I had to go flat out... Why slow, our comp courses have quite tight turns in interesting places...

I was wondering if anybody has tried the Rovan sand paddle tires? I have a Slash 4x4 on 3s with 17mm hubs that I would like to put paddles on and I saw this combo on ebay that looked pretty sweet.Rovan Sand Paddle Truck Tires on Rims Fits HPI Baja 5T 5SC King Motor Set of 4 | eBay

Anyone ran badlands. Curios how they do in soft dirt.

Badlands are good, but Dirt Paw is amazing!!!
I have never seen a tyre year grass out by the roots like this tyre does!!!
