Default Cat sx2 crazy idea

Just for a laugh wanted to put some large tires on the cat. What are the best large tires to choose? Would the tires from the manic fit or would I have to buy the purple hexes?

Why would you want to do this to a normally brilliant car?

On a serious note, I doubt the wheels will fit as i assume they would foul on the shocks...

This is what will happen:

- It will drive like poo
- The drivetrain will wear out quicker
- It will look crap
- You won't be able to race it anymore

Run it on a racetrack. Then it'll all make sense. Best buy something else if you want to bash about.

I agree mate, take it to your local club/race track, then all will become clear of why the SXII has been designed the way it has

As you live in Huddersfield, I suggest looking at the Batley thread in the clubs section of this website. They race most weeks over in Cleckheaton and have an excellent club, you'll really enjoy it.
