Tamiya M-03 Mini tyres & TT01 question

[General Accident]

Any suggestions for a decent tyre for a Mini on carpet. The kit ones suck and the bloody thing goes round corners like its got castors on instead of wheels. Spinning is an understatement. I tried to fit some wheels off a Schumacher Mi3 onto the Mini but they fouled the hubs so I'm guessing I'll have to stick with the Tamiya wheels.

Also, will "proper" premounted tyres ie, RP's or similar fit onto a TT01 chassis car, I've seen they go for cheap money so I fancied a dabble but if I can't get half-decent rubber I'm not going to bother.

We use 3 racing wheels n tyres on carpet at our club and they fine, they seem to spin alot on exceleration but going into a corner is good, in fact you could get a little grip roll, but have to warn you, the fronts do wear out quick, heres a link to the tyres, there in Hong kong but you can get them from the uk, paul cook has them in at Cleveland Models in middlesbrough, hope this helps http://www.3racing.hk/products.php?products_key=2223 oh and i think there only £7.00 full set.

The Ansmann Tyres have ludicrous amounts of grips on our carpet, sounds like they would be ideal on yours.

They are 8.00 for four preglued with inserts. Should be available from most uk hobby shops.

Will the Ansmann preglued wheels fit onto an M-chassis though? Thats the question.
