Default Long shot looking for big rims for a mini t!!

Hi everyone, at my local club we run an odd balls race and i have been messing around with my mini t, im hoping some body could help me. Im looking for either a converter of some type so i can run buggy wheels or some over sized wheels that will take buggy tires. We run outdoors on a full grass track so the standard sized wheels just dont cut it.
Any help is much appreciated.

We have several of the Trinity "Monster" sized wheel and tyres still in stock for the Mini T if any use? They fit straight on and are about 1.5 to 2 times the size of the originals.....

Default Trinity monster

Have you got a part number for the monster tyres/wheels.Cant find them on your site.


Do they bolt on like normal wheels without the need for 1/10th adapters.

cheers.

Edit found them on dms are they pre glued? Do they need foam inserts?

Thanks. for the info.

Hi,

They bolt straight on to a standard truck, no need for any adaptors etc.

They offer the tyres in pre-glued and non pre-glued, we only have a selction of each left in stock now

Those that need them all come with inserts, some of the harder tyres dont require any though

Hope that helps

No they wont, they are smaller than that size plus they come with tyres already mounted to the wheels....

Bits arrived the other day and i managed to find time to put it together!! and take it for a quick test run.
Had one or two teething problems but after a couple of steady runs i shot the video, the slipper is very loose as i didnt want to destroy the gearbox just yet

Yep the beach! Took family down to west wales and had all cars out on a massive flat sandy beach. Finally got the 'T' up to full speed but keeping it in a straight line was impossible
