Default A question about tires

Hey there, can you guys helpme whit a question?

What tires do you use for a lowbed trailer, they must be smaller then the normal ones (like flatbed) and i cant find it anywhere.

Can you guys tell me where i can find it?

Thanks

How small do you want them? IF you have a Tamiya, the std tires are 83mm. Wedico tires are 73mm. You can stretch them onto Tamiya wheels. Wedico also makes some smaller tires at 65mm and 50mm. Try PMD or Fechtner.
