Default New Tyres (Tires!)

Hi all, got some new tyres for my globeliner the other day, just fitted them, there a bit bigger than the stock tamiya ones and give the truck even more of a rake!

Not sure whether to lift the front a bit more (already has a 4mm lift) or leave it be.

What do you guys reckon?

Those look slick on that Globeliner!

They look to be the same tires that come with rc4wd's new lowboy......I convinced Dad to rob the ones off the lowboy he bought and mount them on his King Hauler. Made a world of difference in adding to the work truck look!

Thanks for the coments, they are TopCad tyres that I found on ebay.de for 9 euros a pair! The cheapest I could find elsewhere were double.

I'm pleased with the globe, not quite finished yet though and still not sure about the rake?

As for the merc, well thats for another day!
