What do think would be a good tire/wheel combo for an LST?? I am running the 40's with the bowties right now.

Thx,

I saw you last weekend and I really think you would do better (not that you did bad) with standard rims. It'll keep you more in the lanes because they are more predictable and the truck can be controlled easier.

Those 40's sure do look cool though.

Standard bowties will work good, and the tires that come on LSP's are good too.

response tires are dialed at leisure.

Are the LSP stock tires similar to Responses?

kevinF · (#456 (**permalink**))

what are response tires and what do they look like?

Web page says there out of stock. What size wheel do they fit? I have the Pro-line 40's

If you don't want to switch your rims (you want 40's) then just stick to the 40 bowties your using.

Otherwise any of the other tires these guys are mentioning work good at Leisure.

response will fit revo rims or 40's if you cut the rim a certain way.

Gotta agree with Mich on this one. Last year the Responses gripped crazy on Bernies' dirt. No need to think anything would change. I just hope the guys running them can handle that traction!

Mr. Tune · (#462 (**permalink**))

Responses are awesome at leisure! Excellent traction and super light!

Michowski · (#463 (**permalink**))

with the indoor track soaking wet or completly dried out you can get to much traction with the response tires either way. Talk about forward bite. Its unbelievable. My truck is hooking up more at the new track vs the old one. Response tires are were its at for leisure.

yea im definately gonna get some response tires. im just not sure if i should put them on hurricanes or go 23mm with wabashes? any suggestions lemme kno

Michowski · (#465 (**permalink**))

im getting a new set put on 17mm ofna's. I personally dont like 23mm setup. Its a lot of added weight and no benefit for that weight. My stock size sizes and rims hook up exactly the same as 23mm tires, they neither of them break, only difference i see is that my setup weighs a lot less compared to 23mm setup.
