So should I stay away from the Revo 3.8" rims?

The TTR rims have 28mm offset.

Those Hole Shot MTR's little pins look like they would wear instantly.

Let me know more of what you guys think is the best tire for LHR indoor.

Thanks,
Joe

the holeshots dont wear at all on loose blue groove so i would imagine indoor with losts of traction they would not wear at all

holeshots don't wear like you would think. Joe's right though, the boa C's are tried and true, they work great with stock foam so easier on your pocket book as well.

I'ma be honest, TTR rims suck, skip those all together. I had a ebmodded P5 in my revo and the 14mm hex held up just fine. I will say (before you waste your money) response tires will get blown off the rims with BB power. Revo 3.8 rims are ok but go with pythons if you really want those rims.

If it was me, boaC's or holeshots on proline standard offset rims

oh and don't look at my avatar, I ran those rims for a milisecond before they were trashed. Don't run 40 series unless they have the 23mm hex.

Boa 'C' are the ticket for indoor at LH. Everyone is right, they will last you the entire season and then some.


If only I were a millionare.

proline standard offset 14mm will be fine, even with BB power
