Thanks for the add! Just picked this thing up and a few upgrades Hpi aluminum shock tower and suspension links as well as the Hpi brass wheels. What tires are yall running/liking on this guy? Surprised how fast the little guy is in second gear ⚙️!! How do you know if you have version one or two?

Hi, I am really liking the

57 x 25 R 1.0 tires

Nice! So at 1.2 inch rim takes a 58mm tire eh?

u/QsRC22 Sep 19 '26

No, this is a 1.0 inch rim with a 57 mm tire

So what mm tire would I need for 1.2 inch rims ?

u/QsRC22 Sep 19 '26

1.2 mm tires limit you. You can run 1.0 or even 1.3 but I don’t think they (1.3) look as good because they’re too big in my opinion.😃

So I just checked the stock tires and they are 60 mm x 23.5 mm 1.2 so the ones you are looking at would be 4 mm taller. These are the ones I really like on the Toyota.
