So there I am on eBay looking for some anti-Pledge tyres :D and spot these interesting 25 shores - http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11051...:X:RTQ:GB:1123

But... will they fit my car? Time to send a question to the seller:

Me: "Do these fit the Losi Mini 8ight?"

RC-Bitz: "Sorry these are too small, they are for the 14th scale cars."

So am I missing something? I thought Losi Mini 8ights are 1/14th scale?

Anyhoo, does anyone else know whether these will fit size / hex-wise? Ta.

I think they are a different fitting bob not a hex a triangle type?

The Carisma GT14 is a 1/14th scale touring car, the wheels and tyres are much smaller than for a 1/14th buggy, just like 1/10th touring car wheels are much smaller than for 1/10th buggies.

The outside diameter of those tyres is smaller than the diameter of mini 8ight wheels.

Okay, got you. Thanks guys.

The search goes on then...

1/10 touring car foams are what you need. Contact tyres are good. Think you were looking at mardave/supastox wheels there.

I have seen those before, but like the Enettis and RPMs that I have already, I'm struggling to find anything softer than 37 shore (hence why I was interested in the 25 shore ones advertised).

Considering how popular the Mini 8ight and similar cars are, I'm amazed how few soft tyre choices seem to exist, even worldwide.

How about these:
