Slick looking rig. What body are you running?Got a set of the RC Jun backflip 170mm for the Kraton. Had to glue the tires and it comes with 12mm, 14mm and 17mm hex options. Ran a few packs and pretty impressed with the performance offroad and onroad. Pretty close to the original. Limited ballooning of tires and sidewalls are very good. Picture taken before bashing....

I bet that thing is a missile! Thanks, I might have to pick one of those bodies up myself!
The skids are DIY from the setting blocks used for window panels. 6mmx12mm. Works well.
Use them for all my cars
Cool idea! I'm always DIY making stuff.The skids are DIY from the setting blocks used for window panels. 6mmx12mm. Works well.
Got the tires from aliexpress. Just be careful as they can swap between 150 and 170mm tires when selecting color.

The interchangeable center 17mm hex hubs hold up well?Have both the sizes, better than Dboots in terms of performance/balance/quality and especially the durability of the LPs. Oh yeah, the price was half cost at the time
0-offset and design integrated into the hub well. 6S Dboots backflips on the left fig.1.
The Jun tread even looks better. Thanks man.
Had them up to 65mph+ on road without a sweat, proper glue and balance is user responsibility
Nice. hard work pays off....inserting and gluing the tires plus a cordless hex for those interchangeable hub screwsHad them up to 65mph+ on road without a sweat, proper glue and balance is user responsibility
Yeah with gluing an Mt wheel/tire that big there’s a certain labor value that most don’t want to deal with. The rubber is thick and working around by hand while getting glue completely around the bead is not an elementary task, especially trying not to make a mess
I was just thinking this as I was looking at the pictures. The Jun treads look like they provide more bite.
I stopped gluing tires years ago: I'm not hard on my RC vehicles, and my pre-glued tires last a long time. I will not buy tires that need gluing from the git go.Yeah with gluing an Mt wheel/tire that big there’s a certain labor value that most don’t want to deal with.

Nearly identical to the Backflip MT weight.... Thanks.
