They dont grip well on rocks, dont use them if your planning to crawl with them. They are rather large. B1G has them on his F150, you can find it on XMS if you search. I think they are 2-3 inchs tall and 2-4 cm wide

This question comes up a lot so you really should have searched first!

To give you an idea of the size of the tires:



They need the axles extending and a bit of body shaving to work without rubbing! They look the part but don't really play the part! They are big and heavy and solid and don't really grip on smooth surfaces.

As alternatives I highly recommend the Ghetto Swampers (Off road tires stretched over slammed rims) or the Aoshima's but good look in finding a set of those.

irok's are about 5 cm in diameter. You want super swamper. THey are abut 3.7 cm but with some slammed rims they are about 4cm. Irok's are good for the mud not crawling.

Get a set of Lego 20x30 tires, I don't know how they compare to the swampers but they are soft. Haven't been able to really test mine yet though..

Here they are on mine:

Reference Images



Car Tire, Truck Tire, Off-Road Upgrade Tire, Aoshima Tire, and IROK tire.

Aoshima's are the way to go, IMO, but they are really hard to find nowadays.

Looks isnt everything,
I would rather have something that works, over something that looks cool,
Unless it never gets driven.

I was thinking about buying some swampers, but the main thing holding me back is, do you have to extend the D-axle that the wheels fit onto in order to
make the wheels fit? Several pairs of customized tires I've used, I've had to shave off half of the tire so it doesn't rub the chassis.

If anyone knows a tut for extending the D-axle then I'd buy
'em for sure
