low cost drift tires
heres a tut i borrowed from Murdoch(thanks)
find some tires that you don't mind painting find or buy nail polish spare driveshaft 1 take your tire and mount it, then put it on the driveshaft 2 coat the tire in an even coat of nail ppolish 3 find an extra wheel to prop up the driveshaft 4 let it cure and paint on another coat 5 repeat to all four wheels/tires in the end your tire will be very slick, and depending on the tire softness, it can vary in grip i made some myself with hard slicks, and it slides with a lot better control than with the rs drift kit the nail polish can probably make 20 or more sets of drift tires at ~$10 a bottle ps. sorry i don't have pics |
Nice tut. Pics would be nice for those members who like visuals :)
You can also do something similar with CA (cyanoacrylate, krazy glue, superglue, w/e). But it produces a similar grip characteristic to the stock drift kit tires. |
I just bought pvc pipping and cut them to size. Im going to have to trim the body a bit though...so im using beater bodies to drift with. The nailpolish is a good idea though. I didnt even think about that
|
they do drift well though
|
yeah i've done that, it works...just dont use soft slicks..then u go out of control with a stage 2 motor and RWD
|
go awd with these
|
I drift with taped tires and it work pretty well for me lol
