Default 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
