Where can a guy find sticky TINY(as in, no more than 2" tall) tires? I'm currently building another homemade crawler, with a 6" wheelbase. I know, sounds cheesy, but i'm a pretty decent fabricator,i have the parts and I just wanna do it. Besides, how cool would a rig that you could wheel on a gravel driveway be?

Are you looking for wheels or a wheel/tire combo? Lots of good crawler tires in the 1.9 size, and if you get the wheels in the 1/18th size (whatever that is...I could go measure some if you need....), then you can cut and glue the bigger tires to fit the smaller wheels you are using. Very cool.

I came up with an idea to make my own. super soft compound,ugly as sin and likely very grippy. we'll see. i am giving myself 2 more weeks with it, due to almost eveything needing to be fabbed. I'll post pics then.
