Tarmac tyre choice for Cat (rev-lite dish wheels)
Hi all,
Im looking for a decent set of tyres which will be a straight fit for the standard Schumacher Rev-Lite dish wheels. Its something that will grip well, but not wear quickly on tarmac. Im going through too many mini-spike tyres at the moment when racing on the road/tarmac tracks near me; so a good alternative would be fantastic. Thanks for the help and suggestions! P.S. my Cat doesnt run hex wheel adapters, just the standard pin type wheels. |

These should work well and last a long time:

Hey Mick - thakns for the help mate.
I actually laughed out loud when I saw them, cause Dirt Hawgs are on of my fav tyres - been using them for about a year now on my old Tamiya 4WD. I wasnt sure that they would fit the Rev-Lites though, as they seem a little smaller than the 2.2" Prolines - maybe thats just Schumachers weird "12x20" thing they have printed on their tyres that is throwing me - Im not even sure I know what 12 x 20 means! So the Prolines will definately fit the rev-lites? Thanks again! P.S. racing in Dublin? I'll have to come down sometime and see the setup if thats ok? |

Yep the dirt hawgs will fit 2.2 wheels. I've a set somewhere on B4 rims.
12 x 20 is the number of spikes on the tyre. 12 along diagonal (from left to right) and 20 around the circumference. Dublin: as Tony said more than welcome to come down to any of the race days. Have a check of the club website. But generally there is racing every Sunday. MiCk B. :-)
