your new drift tyre $16 per pack and each pack comes with 4 tyre right? rubber or PVC look alike material?

oh so it's really that one. i'm still using the grey colour tyre. because i thought it's just another PVC tyre but only black in colour and the price is abt 3 times of that of the grey one so i never got it. so it it really better than the grey one? how good is it?

dun tink i got time to try... wait for emperor to try the tires 1st on fri nite ^^

i hope the new tires will carry out the effect of weight shifting technique to drift it

PVC look alike material let mi test out tonite if back home early den tell u all the outcome.
as for the hpi drift tyres i brought is 100 percent hard rubber(same as tto1d drift tyres). smooth feeling same as pvc. hpi they come out with 2 kind of drift tyres. smooth feeling same as pvc like those wheels use for roller blading $12 for a pair. another kind look like real drift tyres with threads on the tyres at ard $17 a pair? can get it at tai sing toys.

view this site for the hpi drift tyres.
there is another 1 on the right side stage d drift tyres. thts the 1 i brought.

 

[OniHibiki]

ok guys just test out both drift tyres around 15 min for each

1st
winnie's newly import improve black pvc material drift tyres. compare to the old grey normal drift tyres. material a bit thinner den the grey 1. but control wise was great. unlike the old 1 which many user may find it hard to control and tends to spin out too much when doing a drift. this might b the better soultion for guys who wants a better drift grip feel.

main focus
hpi stage d drift tyres.
die die must get for drifters
smooth control and able to stop on time which compare to the black pvc tyres which i jus mention which still spin out a little bit. drift is perfect and the feel is great. get it and u noe wad i mean.
but recommanded more on carpet floor.
see the scratch it make on the tyres make my heart ache which i try on normal cement floor.

hpi stage d drift tyres can b found at tai shing toys. for those who wants to try.
12 bucks 1 pair not forgetting hpi rims also if not it won't fit.

so normal cement flooring... use the new black pvc tires... cheap n gd
