Is anyone else having problems with the front tires splitting on their JLTOs?
I have several that are splitting front tires. :freak:

yeah, me too... it's weird, though. it's only on certain cars. Some of them dry out, and some don't...

Which ones? I want to check mine.

I haven't had that problem with any of mine yet....strange....

Hmmmmm.....I have not had that problem come up yet. Although, most of my cars spend a majority of thier time in display cases, rather then running on the track. (A sad side effect of one-bedroom apartment life) I wonder if it has to do with track time, how hard they cars are run, or a combination of both.

Hey Mates,

I've had a problem with a couple of cars, and also the rear tires. It seems you cannot stretch them at all or they'll split. I have had a few of the pullback tires just crack like an old "regular" slot tire, without even touching them. It must be the type of compound they use.

Cheers..

aw jeez, I dunno. I switch the bodies and chassis around so much... i didn't mean it was certain bodies,I just meant it was only some of them and not all. I've actually found the good JLTO front tires work pretty well on the rears of stock skinny-tire Tjets. Not as good as silicones but much better than the stock Aurora rubber...

Have had a few from the third and fourth series that did, just figured they were some offs that made it through. rr
