[@johnhurst4908]

For some reason I can't comment but you deffo need to put them on the low rider with the hydraulics

[@TomleyRC]

Probably need some smaller ones

[@jsbrads1]

Slower because higher rolling friction. That’s why they use Slicks on dry days, lowest rolling friction.

[@ianbelletti6241]

​@@TomleyRC bigger wheel means higher top end speed available but also a higher torque required for the acceleration and to keep the speed. The motors can only supply a limited amount of torque. That means that for the mass of the vehicle there is an optimal axle to tire size ratio for the specific motors you have. If the tire size gets too large, the available torque will not be able to get the vehicle to a higher speed. If you decide to go with more powerful motors, you also can't forget that different motors have different design speeds as well.

[@mitsuman5555]

This is the kind of scientific research I come here for 😂

[@TomleyRC]

Haha.. the pleasure is mine 😅

[@Craig-wp3pz]

I find it somewhat dogmatic... 🤭🤫

[@uroprop]

The random squeak coming from some landings was funny af

[@TomleyRC]

Yes. So funny 🤣

[@xSaladShooterx]

Need to try a heavier truck to see if you can achieve maximum squeak. 😀

[@slowriderrc4790]

Hahah that’s genius 😂

[@The_RC_Guru]

That’s my post you saw and my pic you used here. Glad you used it and loved the idea as much as I did lol.

[@TomleyRC]

Awesome… thanks for the idea! It worked so well haha. Glad you’ve not got upset like a certain someone who did the same on a crawler. 😅

Genius stuff!

[@johnraygun9868]

Love it gentlemen, I don’t understand why people get butthurt over things like that, it’s a blast of a hobby and we all give each other ideas and make funner! Thank you both❤

[@AshimSingh1]

@TomleyRC now you’ve given idea to squeaky wheel manufacturers - new price will be X10 😂

[@jezm-l3941]

One slight issue is that any dog within a mile radius is gonna go apeshit at the sound of the car! 😂

[@bowi73]

that is a plus side i would say

[@DelDredd]

@@bowi73 Our dog was looking where the squeaking came from when you did it with your hands. Our old dog would have ripped the squeakers out within 5 minutes, they never lasted long with her and she was only a Bichon Frise.

[@williamreinhard]

We had a greyhound that went absolutely nuts when we encountered RC cars on a walk. Never saw him more excited about anything in his life. Squeaky toy RCs would have had him out of his mind with excitement.

[@DelDredd]

@@williamreinhard We had a dog years ago that liked to chase my Control line planes around, not bothered when they were on the ground, similar to one of the dogs now who will try and chase my Radio Control planes again only while in the air. Seems to think she can get to the Red Kites that fly round here even if at 300 feet plus.

[@zerrierslizer1]

@@DelDredd ngl, my grandma had one of those, and they can be ferocious!

[@holden8239]

I can’t believe how good these did everywhere, especially on the crawler.

Pet supplies store: this isnt an RC car shop. this is a pet store the hell?

[@burner8959]

There's a fine line between madness and genius. I believe you are tip-toeing one legged, down that line. Madness.

[@TomleyRC]

I’ll take either 😅

[@petehoefs2619]

Rc guru is a very good friend of mine and he never ceases to amaze. Never a dull moment lol.

[@Alventador]

I think you’re onto an absolute winner of a video idea here Tomley! Great work

[@TomleyRC]

Thanks dude

[@perryleduc1954]

​@@TomleyRCfor future ideas, i think nail clippers would work a little better, if not quicker to cut each individual spike off

[@dominicchesterman2107]

Thanks for that. My dog goes nuts at my rc cars. Now he's seen his squeaky doughnut on your trucks on the tv he's gone totally mad 😂!

[@bmoresbeast]

😂worked better than some brands they sell on eBay!!

[@TomleyRC]

Yes haha

[@user-fn7tq8uq8u]

Honestly from brushless floor mops,to squeaky dog tyres...whatever goes on in there,keep it coming!!

[@GrnArrow092]

Never have I seen an RC car go that fast in my life. It's awesome. The dog toy tires are pretty amusing to hear whenever it lands on the ground.

[@shawnington]

You made me spit coffee out my nose, Thanks Phil. I'd buy a pair, especially if they squeak. Was baffled when they performed better on the traction test in the shop.

[@ryanchen8403]

Probably due to the rubber being a lot softer than standard tires. If you have played with any knobbly rubber toys you should know that there is a bit of flex in the knobs. But as we can clearly see, they will slip on smooth surfaces.

[@17madracki17]

This is exactly what I've been trying to find for years. An RC tire that doesn't need an insert. One piece. J concepts and proline are going to see this and build them now haha. Awesome video

[@FarmerFpv]

You need the Big Bully Breed Donut squeaky toys and put them on a 1/8 scale heavy machine. It will then really squeak. That just sounded like a random mouse fart. 😂

[@eddiebirdie1545]

"Random mouse fart" what on earth are you feeding them?😂🐦.

[@TomleyRC]

I must do some research 😅

[@ConnorSinclairCavin]

The added visibility is quite nice as well, could easily add a strip of LEDs inside and make them glow

[@v3xx3r]

The self lighting ones like in kids scooters would be a chefs kiss

[@michaeldorich4485]

This was fun to watch and amazing how well they worked on the TRX4. I would love to see a video where you show up at a crawling outing with the dog toy tires. I am sure your friends would get a good laugh. You may have invented a new racing a crawling class. Great video.

[@SilvaDreams]

Funny thing is while they might not have as much surface area width wise the little nubs are fairly soft so they can splay out and get a better grip

[@YMS09D]

This looks and feels like something straight outta scrap mechanic, I love this. Might need to grab a kit and do this.

[@Specz187]

This is the coolest rc car videos ive watched. Never had hobby rc cars before but yours blow the Tyco ones i had in the 90s out the water. Great video and filmography

[@Mark-yy2vw]

Never a out of control dog when you need one but loads when you dont,lol

[@feelincrispy7053]

If they were painted black and then when the tread wears it pokes out purple dots. Thatd look sweet

[@dougeutsey9533]

I would have to prank them black also😅

[@nicholashaworth4110]

Your laughing is infectious. Cheered me up no end.

[@rcmakingtracks18]

Ha, makes a bit of a mockery of real rc tyres costing so much. Great entertainment as always, lol. Thanks for sharing. John

[@BlueDually4x4]

I am genuinely surprised they hooked up at the skate park enough to pull wheelies. Well done Phill, and the odd squeak really added to the video.

[@WestyCoastHermit]

My boys and I really enjoyed the morning craft time with Phil. That was an awesome and hilarious way to start our day. Thanks for that!!

[@TomleyRC]

Haha.. ‘Morning Craft with Phil’ could be a whole new series 😅

[@WestyCoastHermit]

@@TomleyRC It'll be a huge hit! Who wouldn't want to learn how to bedazzle a lexan body from you?

[@jankybit]

i have been chuckling at this idea all day. Good lord. Thanks for making the work day bearable!

[@adrianpilbeam7403]

Of all your awesome videos i've watched that has to be one of your best. Had me in stitches with the basher. One thing you didn't seem to pick up on though. There was hardly any ballooning of those tyres especially on the Rustler. Wonder if I can get some big enough for the Talion on Kraton 6s? 🤣

[@Talostd]

I didn't expect them to work as well as they did. The drive shaft breakage at the end was perfect. It means you had a good time out IMO.

[@lefthandscott]

Keeping RC fun! Nice one Phil, love you stuff dude 👏🏼

[@MangoJim90]

🎉🥳🤩 I wanna this as a "new" tread pattern for tires in 1.9 and 2.2!!! But in black ) Maaaaaaaaan!!!!!!!😍

[@Raptor50aus]

I want to see these with glittering lights in the wheels too LOL

[@eddiebirdie1545]

Me too.🐦.

[@geminimojo8019]

This is neat. I've got a friend that's always tinkering with RC cars, and I'm definitely going to show him this.

[@alonequanceappears454]

First thing I did was glance across to my crawler!! Gotta try this

[@PachezZ]

"this is funniest thing I've ever done" - strong Sam Pilgrim vibe there :D

[@daylightdies7194]

this must be how the police train the Alsatians to drive the dog vans 😂

Lol

[@Wagenmeister]

Acetone removes superglue, for next time then you dont have to ruin your hoodie.

[@CK4RC]

This is my new favorite video of yours! well done, sir! 😆

[@dbradford32]

When it bounces around and squeaks, it reminds me of the meme with the little person dropping into the water and making the drip sound. 😂

[@RCJunky]

I used to Race RC inside on a smooth floor. we used to add fine silicone spikes to our tyres to get grip. when the spikes flex you get more contact.

[@OneLoveRC]

I Love it I watch every upload thank you so much for continuing to do these videos

[@davidm8584]

I had a good laugh at this one! Love the creative builds. It's real engineering playtime 😂

[@talboyovGY]

That off roads amazingly with the dog toy tyres on

[@WinkelManBearPig]

This is the high quality content I look to you for right here!

[@Revoku]

the sliding effect is the same principle as knobbly motorbike AG tyres on a road surface instead of the offroad use they were intended, the tips of the knobs walk the tyre sideways(tho on a bike it usually means wipeout)

[@ludeguy]

Okay… those would be hilarious on a crawler tumbling down from a a rollover… I need to do this at a comp! 🤣🤣🤣

[@myslash09]

My dogs already chase my Rc can’t imagine what would happen if i had dog toys for tire . Enjoy your content very much 😊

[@giuniral]

More squeaky challenge please. That was hilarious.

[@TomleyRC]

I have 1 more idea with them 😅

[@MCsCreations]

Ok, Phil, you won the internet for today! 😂 But would those "tires" be accepted in competitions? Because, if yes, it's going to be freaking funny! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊

Brilliant Embedding finished product As part of different more valuable one

Genius, I'd like to see what they are like at high speeds! You may need to use a wide road though. 😂

[@Bash_TheStampede]

Absolutely one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. The cartwheel squeaks were the funniest.

[@adamwolfy4826]

As for it being slower, it has way more rotating mass to spin up with the weight of the dog toys

[@adamwolfy4826]

@@Seegster77 you saying if you filled your daily drivers tyres with concrete (or any material of your choosing) that it would still hit the same top speed?

[@adamwolfy4826]

@@Seegster77 ah yes, the train, with an engine and drivetrain designed to move the amount that a train weighs... do you have a degree in engineering? Or physics? Because i do 😅 google rotational mass and youll see exactly what im talking about, whydo you think race teams spend so much money on developing lighter wheels, to reduce rotational mass/load, meaning increased acceleration and less drivetrain loss, meaning more top speed

[@FastSS02]

Epic cyclones with the Rustler!

[@TomleyRC]

I got covered in plastic lol

[@MatthewSimm]

It's slower because if you take the radious, devide by the diameter, subtract the gear ratio and plus 3.14159 for the circumference = Me not having the faintest idea what im on about!

[@Matt.hurst1980]

Hmm? Would these stand up to high speed runs.... Next test please Tomley

[@insanebmxthomas]

i like your max 90's! recent model or impossible to get? Wonder what you think of the Rlaarlo Omni! That crash looked like a proper slayer, i'd personally feel like it would be allright as long as nothing else broke along with the control arm. Although i might expect a bent hinge pin.

Only done this on real trucks for the crawler part. What I did notice is the tall skinny tires I ran did allot better at climbing than my wider knobby tires.

This is great research - and I noticed that once they're covered in mud, they stop looking goofy, till you glimpse a bright orange inner sidewall...
