I can’t find these on his website, where did you get flat profile offroad tires?
Edit: NVM found 'em, just not listed on the sidebar.

3-28-25 update
I wanted to add some sort of display to the honey badger build. I was looking at the Megan, but looking like $325 shipped.
So I dug into the parts bin and found an old Davegax screen that I think still worked.
Since Davega was discontinued, I modeled and printed out my own case.
Super impr ssed with the A1 mini. I never thought I’d be able to get the lettering to fit. 1st try and it popped right in.

That is really creative, nice job!
Super cool with the inset lettering! Did you glue it in or just friction fit?

I thought I would need glue them, but the fit is so tight I don’t think I need to.

Quick Update
Swapped the reacher 7490 171kv out for flipsky 6384 140kv. I had these in the parts bin and they seemed to have solved my thermal throttling issue.
Added some custom mounts on the back for olight tail lights
Made a custom mount for olight headlight up front
Installed 20 mm belts. (20t motor 68t wheel)
Ordered some reacher 6485 173kv.
Wiring for flipsky motors is temporary since I’ll be swapping them again. I printed a thicker gasket with cutouts for the wires. Still looks reasonably clean to hold me over until I do it up for real again

Ditched the flipsky 6384s and added some Reacher 6485 173 KV.
Got my cables cleaned back up. Soldering the weipu SA8 6 pin was a bitch for the sensor wires.
Created a hard TPU wire channel to protect the Davega cables, same thing for the power wires.
Cut my carbon fiber vesc enclosure to panel mount a connector on the bottom for Davega cable. I use a jewelers saw for making cuts like this in carbon fiber plate.
Basically caling this one done at this point. I just need to come up with a name.

How does the 200x70 fits on the Hubba hubs? Did you had to 3d print a lip for them?

yes, to get it centered. Also they are just barely wide enough. you need to compress the rubber a little bit until the hub bolts can grab and suck the two halves together.

What filaments do you recommend using for this?
Personally I don’t think it matters. I think mine are pla+ they aren’t taking up any load, just centering the tires during mounting.
Once the tires are pressurized I do think the ring is doing anything at all as the friction of the rubber is holding against the rim.
If you wanted to make absolutely sure that it doesn’t deform under the summer heat and heating of tires. Then use petg or nylon cf or pet cf.
Pet cf is my favorite high temp filament, but it is abrasive so you should have a hardened nozzle. Petg would be fine
