Looking for airless tires, trucks and an ESC for a DIY build. Preferably $90-100 or less for the wheels, $50-60 or less for the trucks, and an ESC less than $80 (don’t need anything fancy, VESC mini is fine - don’t need more than 13S and 20A). Need trucks at least 220mm to clear the sides of the deck. If anyone has a TB40 deck for $100 I’d be happy to buy it!
First question.
How fast you plan on going on them tires?

Almost any low budget VESC is going to top out at 12S

I have an extra set of these exact airless tires with 60t pulleys from a Flipsky drivetrain bundle
^ This is important ^ because the tires have a noticeable wobble to them and although I haven’t ridden them at all, I get the sense they would be unpleasant at speeds above 25mph.
You can have them for $50 if you want to give it a try though, and I can send along some balance weights that may help
Also have a set of TB218 hangers and TBv6 mounts

They also start to expand on the hub @ higher speeds. I cant say for sure how fast, but I wouldnt push these tires past 25mph. And that’s still questionable as no two tires are the same.
Ride with care bruh.

Challenge accepted lol?
I’ve got a few TB 4.12 I dont mind blowing up lol.
Save those for the MCUs on them LOL
I don’t plan on going more than 20mph, so I’d be okay with the wheels. If you have the set for $50 I’d be more than happy to buy it! How much are you asking for the trucks and mounts?

I’ll PM you. The trucks will need some minor modification to fit these wheels because of the axel length but it’s doable
