How To: Apply Racing/Sports/Comfort Tires on Dirt/Snow Track and Vice Versa! (+Pictures!)

[silverman_GT]

Does it work in v1.00?

 

[lGNAl]

Here some of the OP updates mainly for those who confused:

- There is some artificial grip made specifically for those dirt/snow tires.

- Only the 15th Anniversary and racing/tuner cars has the rim changed. The base model does not.

Any sparks while drifting or burnout ?

Any sparks while drifting or burnout ?

Nope. That depends on the terrain.

You mean dirt sparks right? Not fire sparks.

Does it work in v1.00?

Not quite sure. Ive started tested it since v1.12. Not sure if it applies to earlier version. Probably yes.

I mean fire sparks .. Since the snow tires have spikes.

 

[FoRiZon]

Oh. No. The game doesnt simulate that.

I need a way better explanation on this, do I need to have each tire in a different setup? or do I just buy all of them and then change cars? Im so confused HELP!

1. Buy a car
2. Go to the tuning setup
3. Buy dirt or snow tyres
4. Go to tuning tab A
5. Set the tyres to dirt or snow tyres
6. Go to tuning tab B
7. Set the tyres to comfort, sports or racing tyres.

When you go to dirt tracks and want to use tarmac tyres, make sure you have tab A selected before you enter the event. Then go into the tuning setup and select tab B. Don't touch any other settings or driving options, just go straight to the track.

When you want to use dirt tyres on tarmac tracks, do the same, but have tab B selected before you enter the event and then select tab A once you're in.

I finally got it to work

​

Beautiful!...black wheels AND large tires! (the tires of snow/dirt are so skinny...)
...ah, works in the R33 premiun too...When don't work in a particular car, uninstall or install the racing brakes.

Oops, I'd love to say I was quoting from MC Lars... but it was just a mistake!

Has anyone tried to set this up for an online-lobby ?, I won't get to play until later today but I am curious if it works for open-lobbies, i.e. can the room be setup to allow other tires beyond dirt/snow ? - and will the glitch work for people who join with a 'prepared' setup ?

 

[edwinpr]

I've tried, a lot. Comfort and Racing tires, instead get these wheels and gave up because it was two in the morning. I'll see if I can try again later.

 

[Kurei]

I can answer my previous question, that, this does not work for online-lobbies. The game reverts your car to the appropriate tires regardless of any setup tricks.

In order to change these ugly white wheels, just install the racing brakes...(if don't work, don't exit, just uninstall the racing brakes...This is the trick) I try with my Scion and works fine.

Thank you!

 

[dimassa19]

Thank you!

You are welcome...nice photo!

 

[RacingManiac]

So if you use the Comfort/Sport tire on dirt/snow would it actually have less grip on those surface? I always feel the snow tire in the game is too effective.

 

[D-Mind]

Thank you!

great pic!
thanks for the trick Op!

 

[FoRiZon]

I should add that, in most of the cars, the rim may be not what you desired on gameplay. But once you save the replay and play it on the gallery, the rim changes.

Sorry for the delay, guys. I recently tested it.

 

[BAP_Shockz]

Does this still work right now?

 

[WhiterunGuard]

Yes sir it does, I just did a drift lap around Tsukuba in a Tesla Roadster on Snows to make sure.

Edit: And might I say it is worth trying for everyone, a brilliant combo.

 

[dimassa19]

 

[nascarfan1400]

Is there a grip difference? Like will driving Daytona with dirt tires allow you to run the infield like a dirt track with better grip?

 

[WhiterunGuard]

It may just be placebo but yes, I believe there is a difference.

 

[smskeeter23]

Once again this proves that the "normal" rims can be used on these tracks. Why the hell are we limited to those stupid OZ racing wheels on dirt when using the "proper" tires?

I can confirm as well that this does not work online. It just makes you switch to a road tire, which for me seems to always be comfort softs.
