tire rims and replacement tires

Had what I believe was a pinch flat yesterday on my emax as I didn't see any object penetrating the rubber. Pumped it up today and it seems to be holding air. My question is...if I did want to upgrade my tire currently 3.0-10" is it possible to go to a larger tire to increase speed? And I'm not talking about a wider (3.5) one but larger. Can you put a 13" tire on a 10" rim???

Well just checked the tire and it's flat again...what could be causing this? There is no observable puncture in tire (tubeless) so what should I do? Put a tube in it and/or replace the tire?

I think you would need to get a new RIM to use the larger tires. The Emax has 10 inch rims, so you would need to find a 13 inch Brushless hub motor for the rear which may be hard to find. As for replacing.....I would just replace the tube or even patch it. Hope this helps. God Bless :)
