| no Haters plz I am the person who "designed" these tires and I can tell you that they are similar only in tread pattern which is a BFG inspired design. My tires are a different proportion and size . When I read this reply I feel that Im in the presence of a rude child who cannot keep his mouth shut about nothing and can only offer a negative comment on something he knows nothing about and feel pity for him. Anybody can point their finger and name names but I really feel that the people who read these forums are searching for something to inspire their own creativity and that is what Im here for and about . keep your hate off my thread and dont make me waste time answering to it |

| Everybodys got em
I had these TLT cantilevers kicking around forever. they fit perfectly in the holes provided. Im just screwing around with things this is not a final design. it was a lot of fun putting these on (on the fly engineering). they mellowed out the stiffness but didnt take much of that stiffness out. Ill get some proper Power Racing hardware tomorrow and get rid of those green things. |

Wow! There is something to be said for being proud of ones accomplishments and achievements, but a humble approach with some humility and dignity will go a long way to EARNING respect and acceptance.

Those tires must be hard as bricks or that box of lead is just a layer of weights on top of Styrofoam. This is some rock lizards/ stock foams and no vent holes on the light end of my Willys with a lil water in it. |

I did that reply at 1:30 am last night .Im sorry about calling you a rude child all u said was "knock off " and u didnt deserve all that crap I wrote . once agian MY BAD . And Thank you for your positive comment . I do think that its a pretty nice truck for the starting point of a good trail scaler. The springs are way to stiff and the bodie never makes it the end user without breaking . I shattered mine this morning during the video im going to post next . If your in the Bay Area rcdude come see me at the store and I will be happy to let you test drive any of the demo rigs Quote:

Those tires are not even flexing in my pics but they do have a soft compound that grips well . I have run them on my ax10 on my pile and they have good grip but no flex for sure . They are only 30 bucks for a premounted pair on aluminum rims |

| I guess this is the end of this thread
so I bought some Komodo 2.2 wheels . They are a 3 piece beadlocking designed rim and the rubber is like the other tire - good grip not much flex . I bolted them on my project Komodo and the really look good on that suspension to me. so Im gonna have to end this thread and start another one in 2.2 scale. I had try the old wheels on my pseudo scaler ( its a ta-01 with a really nice looking radio shack body - kinda like a litte bruiser) they look ok there so Ill leave em for a while |
