New wheels are sick, gonna cut the tires? I've tried a set that we're cut, loved them and bought a set of my own and will be cutting them.

might try cuttin em, ran em through some mud and they didn't clear very well. Figured I would try makin my wheels slihtly diff than the rest on here. haven't forgot about the mini zuk shells slowly have that mini chassis in the works, waitin till I get back stateside and meet some folks that are a wee more crafty than I am for advice, ideas n such.

Yea I put a new one in. Told her that if she has a problem let me know and I can walk her threw it on Skype. That was my only crawler so I have to wait til she returns. She'll be back in April, yea military to military sucks *ss. I figured it would help keep her busy moddin it some more or makin her own body.
