|  S.l.s. Toy
Hello guys... I've decided to upgrade my ultra light rig with a new body... The start is my amazing rig that won already 4 comp.. The rig was made to stay in our regional rules and truck where the narrow rigs are faster then the large ones cause lots of 35 cm ports width... So.... I've used the search button  to find a chopped and doved toy and I was amazed with the works of a guy here on the forum.So the body is this...  Started with the chop lines  Cutted some parts..    The bed...    Is a bit too log and maybe I will made a short bed also...   I've decided to narrow a set of tsl xl's also to meet the narrow target of the project...   The Tyres hate when you do that   But finally the results are great! Front and rear   The two Tyres before and after..  |

I really like how the tires turned out. I never liked the added width from the xls, these are about perfect now. I hope axial starts shipping their new 1.9s as well.

I don't understand why the trend is to make such large tyres, I understand the rules and the comp but if you need some steering angle with a normal width vehicle is impossible to use them... For me a perfect size is about 117/118mm tall and a 38/40 width on a wb of about 305mm | |

Does it still fit into this rule.. Pinching the front (2/3 the width of the widest part of the cab). |
