Get 1.9's with the new taller tires like the rock crushers or cut down 2.2's Honestly the rigs that look better with 2.2's now that larger tires are available for 1.9s are very few and far between scale wise now. Mainly just the bronco bodies etc that are more 1.8th scale to begin with. I really like the body and the paint. Some HPI stock car wheels with the rock crushers or something would look sick. And degreen that steering piece  |

cut the moabs to 1.9  . you kinda have to have big tires since you cut the fenders so big

ok, well i got the paint striped and did some minor bondo work, should have dont a better job on the hood ( i think ill redo it) but its fine for now, i still need to paint the bed and tail lights, and add some minor details, but let me know what you think, so far EDIT: after i stripped the paint, i gave it 2 coats of red primer, and 3 coats of white, think thats enough? or do i need more?    |
