Flat OD would look good. I think the claws are a hair too small. Maybe Geo's or something similar? Whatever you choose, I'm sure it will look killer.

This is going to be a sweet scale build. I think I would go with the 2.2 and some mashers. I think that would be a great combo for this body, especially with those sweet wheels

The 1.9s with the claw dawgs are really scale looking. At 1/8 scale, they come to 15", so it's perfect in my opinion.

looking good! the frame mod works, great job on that too. i've been modding the front of the bruiser frames for quite a while and it really keeps it from catching on the rocks (and looks better in my opinion too).
