1.9s look better scale wise but the 2.2 will perform better plus there easy to swap

Yea...I want a trail class truck..maybe smaller 2.2 tires? 1.55's?
Another question...do 1.5's only work on 1.5 wheels?
If I did go with 2.2 tires what's the height of rox lox

hey dudes! been tinkering with the rig.. mostly driving it!!
mods iv done:
-a crap version of handbros steering.. still with the y link setup
i sheared mine while wheeling it pretty hard, had to do something
-added some running light leds in the grill and rock lights on the front shock hoops
thats about it i think i need to get some R2J 4 link trusses and some different shocks.. these seems to bind up on me and i want a little more flex out of it...anyway here is a few pics from the last few days..





fuzzy wheel speed pic lol
