witch work better?

[landcruiser78]

hey guys so just this summer i got mudslingers for my scx-10 but anyways now that its snowing i don't know witch would work better for the snow! stock flat irons or the mudslingers?

any help would be appreciated

Mudslingers all the way i got 2.2's and 1.9's love them. And they clear out easy.

okay but the only problem i have is that the stock flat irons give me abit more ground clearance! so thats why i don't know what to put on! i only have one set of rims so its annoying having to undo all those bolts just to switch tires!

I may be wrong but in snow you want your tires to hold snow for traction.

[landcruiser78]

yes and the mudslingers would have more traction, but with my mudslingers, i have about half and inch less on ground clearance! and if your tires have more traction there probably going to want to dig more! and that doesn't help when u have less ground clearance!

Are you yelling at him for giving you his opinion? Or do you just use exclamation points to end all your sentences? I only use question marks?

[RksPlz]

No worries. ! these are for excitment CAPS ARE FOR YELLING AAAAHHHHH LOL. Try opening up the sipes on your flatties they worked alot better for me but I have not used them in snow try it let us know!

[landcruiser78]

by "spies" what is that? or are u saying sides? either way how do u do it?

[AX10wannabe]

wow you guys just made my day!!!!!!! hahaha lol...

anyhoo here's a thread to "siping".. not sipping on your coffee in the morning its pronounced with an "I"... say it with me folks.. "siping" haha...

siping just means cutting grooves into the solid lugs of a tire, it gives them more grip on rocks.. if you sipe the middle of tire it will give you more straight forward traction, if you sipe the sides of the tire it will give you more sidehilling traction.. everything you need to know about siping is in this thread.. if not ask a question.

Tire sipping/cutting pics/info. Add yours
