The magnets are a good idea, though I had some glued to my wraith hood which in turn ripped off the paint. Maybe install a magnet bracket on the shell?

Did get her out on the rocks today, even let my 6 year old girls drive on the rocks and they did pretty good. Moving the battery did help quite a bit.

Those are Pro-Line Denali's. Metal rings and plastic wheels. I like them so far except that the bolts rust really easy but I've got something in store to hopefully take care of the problem.

Ever think about painting the bolts for the bead locks to match the body color?

No not really. That seems like a big pain painting all those suckers.

Looks good - how do you like the deuces wild compared to the stockers crawling wise?

Haven't been able to get out with them yet. When I get them out to my testing spot I'll let you know what I think. They are a lot firmer than the stockers but that's kinda what I was wanting.

They will stay firm, but let the tread work like it should. I donno about the Treps, but my RC4WD Compass tires seem to like the new foams.

How heavy is your rig? I'm worried mine may not be heavy enough to let the foams work the way they should. I bought them with that in mind though because I know its only gonna get heavier over time.

Scale bolts look great! Have you used the winch much yet? I have my Warn 9.5cti wired straight to 3s and it works pretty well.
