Which RTR Looks Best with 1.55

[photocycler]

Looking to get an RTr and not mod it much. I do want to run 1.55 tires so looking for recomendations on which body the G6 or Rubicon would look better with a smaller tire. Also what would be a good size 1.55 tire to run with it, thinking the Irok's or Mickey T Baja Claws.

The G6 body has large wheel openings and probably wouldn't look very good with a smaller tire. Same goes for the Deadbolt. The Dodge Ram would probably look the best. Maybe the Rubicon. Check out the picture archives for inspiration.

I'd say the Ram or the Rubicon. Heck, if you got creative with it I'd imagine a rubicon on 1.55's with growlers would make a pretty decent C1 rig out of the box...

Oh how I wish PB would make a 1.55 Rock beast, preferably 4.15" OD

The Power Wagon would probably be your best choice for little tires since it has fairly small fenders.

Realistically, the PW body is probably closer to a 1/12 scale (wheelbase on the real one is 149")

just an example, using 1.9 with TSL SX (non XL).. it'll be too small if using 1.55 tires



note: I drop the shock mount about 10mm from the original mount to lessen the space between the wheels with the fender
