Lookin good.

In the pic, I was referring to the whole combo. The wider offset rims will put the tires out under the flairs. IMO, those tires might be a little too wide for the rims you have on there now.

I'm sure you'll have fun with it, no matter what wheels and tires are under.

Ah crap, yeah the tires are 30mm, 4mm thicker than the rims. Like you, I can’t stand bad looking wheels on a truck, or should I say ‘non fitting’. I’ve been saving 25 bucks a week for my “crawler budget” so I’ll soon be getting some new rims and tires. I’ll let these go for a few bucks or some other parts. And yes I am having tons of fun! But the tires are really really bad hahaha.

I'm a total nubee in this hobby too, so learning how to paint and doing some research. Did you paint the body on the inside or outside?

This was a hardbody so I painted it from the outside. Not hard at all. I usually use an airbrush for my model planes but this was just too big. There’s plenty of good videos on YouTube that walk you through many techniques wether painting lexan
Or hard bodies! Good luck!

RC4WD also sells different offset wheel hubs for the white spokes, one of my favorite wheels. Trucks looking good!
