One thing you should never do is "BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU". Common courtesy goes along ways with everyone. I have read this entire thread, and you got exactly what you asked for.

Now honestly, I love to build Rigs and I like to build them to a high level. No matter how great I build a Rig, if I can't drive it, it won't perform. There are people on here who could take a stock rig and out perform the highest level of build being driven by a "ROOKIE". Money won't solve your problem, time and practice will. Now go put on your Big Boy underpants and go play with your toy truck.

Oh ya, Everyone who brought Great information to the table for Pabust. THANK YOU !

Thank you Dan This is exactly (part) of what I'm saying, now we just need to see if he gets it through his thick skull

A different truck and another forum is also a very good idea. You clearly want a clodzilla type thing that will go up stairs etc.

I`ve tried to read most of the posts and cat fights . But now for a real question or remark .. On full size vehicles when bigger tires go on and hard wheeling with stock running gear , things start breaking , is that true in scale rigs too ? I`ve had my wheels off and that hub thats held in place by a set screw and driven by a small pin through the axle , then on up the line what breaks next ? So is it really worth it ? I have a taller set of tires here that I thought about putting on the Wraith , but I can`t find wheels that fit to these Mickey Thompsons so I have to make an adaptor so I think I`ll put them on the Summit ,it has bigger axles and hubs with larger tires .

Everything else breaks.

Knuckles
C's
Stub axles
Lockers
Ring gears
Bearings
Driveshafts
Trans gears
Spur gear
Axle housings even


Anything 6"+ is going to be a bad idea for reliability.

HMMmmmmmmm...... Just search for it..... or you can always make your own tires if you don't like the 5.5. When ever I can't find what I am looking for I make it.

Crawler Innovations sell a foam set-up for a 6in tire. RC4WD makes a set and then someone posted a pic.... You than post "Hopefully somebody comes out with a tire of 6" " ????? WTF are you kidding me!

WOW!!!!! Ok.... Go drive and practice and then practice more and then even more. Then read all the NOOB post's you can find. Learn how to do this "search" thingy everyone's been talking about...... Then after all of that.... DO NOT! post stupid questions like this again.... Sorry for being "that guy" the asshole..... But it gets old.

There is no such thing as a stupid questions. Just Stupid people asking them.

Maybe you ought to re-post this in the tire and wheel section. Your outcome may differ. But that would've made way too sense.

hey you play with them to. just take it as lesson learned and leave it at that. not going to get a whole lot of love in this forum asking for a 6" plus 2.2 tire. most are going to tell you to go buy a super. just how it is. i have more fun on 4.9's than my 5.5's.

Unfortunately i can't get them

You can get them, but you don't want to pay for what you want. So don't say you can't.

School is out for summer.

[Duramarks]

I would love to have a set of 6" tires too. You guys make it seem so wrong to want bigger tires.

[SkinInc69]

If you want bigger tires buy 17mm hex adapters and run 40 series tires and wheels.

[crawler nut]

They make 9" Rok Lox. hahahahaha.... Well at least they used to. I had a set on my old super. Is that big enough for you guys?
