They are pretty nice. I can bring one for you to check out. Really, they all have pros and cons. I was wanting to give Locked Up RC's new lockers a go too. I would put the Grip Fab Lockers in line with the VP. They're great.

Heck ya! I wanna run. Just gotta be back by 2 (1400) to head to work. If I gotta lose some sleep so be it.

I'm just waiting on my Hubs to arrive from VP and Fiona will be on her first set of SLW's. Typical woman, she can never have enough shoes....

Hallo cepas!
Question could you tell me the inner diameter of the wheels ( I guess it should match the ID of the rear beadlock) I need it as I am using weight system on the front knuckles would like to check whether these wheels would fit my setup...

And also I saw the wheels are1,1" wide do you think it allows the pit bulls tires to sit and shape properly for a good performance? Hope you understand...... Thanks from Italy!!!!

The diameter of the interior bead lock rings is what will matter here, and it is 46mm.

Here is a picture with the Pit Bull Rock Beast II's mounted to the wheel to give you an idea of the tires attitude on on the wheel. The tire is so wide that the sidewall still protrudes past the bead lock ring. I'm thinking you could probably get away with putting these tires on a 1.5" wide wheel. The same would be true for the RC4WD IROK.

I've been meaning to share this. I was playing around with some different gearing combinations. I knew this one was unusable on a trail, but I had to put it together just for this shot. It's pretty funny.

Haha that's awesome! How you like those pitbulls?

They're great. Pit Bull Rock Beast II's and RC4WD Irok's are the two best 'scale' 2.2's on the market. IMHO

I've been meaning to get the CI's in FIona, but I like the Proline Dual Stage Memory foams too.

How was mounting the pitbulls? and do they wheels hold a bead pretty good? Thanks

The Motoworx Racing Wheels hold on to the bead like a fat kid holds onto a fork.

Or like a Pitbull on a 70yr old lady's arm...ha
