Yup, that's what I use...give 'em 5 or so packs to break in (or do the sidewalk burn out trick)...are you gonna do any siping?

The nitro line I recognize, it's the smaller line I was curious about. Looks like aluminum or stainless rod.

Yes, depending on the conditions, I run several different types of siping. The easiest sipe, and one of the best imo, is cutting the factory sipes all the way down to the carcass...this can even be done with a set of wire cutters if you don't have a Dremel with a cutoff wheel

My new favorite Wraith build, really nice work.

What gears did you decide to run with the ROC412?
And what bats? 2s or 3s?
How's the top end?

Thx -
