Default King S.C. Slash shocks or proline slash shocks for wraith???

Hello. I'm working on my parts list for my new wraith and which shock would you say is better. The proline power stroke shocks for the rear 118mm or the King short course shocks 110mm? I would think the prolines are better but what do you think? I'll probably get a droop kit so the length is no big deal. The reason why I choose between these two is because they seem to look and work better than standard shocks. Thanks in advance.

Nah that's one thing I'm not getting, thanks for the suggestion though. Well I guess I'll get the prolines, what do you think about those? In my experience with Gmade...there too much of a hassle.

Right now I'm running the Gmade 103 piggy back shocks. Have no complaints on those babies. You might consider looking into them. Cheers!

I've owned 3 sets of gmades and don't like them. Ill either get the prolines or the Kyosho shocks. Besides I don't feel like building shocks and proline is wayyy better than Gmade...in my opinion.

Do you have experience with the king short course shocks that he is asking about or are you basing this on the small bore scale king shocks?

I run the 11 mm rears and found wraith springs work very well on them



Good shock. Holds oil longer then others of tried but still leaks. I did not slime them
