Default Best looking RTR axles in your mind?

Yes, what is yours?

I'm looking for one set on RTR axles but which one is more scale??

Width is not a problem.

They are all ugly, I typed out several and realized they aren't RTR (like the AR45 conversions).

So the least ugly I would also go with Axial AR44 or AR60...the rest are either portals, huge diffs, no offset diff in the front, they all have something that makes them "off".

You'd be better off going aftermarket like Vanquish Currie F9 or D44, SSD Pro44, or something like that if this is a beauty contest.

I tend to agree with Phildirt. If you want lookers, screw RTR and go straight for some VP Currie or SSD aluminum housings for the AR44 gears. Perhaps the new straight AR45’s are a hot ticket, but I have not held them in my hands so I reserve judgement

I really liked the look of my Vaterra Ascender axles after I painted the chrome diff cover.

You don't need pretty axles to break instagram though. Just a multi-colored Toyota with a lot of stickers and 4.75ish tires for that gnarly one ton axle swap look. The key to pulling that off though is to remember things like "Flex Friday" and "Tire Tucking Tuesday" and such, you don't want to do the wrong pose on the wrong day, it's bad form. Bonus points if you hashtag every single brand of RC in the description so nobody knows what you are running under said Yota body.

Thanks for all the feedbacks...looks like I'm narrowing to AR45..

I found AR45 straight axles from Axial is out and also look good...Does anyone know if these Axial's AR45 ready to use? I mean included everything (like the gears, shafts, etc)?

EDIT:

I will use it for daily driver though but really want to be as scale as possible.
