Nope, I have no plans to use the stock tires on my Axial. Currently I have mud slingers on it, but I am thinking about tossing my spare set of rock claw tires on it. I compete with a TLT, the Axial is just for fun

It sounds like the rock claws are a great tire, alot of people are running
them. who makes the mud slingers?
and what about the moabs

I prefer the masher 2000 over the moab, the rock claws are really good and they are what I currently run. The mud slingers are a scale tire, not comp worthy. But RC4WD makes them, they look sweet

most of the guys run the losi cawls but there are some people still running the m2 m2k's that I crawl with something the m2k's do great on but the losi is a all around great tire.also the "beadlands" or whatever they are they seem to be a good tire I have not used them on my own rig but I have drove a rig with them on it and if you axles will stand the almost 6" tall tire the hook up very well.sorry Ill get to the pics soon I went back to work the dvd at home didnt work and I didnt feel like seating in my truck waching chuky my gf rig and my rig but use losi tires Im running the kreepy foams..I havent got them for her yet but I will soon be putting rcp foams or kreeps in hers..

Yah I'm still around. Still don't have my CD2 project done or the XRRA/Crawl course done yet either. Life and family have dominated '07. Maybe '08 will treat my crawling scene better.
