|  Clodbuster Wheel and Tire Alternatives
I'm working on a custom build monster truck. I like the clod wheel/tire combo, but if I can find a cheaper alternative, I'm game for that. I have seen the ProLine Brawler/Destroyer combo and might go that route if I can't find something else. I like some Imex products, but the website doesn't list specs. Any advice or suggestions?

I think the pro-line tire and wheel combo is gonna be the least expensive... Unless you find a full set of stock clod wheels and tires on eBay that is another alternative. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk |

Do you have an idea on how light (or heavy) there are?

They're not bad, no worse than the Maxx tires and RPM Rims I had on it before. I can take my stretched Wheely King to work tomorrow to see what the weight of that combo is, they do have some great grip for what little I've driven the truck.

| Re: Clodbuster Wheel and Tire Alternatives  Looks like they're 11.7oz per assembly, so all 4 should weigh 46.8 oz, not including wheel nuts and hexes. |

im running the same setup the 17.5mm offset ones tho. so far 3s brushless is not an issue, even with wideners on. i did however bend the outer shaft that holds the wheel on one day. only con about the proline wheels is that i had to convert to a screwdriver with a 8mm end skinny enough to fit down the tunnel to bolt the wheels on. |

Installing 8mm nuts onto the stubs, is what he meant?

yea thats what i meant. because if you use a socket it will forever be stuck in the plastic tunnel were you bolt the wheels on.

You must have been using non-flanged nuts. I don't have that problem using socket ratchet.
