I think I am going to go with soft stompers. What will give me more performance out those tires, mudrocks or proline 8 shooters. Is it worth it to go with the softs?

Mudrocks are prolly going to be a little bit wider than the new ProLines.

The mudrocks are a great wheel but are too wide for the Stompers and don't hold the bead all that well.

The Proline's will be a much better width but I don't think anyone has tried them on the Stompers to see how well they hold the bead. They may be fine but you never know.

I have tried the Axial wheels on my Stompers and I know they hold the bead well. I'm waiting for the new 8 hole wheels to come out in chrome.

I am in the works of rebuilding my TLT into a scaler and wanted to go the cheapest but also something that works good. I already have a set M2 moabs and they suck in mud or when they get wet, and they are a little small. I am not looking for a comp tire just something that looks good and works good.
