Default rc4wd tires?

has anyone ran any of the rc4wd 2.2 tires on there ax-10? they have some pretty nice looking tires out for the 2.2 rims but i was just wondering how well they work in the rocks? one set they have look alot like the BFG crawler tires that seem to be going pretty descent in the 1:1 crawling comps so i figure why not in the R/C scene. how do the rc4wd tires preform vs the stock ARTR tires? if they are a better tire do you think its good enough to justify the cost of buying them? or should i jsut go for a set of the panthers?

Dont waste your time on the RC4WD tires, they look great but thats it...Do yourself a favor and just get Panthers...

If you want performance don't bother with rc4wd.

I have some 2.2 rock stompers and them suckers are hard. On my scaler they they allow me to take the same lines or take the same trails, only because they are tall and give me clearance. They have NO traction and are very bouncy.

yer..pretty much what they all have said

rc4wds have crappy performance but they do look good.. i only use my rock crushers for my rock racer because they look scale..

ull be better off getting panthers or a good set of proline rubber
