Yes they are. There are no rules on Motors.. I'd run a 50T over a 60T.

Question Should I run a 55-turn just to be safe?

I don't really know the difference between the two.
Should I just go with a 55T then?

The Higher the number the Slow the Motor. Thats the basic rule.

The 50T will provide you with plenty of Slow end Control and give you more Wheel speed then the 55t and 60t.

35T or 45T are my favorite 540 crawler motors.

The Holmes Hobbies 7T or 10T Cobalt puller are my favorite motors overall but they are tough to fit in some comp chassis'.

I went from a integy 65 turn to a holmes hobbies 45 turn handwound. I love the 45 turn. plenty of power, and plenty of wheelspeed.

plenty of run time from a 1350 3cell lipo too.

im with Grizzly on this one ....... 35 and 45 turns, wheelspeed when you need and plenty of torque when built good.

Are you more likely to stall on a 27-turn motor? Anyway, thank you for the tip about suggesting 45-Turns+.

Talk to you later,
