Default In My Opinon

I think this could turn into a guessing game, but my advice would be use whatever makes you feel ok with your rigs setup. I have a AX10 ARTR and I run 8oz in both fronts and 4oz out back in each wheel. Some say my setup is to light but I don't care, because it works for me just fine. Its just enough to put weight to the ground, but not to much to slow its performance down.

i just run a full strip of 1/4 oz on all wheels so it adds weight down low and doesnt put to much strain on my driveline. then i tune the weight with my battery and electronics.
