Lead weights are pretty popular. I have some bb's, lead wrap and coax connectors on my rims to add weight. Experiment and see what works best for you. Check these out. AX10 Proline tuber Small mod but big differance in performance! Last edited by DJCrawlin; 10-21-2009 at 03:54 PM. |

I wouldn't invest to much time in the stock axial tires. You will gain more by running Rovers, than messing with the stock lizards. Rovers, good foams, and stick on wheel weights work great.

| Tire Weight Quote:
My rig is coming in at a overall weight of 5lb 8oz, and that is considered lightweight in this sport. Hey it works for me, and thats all that matters. | |

I am running 6 oz up front with no weight in the back and it works very well. |

Water Gremlins. Which are fishing sinkers.. They come in many different weights, just flaten them out, tape them on the inside of the rims.
