The Hot Bodies Sedona has worked well for me in situations like you describe.  |

The MudSlinger is a very good Scale tire, if you are going for Scale performance definitely look at the RC4WD tires. If you are looking for all out performance I would say the Sedona is a great choice. I will be trying some pitbull tires as soon as they arrive, they might be a great option too. |

I would go for the TSL Super Swampers by Proline. I have a set and love them. I've crawled, in snow, wet rocks, dry rocks and snow covered rocks. Great tire.

IF ITS YOUR FIRST CRAWLER WHO CARES, WHATEVER CAME ON CAR IS GREAT STARTER TIRE. DIAL IN YOUR RIG AND THEN BUILD A SUPER GRIPPY TIRE OR GET A SEDONA OR A BOGGER TYPE TIRE FOR SERIOUS MUD SLINGIN FUN... NICE TO MEET YOU MAN. BTW LISTEN TO JEREMY H HES AWESOME STAND UP DUDE. HELL ALWAYS SHOOT YOU IN RIGHT DIRECTION. |

Thanks, well i bought my rig in the uk, so there wasn't such a huge choice of rigs to buy, mines 'Maverick' built, its 1:10th scale on a 2.2 tire, it's a little better than standard although the tires it came with are great indoors but wet rock and mud they really struggled, Last edited by Tom94offroaduk; 12-29-2010 at 12:30 PM. |
