| Best tire for rock crawling
What is the best tire rock crawling. I don't do much mudding any more. The Flat Irons are ok but any time I go on any incline they just start slipping. Thanks |

Rovers/C.I. Double duece foams. Or you could cut every other lug on the Flat Irons, I've heard thats the hot setup for alot of terrain.

Rover white dot are probably the best overall when it comes to changing conditions but there is no best that will work everywhere it's all about the rock.

Hi all, uber noob here. My first upgrade to my LNC is a set of Rovers. They are quite an improvement over the stock rock claws. |

I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned before now, but I assume you're looking for 1.9 sized tires since you have a scx-10 in your signature. If so, none of the tires mentioned so far will work for you since they're 2.2's. Check out rc4wd's 1.9 tire selection...they seem to be the popular choice with the scalers. The Rok Lox are the most common I've seen and the mickey thompson baja claws are really nice as well. http://store.rc4wd.com/Offroad-Tires_c_11.html |

I use the Rover White Dot with Nova foams and they are awesome. Just my 1.7 cents worth.

I have rovers and sedonas cant tell much difference between the 2. They are both way better than the stock tires that came on my ax. Dont forget to spend a little extra and get some good 2 stage foams this will help almost as much as the tires themselves. |
