Scott, you'll probably want to go with any one of the tall Imex tires. All-Ts, 2.2 redrocks, or pullers. You will need the clearance under the diffs. Standard 2.2 wheels (rear stampedes for example) will fit right on your brass TXT hexes.

2.2 redrocks or moabs only choice if you ask me. moabs are better all around tire, and red rocks are great for sharp rock, everything else they do good, but i kind of wish i had a spare set of moabs to go on my emaxx.

Mashers are a tad taller than Moabs, and Mashers can work better than Moabs, it just depends where you're at. Here's HPI Split 5 wheels with the inside bead removed. Which is not a good set up for the TXT. I'd definately get the Stampede wheels. |

You shouldn't have any issues with rubbing. I've had pede rears and fronts on mine and didn't have any problems.
