Cool New newbie

Ok so not only am I a crawler newbie it took awhile to handle this forum. I'm ordering 2 (for friend and I) Rockslide RS10 XT's end of month. Ya ya I know save your bucks and value up, but question is what brand of tire should I look at for a better grip. Yes I could take out foam or cut it. I prefer a better tire. Thanks 4 advice.

Nothing wrong with an RS10...my first crawler was an RS10 and I learned a lot by running it.

Yip, you're right the tires need upgrading.

what type of rock will you mostly be running on?
