What are you using it in? 55t is the most popular, but you can use the others as well, depends on your gearing, # of cells in your battery, and what kind of wheelspeed you want out of it.

I have a 55 turn in my truck andf I like it, even though it is geared way too high. Maybe somebody should put together a little motor guide outlining motor choices with different combonations of things. Like a 6 cell sub-c pack is good with a 55 turn.....or something to that effect. I would attempt to put a guide together, but I don't think that I know enough to make the info correct.

for strictly rock crawling i like 65 turn motors with 8 tooth pinions, i might even try 75 turn motors when i get some extra money. in a basher/rock crawler i like 35 turn with stock pinions.

75 has more torque, but a lot less wheelspeed.

i have a 65t lathe, i think it is a little slow. In a stock maxclimber they are fast because of the high gearing, but in my crawler i think imay jump to a 55, or i might try a 45 for kicks.
