I was looking at the RC4WD 1.55 Landies but want to see other wheel designs.

I've used the gearheadrc ute and the motoworx 1.55 10 hole. I like the motoworx better also. Both have a slight flaw though, they don't fit over blue monkey knuckle weights. Nothing a dremmel couldn't fix.
I'm also using the new glue on krusher and except for my lack of glue skills I like those also.

I wouldn't expect a 1.55 to fit over knuckle weights personally.

1.7 MT Classics look pretty awesome and 1.55 tires stretch on fairly easy.

They are made to fit the stock steel wagon wheels which are 1.55 and they fit with the glue on wheels not the gearheadrc or motoworx though.

It's funny, I had some raw motoworx 10 hole 1.9's with RBII's on the bronco but decided I liked the UTE's better. I think the blacked out 1.55 motoworx 10 holes look pretty sick though.

I'll eventually get the locked up scale hardware for the UTE's - that makes a huge difference IMO

Though it's not a sorcca rule, some clubs don't allow knuckle weights in class 1. I figure just put weight in the wheels to maintain a scale look since that's the point of 1.55 wheels
