Tire weight on Clod Crawler
 
How much weight do you people out there run in the front tires and the rear tires on your clod super crawlers? I've been playing with different weights and haven't found one I like quite yet. Also, what tires and pinions are you running? I am running stock 13 tooth pinions on 75 turn motors, Rooster Crawler ESC, Moab XL's and two 645MG's for both front and rear steer. I currently have a 1/2 pound in the front and a 1/4 pound in the rear total. I'm thinking this might be too much and am thinking of going 1/4 pound up front and nothing in the rear. To begin I had a pound up front and a 1/2 pound in the rear. TOO MUCH WEIGHT!!!! I thought anyway. For a while I didn't run any weight with a set of HPI GT's. It seemed okay.

I would just like to know so I have an idea of how to set up my truck.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best thing is to just try something if you don't like it change it back and make a different change

Not to be a jerk but, this has ALL been covered before.

I have said it before and i will say it again. 1lb in each front not actually in the tire but on the knuckle. The defending national champ runs the same.
In the rear i run 4 ounces on each knuckle.

As for my setup it is 7tooths 45t v-11's 3cell 4500 lipo dual MM's with xl's on Thorns.
