In the upper right corner of your screen right underneath the ad there is a search button. Click on it. Type in TLT. You will be surprised how much information you can find. Hope this helps.

you are going to want the fronts because they have more offset, which will give you more width.

I just picked up 2 sets of the fronts and narrowed them via the inside bead. I haven't run them yet as my project is not complete but so far so good. You will need to either drill out the center a bit to get the wheel nut to tighten properly or get the blackfoot axles. Also, they say they are dyable but don't believe it; well at least not black. I tried to dye mine black and they came out a dark burgandy instead. I also drilled 3 small holes around the middle of the wheel to allow air in and out.

For building ideas you might want to read through the top two or three threads (the FAQ and the How-To) . Lots of great information there. Ane definitely use the search function. You can answer most of your questions with a simple search.

yup the traxxas 2055s will work. i ran two of them on my truck. but if you can i would try to get a higher torque servo. Because although they could turn the tires they didnt do the best job at it.
