i just thinned my wheels and dammmm! what a difference.... i cut the 2 outside sections completely off and used the ridge all the way by the ribs. i get tons of traction and lots of flex i also rotated the tires so the tread pattern is opposite of wut it was stock. i have to thank pete aka DirkDiggler, for the help and idea on these wheels. hey pete when u gonna get me those templates?

Great job with the wheels. They do work well.
I took pics of the servo mounts this weekend when i was playing with my new suspension design. I will remove the mounts this week and make you some templates. I will then send pics and the templates to you.

hey big, take the tire off of one of the rims. u will see that on the outer side of the wheels theres two sections with lips on the outside, thats where the tire used to be mounted. now cut those off all the way to the lip on the inside with the ribs connected to em. and cut the ribs out. the glue ur tires on or get beadlocks and tudaaahh!
