Default Finally ordered wheels!!!

Well after stripping out a stock wheel last weekend I had to get some wheels. I REALLY liked the Vanquish Procomp revolvers that allow you to adjust the weight from the front so you dont have to remove the wheel from the crawler but by the time I figured in the cost of the weights and wheels it would of been another $100. And I just didnt have the cash right now and needed wheels. So I checked with RPPhobby and he had the Mayhem Double Phattys instock so I ordered them up. What I was wanting to know from people running these are you still adding stick on weights to them? I am thinking about if I need more weight in the front end just adding the weights to the battery plates on the front axle. That way I can adjust the weight.
