50 seems high for the stock Axial plastic beadlock wheels.

They are good wheels though but you can get aluminum beadlocks for that price.

They are great wheels. Very functional and decent looking. These days that price is a bit of a ripoff though.

I paid 25 for mine and still ended up buying aluminum wheels. Just skip plastic and go for nice aluminum ones

The scorpion rims are 2.2 If your gonna mount them on the SCX than be prepared to not only trim up the body but possibly experience some overheating issues as the bigger tires will put a strain on the motor and may cause some high temps.
