| Add weight to VP method 1.9 wheels
I am looking for ideas to add weight to my VP method 1.9 wheels. I was considering just wrapping some stick on weights inside under the foams but didn't know if that would make the foams more stiff? How have you guys added weight to these wheels?

I'd recommend not actually adding weight to the wheels themselves. It increases rotational mass and is much harder on parts. I've started using the Blue Monkey knuckle weights and absolutely LOVE them. They have versions to fit just about any knuckle you could be using. I have the VP 8-degree knuckles on mine currently. |

To lower the cog and help keep the wheels planted on the ground. My truck is very light, it's just over 5lbs with the battery.
