Definitely, but actually it drives really good, I got two trx4s so one as crawler and this as monster truck.

Just my .02 , but I like the other tires on it better. Thing just looks tough. Looks like it needs a nice deep mud hole to dive off into :-)

I do agree, but was having litte stability issues even though tires do clear but sit way in...so i went with less aggressive tires and more offset to get a nice balance.
