I suspect either longer shocks or limiting shock travel so you don't run into clearance issues with your wheel wells.

Well, it really depend on the outer diameter of the 2.2 tire you are using.

The Traxxas lift kit was designed for going to bigger diameter tires.

Also - which body you are using matters, as the fender openings differ.

Trimming fenders or raising the body posts may be all you need for a smaller OD 2.2 tire, but adding the lift kit might be needed for a really tall tire.

Here's a good thread:
