2.2 tires

Best way to run 2.2's Get a body with round wheel wells like mine or like the pro-line 72' Chevy body
Using the kit's Jeep body Put on 100mm shocks & raise the body post a little.
And you sill would have to trim the body's fender wells some.

Although not on my SCX10-2, but still the body from it (shortened it to a 2-door) is on my 2.2 comp truck (scx10 rear axle, narrowed AR60 up front). I run the shorter Proline Super Swamper TSL (5.4") and they fit inside the wheel wells nicely.

I'm using Axial plastic hubs for the Yeti, the wide ones out back on a stock width scx axle. My front axle is wider so I run the narrow hub up front

HI ( Say What ) , This is what I am useing for Tires / Wheels & Hubs
Pro-Line Interco TSL Super Swamper 2.2" G8 Tires - 5 1/4" Tall
Pro-Line FaultLine 2.2" Blk/Blk Bead-Loc Yeti F/R
Vanquish SLW 350 Wheel Hub's (2) Sets
Vanquish SLW Hub Screw Kit - (2) Packages (24) Total
Or scale screw's that look like real lug nuts. - Them are what I am using now.
And you have to buy a special tool to install them so it can get a little pricey.
Just To Note:
After running my truck with that setup above, I had to do a lot more modification's.
Then just putting on 100mm shocks. I had to trim the under pans that the sliders mount to.
More trimming of the body & had to raise the body some.
Starting to think if it was really even worth going with 2.2 tire's at all now.
Will have some Up-date pics soon.
