your right.. well Im just starting to craw so I have plenty of time to use the r35 and then thinking what to use for desert trails (Baja 1000 off road terrains, sand, rocks, debris, trees, etc) and few rocks

Those are the first generation ones. I think the RB2 is supposed to be available in November.

IMO, this is the ONLY thing that I would do to those tires:

This will make the sidewalls softer and give it more of a scale look. "thumbsup"

any DIY on how to do this?

I did mine similar with some flush cutters to cut the lugs then took a dremel with a sanding drum to smooth it all out. Makes the sidewalls move a lot more. I dig it"thumbsup". I also did this to some swampers and dramatically changed the tire.

There are a lot of threads floating around here for shaving sidewalls.

I used a 4" disk grinder with 80 grit sanding wheel, didn't take very long:mrgreen:
