Looks good Todd :cool2: What surface do you run on with them tyres? What wheels are they?

 

[Rossco]

They are 5T wheels & tyres Dwarfy.

Looks good!

 

[todd217]

I thought they were HPI with the orange wheel nuts Do you need adaptors to fit them?

 

[todd217]

thx but i did not paint it. im going to try them out as soon as i can find a state with out snow. i also ordered a set a desperados and ruff riders to see what they look like on it.

Looks good reminds me of my marder. The ram tech adapters worked out good but I didn't wanna run tarmacs.

Looks good but im not sure your tyres wont catch the body shell

I'm not a fan of the Baja tire look. I think they would look better with Hostiles. If applicable I would run rears on the front too.

I just found FS has baja looking wheels and tires with FG squares on them. some ribbed fronts would sure help steering

You will have to loose the Beetle body and under tray if your doing big air! I have the same trouble with mine.
