Here is the thing. I am not sure if I want off road tires or street tires. I mostly run on the street/sidewalk and do some off roading in the field next to my house and in the back yard. Here is what I am thinking for my slash. Proline SCT street fighters, Proline badlands SCT, Duratrax six pack SCT, Duratrax speed treads or banditos SCT. I have the same tire options for the rustler but just in stadium truck size. I will look at Jconcepts too but they are more for racing/drag racing than bashing. Also I have a set of Duratrax lockup MT 2.8 C2 wheels/tires. Ran them on the slash and rustler. Since they are so big and heavy they cause alot of problems like stripped spur gears, rubbing on body and arms, burnt transmission cases, motor heat even when gearing down (lowest pinion I have is a 14) so I am thinking about selling them or keeping them just in case I do a monster truck build or get a monster truck. Like a arrma granite or convert my slash into a stampede. Those MT tires are still like new. Only ran outside on the sidewalk 4 times and in the grass 2 of those times. Have no water or anything in the wheel. Another question is would the off road tires hook up on the street/sidewalk? I seen a couple use the badlands and they hookup on the road.
I have the Traxxas anaconda wheels/tires on the slash and rustler. I like them but I want something new.
I am trying to stay away from stock Traxxas wheels/tires. I heard that all variations of the slash tires from Traxxas are not that good, have no traction and so stiff.
