RE: rustler in the snow
You realize that a Rustler is like 6 inches tall right? and about 4 inches of that height is tire.
This would be like running his Jeep in 2.5 feet of snow. Can it do it? Sure, kinda...will it go very fast? No.
No matter what, if there's any accumulation of snow, you're going to want paddles on an RC, especially a 2wd.

Hello Kaptain.
How are the skis working out for you? Thank you for the business and I hope this winter brings a lot more fun!
BTW, currently testing out a new release for January that will make snow/sand even more fun!

RE: rustler in the snow
do you got a crappy pair of rear tires you no longer use, when I had my rustler I made my own snow tires, I took the tires and from the inside out took 1-1/4" sheetrock screws and screwed them into plastic drywall anchors on the outside of the tire...
looked a little dangerous I guess but it worked good. but i would say the snow was only about 2+ to about 3"
