even though i have checked my wheel nuts very frequently, istill have some stripped wheels . i have heard hotbody wheels are good especially for the price. i have found some xtm aluminum wheels that a real good price but have been told that wieght and keeping tires glued with aluminum rims can be a challenge. finally maximizer beadlocks look pretty cool but at almost 30 bucks a pair not so enticing. any suggestion would be great i dont want to keep gluing tires and stripping hubs also has anyone tried hotbodies padlock tires ,i dont want a lot of sidewall flex so i can get a drifting effect.

how bout hpi's Q6 wheels? ive never tryed them, but they are supposed to have a stronger hex hubs.

My favorites are RPM Titan Wheels,or the new RPM Spider wheel!! These are the strongest and best wheels i'v ever driven! And if you want good tires then take the Hotbodies Death Grip they are not so weak and are good to handle

They look sweet!
How big are they compared to say, the Hotbodies 7.7" badboys, or proline 40 Big Joes?

Rockzilla

I only drive wheels and tires that are so big like the stock wheels,tires combo. So my wheel,tire combo above is not that big as big joe 40 or 7.7 Badboys Big wheels and tires are damaging the drivetrain and other parts,i like more the parts which have a long lifetime.

Yea I know...

But a little extra size doesnt hurt

Yes your right,thats why i bought me UFO Wheels with PSYCHO Tires these wheels are really big,but for me to big for bashing or stuff like that! But they look great

Funny thing is, i find my truck breaks ALOT ess when i am using my UFO wheels and Dozer tires.
the stock tires are small and so the arms end up making to much contact and taking too much impact.
whereas the Dozers take the impact and theres less damage to the arms and suspension etc.

Well thats what i've found anyway.

i just got my tower package today and the padlocks came with. i havent driven with them yet cause i spent the last 4 hours putting all my stuff in[8D]. they are some mean looking tires, and i got the monster gt wheels which adds to the agression[>:]. the tires wont grip near as much as the stock ones but will spin giving you more rpmsto the road. i got them so when i am off road whipping around in the dirt and can throw a long rooster tail. and because they look so mean. did i say that already?

Wizz Kid

here they are

Are you still using the stock hex wheel hubs? If you look at yours and the corners are rounded then you will continue to strip wheels. My friend and I upgraded and haven't had any issues since.

i recently striped a wheel out because i lost a wheel nut and didnt notice it was gone... but anyways i did a quick fix on it cuz im so poor at the moment and cant buy new wheels. i took the hex off and got some thin cloth and ca glue. i cleaned out the hub and then put a small peice of cloth around the hex and pushed it into place then cut the extra off and then i put super glue in the gaps and used this glue accerlater and it dried instanly... i put it back on the truck and 10 min later was out bashing again... i have run atleast 10 tanks since then and it hasnt broken yet but it is a little unbalanced...

i have associated mgt tires & wheels & i think they are great all around tires.They are slightly larger & wider than stock but much stiffer sidewalls so no balloning at speed.I did put the robinson steel gears on because i stripped the stock spur but have had no problems since..

Wizz Kid

well they dont look round to me they fit real snug ontho the hex, sometimes taking the hex with it when i take them off.

what about aluminum wheels and the tire staying glued any problems

goaty

ive read the q6's wont strip the hub but will crack

Those MGT wheels look awesome on your truck! I think I'm going to pick up a set of those or the Pro-Line Weld Super Singles, they look just like the wheels on my Z71 (American Racing Mojaves)
