Default Stock Claw tires

What is the outer diameter and width of the stock LST Claw tire? I'm trying to compare it to the IMEX K-Rock tires and I don't have it with me right now. Thanks.

Nevermind. Has anyone seen these pics of the King Pins mounted on the Maximizers? They look great!

Not that you asked, but Big Joes are about the same diameter 6.75", but 1/2" wider (And considerably lighter) than stock..

Yea, but I won't be able to use the Maximizer beadlocks with the Big Joes, and I really hate gluing tires!!

I'll weigh the tires when I get home and post a comparison of the weights. I have a lot of different tires in stock, so it should be easy.

Good point...They are 40 series.

For some reason, I just can't bring myself to like colored plastic on a rim. The gunmetal ones are alright, I guess, but I prefer chrome or a nice bright painted color (Even if the finish doesn't last that long).

There is a review on this board (don't remember which area of the forum) with a scathing review of those wheels. Matt, when you get a chance, please give us your take on them. One quote I remember from the review is something like: how is it easier to to turn 20 screws 1000 times than glueing? Like I said, it was most disfavorable.

I have 3 piece (Each side plus a plastic spacer) dish wheels on my RC10T. There are 4 screws in each of those and I just changed rear tires last week. It is a bit of a pain...and they are so easy to strip. I can't imagine 20 screws per wheel!!! But, to each his own.

That review was for the Pro-Line beadlocks, not the Maximizers. I'll post a review on them tomorrow.
