Status: offline 		You can also buy HPI Super Nitro RS4 rims + rally tyres.
They are larger and will increase ride height. You can even put narrow off road 2.2 tyres on them which have a high sidewall to increase height even more

The HPI 3.0 engine is one of the most powerful. No need to change!

Unfortunately, there is not many people driving these things here, so we are just keep up with nitro. We don't have even a descent track.
