Those Trenchers might be too much weight if you have them on the front too. I would suggest a lipo. It will make a tremendous difference in power. and who doesn't want more power.

You could always try to strap a little weight on the back with some zip ties or tape to make it ride a little lower also if you have any spacers in the shocks on the rear take those out and move them to the front. Make the front sit high and the rear sit low.

My rustler was never able to wheelie on nimh and 18/86 gearing, Up until I got a 2s 30c LiPo. Now it's just wheelies on demand. I have 2.8 trenchers in the rear.
