RE: Good tires for VXL
The Masher 2k's are good all-terrain tires. On the street w/ my Stampede VXL I can pop wheelies on command even at high speed with these tires. With the talons I couldn't do that. I've heard that the Moabs are also good tires but I would recommend the Masher 2k's since I know how good they are. I run on dirt all the time too and they seem like good tires for that also. Here's a pic of my truck w/ the mashers.

mashers and moabs don't have much business on a track
if you're running a track you probably need something like bowties, holeshots, taper pins or a more race type tire rather than an all terrain type tire

MASHER 2KS!!!! i have them on my vxl pede, and they are IMO the best freaking tires for a vxl pede, no gearing changing or anything, plenty o' torque! they are all-terrain and give great traction, you can do a hairpin turn and come out of it on all 4 wheels, sometimes 2 but they are awesome! Get the masher 2ks and you wont be disappointed! Here is my vxl pede with masher 2ks and rpm bullies, just like VXL BURRITOS, cuz i suggested them to him lol.
