Hi,
Well yes the bigger the tyre and the heavier the tyre the more of a affect it will have on handeling and speed. I would have thought you would be best off with gig joes they are very light for a big tyre and the rims are proven to last and i do have a set on my MGT.

All the best

I sold my Imex[es] for the reasons you stated.... Get the Joes.

I like my swamp dawgs. I cut the little blocks out and lightened them up a little. my MT2 still runs good w/ them and the RPM Titans on it. I didn't notice much difference, except that they hook up MUCH better than the stock tires and they will help it go over almost anything. They are the best IMHO.

Well, some guy had the imex tires, and he tried them on his TNX for me, and he said it baerly got into the secong gear. seeing i want bigger tires i was thinking of going with the big joes then...but im not sure

Imex tires-the jumbo size imo are too heavy and didn't have good side grip(claw dogs).
The Big Joes seem lighter(haven't weighed either) and with a slight gear down on my T Maxx hooked up really well(2.5 motor). Another cool thing a friend of mine noticed is that they don't balloon up either.
The Imex Trail Dog tread is kinda similar, and a tire I'd like to try. I geared down four teeth on my spur to keep the r's up. If ya can do that I'd go for it(for bash, not race).
I think they would look killer on your TNX.
