RE: Stupid tires!
LOL , yep you REALLY need to prep the wheels before you glue them with the JATO 3.3 , use thin CA as stated above .
This is a pretty common occurence with the stock tires , though I have blown some after market tires before too .

RE: Stupid tires!
yeah....... i sent Traxxas an email complaining about it and they said they would send me new tires and rims .....but im going to use some CA like u guys say........ also i think im going be making a custom wheelie bar that will only allow the front tires off the gound about 1/2 inch so i can just open it up and see its full power!!!!!!!! ill make on video once i get the new tires
