New custom made styrene winch bumper + 3racing winch in place. Bumper is mounted to chassis for strength but i will not be connecting the winch to work...its just for looks.

They are surely much more scale than the stock rims and i got a 5th one for the spare. You can also find steel landrover wheels but bloody expensive. On mine they fit perfect with no rubbing but lost some ground clearance...tires are some 8mm smaller than the flat irons but i didnt mind.

RE: My SCX10
Still using the landrover wheels but they're no good for the hard stuff. Did tests with both sets on rocks and with the landrover wheels i was getting stuck more often... a combination of less grip and smaller tyres...flatirons work better. Plus on the beadlock wheels i added some weight which seems to have helped as well...added 60g on each wheel. I might try and find some new tyres to glue on the landrover rims since i still prefer those for looks. Yesterday got them dirty in a mini mud pool in the garden
thanks for the feedback guys
