Can you post a link to where everyone can get the single speed tranny and a 13 tooth clutch bell so no one have to ask all the time.

Those are Rock Crawler tires, right?
Are'nt the side walls much more flexable (softer) than the regular monster truck tires?

Yes they are, they have M3 and M2 these I got are the M2 and I believe the even softer one's are the M3.

that's going to look pretty cool. I thought about doing that to my cane. but with the amount of money it would cost me to do this, why not just buy a monsoon, so thats what i did. now i have a cane and a truggy for almost the same price to put 2.2 tires on my cane. just my opinon.

The four rim's which are reusable, no gluing on them what so ever, will cost you $42.80 shipping and all, the tires will cost you which I got cheaper then anyone ells can sell them for, I got them off of ebay for $11.29 for 2, so a set of four, shipping and all would cost you $28.08 for a tottle of $70.88, which isnt that all bad of a deal, when you have rims that you can just take the tire off without having to glue them on and change them to another kind in no time. These are the rims im waiting for, I fell in love with them the first time I seen them.

Hey Macanan....
Thats a great Price for all that stuff!
Ive had my eyes on those rims n tires for a while now. Only reason i havent got them yet is cuz I'm not sure the Bead Lock will hold.
Rock Crawlers go SLOW and My Volcano goes Fast. Those tires are big, and they might come off at high speed, (no glue).
Lets us know how it works out, Mebbe post a video or some pics.
