nope,,,, I tried it before and I hated it,,,, maybe for bashing and doing speed runs,, but for the track those wheels are a bad choice

any other options that will work? I am looking for something in the MLST size range, not for serious racing.

diffs and strain I understand and can cope with, it's the fitment that bothers me. I am a considerable distance from any sort of Hobby Shop so my purchases will have to be on-line and I don't want to buy things that won't fit.

...so will the Losi MLST Claw tires fit onto the RC18MT wheels? I considered the RC18MT tires and wheels but don't like that tread pattern, I really want the Claw tires but need a rim that is compatible.

ust get the mini inferno ST wheels. they arent as big as the mini lst.. but they are bigger than the rc18 monster wheels..

and it will still affect the driveablility of the car..

why not just use the mini inferno buggy wheels..
