Default RE: Shockwave Wheels

Well the main reason I'm looking for new wheels is I like to play in the abandon gravel pits near my house, but after the first attempt at running the Shockwave out there, I figured out real quick that little rocks like to get stuck in the wheels and lock them up. I had to pick rocks out of the wheel spokes about 10 times in my one (and only) run in the pit. I was looking to get some dish wheels and alternate set of tires of alleviate this issue.

WTB a good open track to practice on in the Memphis, TN area :P

I would also like to note that I'm not a huge fan of the "wheel is wider than the tire" look of the stretched out dirt hawgs on the HPI Racing 2.2" Wheels. I guess I'll keep browsing around hobby sites to see if I can find some nice width dish wheels with 12mm hex.
