Kewl great to know. I have a cobra venom 24 motor that i might put in it when it gets here. That should be able to handle those tire for now right?
I don't know. With a hotter motor, it will be an even higher load on motor. I wouldn't put the venom 24 in yet until you see if the 540 gets roasted.
The buggy wheels/tires are expensive on ebay:

You might do better to find another Grasshopper or Hornet rolling chassis just for the wheels. It might cost about the same as buying the wheels & tires separately.
That, or maybe go to the Classifieds and offer a trade for the correct ones.
