Default Pics of Jato with bigger tires.

I just want to see pictures of the Jato with bigger tires like the Moabs, Geolanders, masher 2000. Seems like this is the key to a great handling off road Jato. I have a set of bigger tires on mine and love the way it handles off road. These are only temporary till I figure out what tires I want to get. Im leaning twards the Yokohamas.

Games,
You dont think the Moabs are too big? Did you do anything to the gearing or will it still wheelie?

Also do you have pics of the front and rear?

no dude their just fine, no the gears are stock. and it's still hard to keep the front end down. i did buy another wheelie bar and heated it up and bend it down for when i don't want to wheelie. if you like i can show a pic

I didnt think power was going to be a problem. I was just thinking the size of the tires would look goofy. The moabs are the biggest of the tires mentioned. The ones I have on are 4.5" so I guess another .5" would not matter.I would like to see some front and rear pics and the wheelie bar.

I see where you have your temp guage. This may be a better place to put it so it does not get damaged. I put it on the rear shock tower out of the way.

i didn't think of that, think i'm going to move mine. i never stop learnig. good one twomanytoys, as for the wheelie bar, i heated it up with a ligter to bend it. i would not make it touch the ground. that will let the shocks do there job. with that bar the front end only comes up about 2 inches
