Yes I am aware of that, but i'm wondering if they weight the same. I can;t find any info anywhere on the weight.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

I would guess that they would be very close in weight. Cause one being smaller in oneway as the other set is smaller in the other way

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

You want the Trencher X tires for the Summit.  Unless you plan to do a lot of crawling and really want a narrower, taller tire.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

So what's better for bashing. taller or wider?

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

I like the wider tires for bashing.  Better stability, more shock absorption.  Just my personal preference.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

How about the stress on the drivline. Is it a lot?

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Any time you add weight, you're increasing the stress.

But as long as you keep the weight somewhere similar to the stock Summit tires, it should handle it just fine.

Put it this way, I haven't had any more issues running my Revo with Trencher X's than I was with the stock tires. If anything, I'm having fewer issues because I'm not traction rolling all the time like I was on the stock Talons.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Ok cool. i have the combo thats on the revo 3.3 for now. then i'm gonna get some diff ones eventually

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Yah these are actually going on my Savage Flux HP XL. Going with Axial 8 spoke black/chrome wheels jsut need to decide on which trenchers to go with.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

IMO for you xl i would get the wider ones. Whereas with my ERBE i would go with the taller ones

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Cool thanks for the help fellas. I'm going to go with the wider Trencher X tires.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Any suggestions on a pinion tooth change for my Summit? Since adding the Big Joe's and Cheyyenne wheels it seems like i've lost a little speed? Should I bump the pinion tooth up a little?

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

If you are mounting the tires on the Axial 8 Spokes, I think your only choice might be the original trenchers. The T X's are a Traxxas Bead tire. The Axial 8 Spokes are a 40 series wheel.

RE: Traxxas Summit
 

Ahh I think you are right about that. Dang I totally overlooked that. Looks like i'll be getting the beadlock wheels. Oh well might add the trencher 40 series on the Summit with the axial 8 spoke wheels.

RE: Traxxas Summit

Proline Trencher X tires on Desperado wheels are 55 grams heavier per tire/wheel than the stock Geodes. So thats a bit of weight when you add up all 4.
Stock Geodes: 330 gr
Trencher X on Desperado's: 385 gr
