Need new wheels and tires for maxx truck. -

I'm looking for all-terrain tires and wheels with 17mm hexes. I'll also need 17mm hex adapters. I'm looking for something a little ligher than the stock tires and i don't want the tires to be mostly rim.
If you guys have any sugestions, it'd help a lot! Thanks!

Badlands MT! Just make sure to clean the inside of the tire with rubbing alcohol and tape them, otherwise they get a bit crazy after 25MPH. For rims use Maximizer beadlocks and OFNA/HoBao 17mm hex adapters. Great combo, many of us are using the same thing on here

Badlands are the best all terrain tire I have found. I use maxximizer beadlocks, and balanced the whole assy. The duct tape on the inside of the tire is a must. Onne wrap with about 1" of overlap will do. I use the clear heavy duty 3m stuff, seemed a bit lighter than std grey duck tape, and still had all of the string stuff in it. Plus it was super sticky. This combo will be a bit heavier than a stock tire, but will last longer and perform better.
One more suggestion... Molded foams are a good investment as they last longer and work better than std forams. If you are using beadlocks they are not really necessary but I prefer to not have to change foams before the tire is worn out... |
