CRT.5 and 2.2 and/or 2.8 truck wheels and tires???? - 08.08.2009, 11:08 AM

Have been running my brushless crt.5 for a while and the stock tires are shot. I know alot of people run 2.2 truck wheels and tires, but do you need the fronts of rears??? Or do you need both? I know the stock .5 wheels dont have a different offset for rear or front. Also, would these 2.8 wheels and tires work on the crt.5?? They're 30 series prolines for rustlers and stuff... http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...-Electric-Rear

I just would like to know if i can run rears on all 4 corners of my .5 or should i run fronts? Thanks in advance!

You slingshot are traxxas wheel i suppose??
And you say it's front, this front of the electric stampede/rusty?

Thank you!

Your crt.5 is realy sweet Magman, i'll recieve my rcm extended frame next week and put my motor and MMM on it, with thee 5s lipo and post you some pics.
I'll not have my extended body yet (don't know which one to take between the proline jato, associated T4 or Losi xxx-t). So i'll post pics with stock body on.
