Somehow i knew you wouldnt really like it. What i would do (i doubt you will take this advice though) is buy the pede 4x4 wheels and tires, get a MT body that fits since the slash is longer than the pede. Just swap the tires/wheels and body depending on what ya wanna do and have the best of both worlds......a racer and a basher.


Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.

Dude, get some RPM revolver wide offset 2.2 wheels (needs to be wide to clear the steering knuckles) and some 2.2 MT tires (my mashers are 5inches tall), and you will have a very capable basher for the winter months. The stock slash tires are very small, and of course you will get hung up...

Or get some of the 12mm to 17mm hex adapters for running buggy wheels and run any number of the 17mm tires.

Yes, or that. FLM makes a great set that slide over your existing 12mm. Very, very simple. Plus Mike sells them in the store, so even better!

With a few small upgrades, you can have a very capable basher. No reason to sell it.

Went and took the Slash for a drive in the snow a few days ago and had better results.
