need to loose weight

[Serum]

the revo tires aren't that heavy. but you should be able to shave off 3-4 oz.

can you shoot a pic of your maxx?

Last time I was there Proline had weights of all their tires on their website, useful info. Obviously you need to pair this up with lightweight rims. the lightest tires are the crimefighters in Mt siries (40s are heavy.) The Revo tires/rims are actually pretty good weightwise for all around tires.

Otherwise, replace any metal parts with plastic that you feel comforatble with. Lipos and a single motor also goes along way. (Edit:n/m, you have BL.) Other than that, you get into procedures whereby you start trimming away excess material.

What is your application and goal? If you're just a basher/"dog-fighter", put it on the scale and went "whoa! what a pig!" does the weight really matter? Chopping weight down can get really expensive, depending how deep you go. What's it worth to you?

I bash, but I was suprised to see it weighted so much. I was thinking if it was lighter maybe it wouldn't break as much.

It would be good to have good tires, and the lipos. Looks like those two things would really make a diff.

Here is the thread of pics I had uploaded. In the pics I had the chevron tires on becuase I use those for sand, but use 4 revo tires for all other terrain.

Would the tires shave 3 - 4 oz per tire?
