Personally I'm keeping mine stock chassis. Mike's kit is really nice, but I agree that you can end up spending way more $$ trying to make it something its not. (IMO sorta like a Gmaxx vs a truggy, but everybody's got their thing)
I would like a more modest offset as well. Something that ends up like a 1/2 offset, or at least enough that the tires won't rub the body on a full turn.
would like to have the choices of the buggy tires (hell I put M2Ks on mine for bashing)
1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S
