Hello.

I searched around for the answer to this question, but I couldn't find it easily, so I'm posing it here in its own thread:

Does anyone out there run 1/8 truggy wheels and tires on a 1/8 buggy? Clearly, that would violate competition rules, but, if you are only bashing your buggy, or just experimenting, it seems like MT-sized wheels and tires could offer improved traction. That extra traction would be especially beneficial if your buggy is running 6S lipo batteries and a big, truggy- or MT-sized motor, such as the New 1515.

If anyone has done this, I'd like to hear your comments on how well it worked, and I'd love to see photos.

Thank you for your attention.

Michael
