I don't have the RC-M chassis but I have run 1/10 truck tires, specifically Slash tires. Depending on the gearing and terrain yes the MM gets a bit warmer than I'd like but my Medusa has always been cool. When I had it geared for 39-40MPH and running through grass on a 85-90* day I was in the high 160* range on the MM. Dropped the gearing down and no more problems. I don't think that much more than 33-35MPH is needed with these.
