I just got some new 2.8" Talonz tires for my electric Rustler (I already have a set of 4, but the rears are about a half millimeter away from perfect baldness) and I think I'm going to order some new rims for them rather than take my old tires off (I'll just stick chains on them and keep them as permanent snow tires). I really like the idea of a wide conversion, but I'm not sure if it's worth it or not.
Should I buy just the regular rear Rustler/Stampede rims? Or should I buy the rear Jato rims and do a wide conversion on the front of my Rustler?

Thanks,
Brijar!!!
