I really like the wheels. they are really well balanced and look so much better than the dish rims. my buddy has the mamba, it is SO much better than the novak. I am going to build an 8th scale buggy with that lease the mamba ecs and hopefully run the new motor coming out this summer. I bought the novak before Castle Creations released the mambamax. wish I would have waited but the truck is fast enough when I am running the 8000 lipo. Just more reason to get the buggy :)
