Big Tires?

Hi all!

Just had a question for you. I want big beefy tires for my brushless e-maxx. People keep trying to disuade me telling me they put too much stress on your truck. So what's the scoop? Can I run large tires? I don't want to run Jumbo Kongs (thought, I DID want to) but something larger then stock would be nice.

So what's the deal? Are large tires really as taboo as they seem? What mods would I need to get the most out of large tires?

I've built my truck to be a bashing beast and it just seems to me, from a strictly physics standpoint, that large tires would bash better then tiny tires. (more rubber to absorb impact, raises the CoG to give you more shock travel, etc)

Here is a list of what I have so far if it helps with what my options are

FLM Chassis, Hybrid Bulks, Shocktowers
HB Lightning Diffs
FLM Aluminum Half-Tranny w/ G-maxx Singlespeed conversion
RC-Monster Hardened Steel Idler
UE Supermaxx Shocks x8
Flextec Titanium A-arms
UE 6mm CVDs
Neu 1515 w/ Quark 125b ESC
(not sure on batteries yet, will probably do LiPo)
GA Metric Blue screws
Acer Racing Ceramic bearings
GA 3mm Titanium Skids

Knuckles I will be buying Integy Aluminum ones (Can't find Widetrac)

Thanks!
