VXL Rusty w/Proline 30 Series? - 12.20.2008, 08:53 PM

I want to use Proline 30 series rims and tires on my e-rusty, but as most of you know the rusty has back hexes up front instead of the stationary spindles that the Jato and nitro rustler use, the 30 series is only compatible with the Jato, Nitro rusty, and nitro pede. So my question is, could i just get 2 sets of rear jato rims and put a rear pair on the front of the rusty or would they be the wrong offset?

I run 2 sets of rear Jato Anacondas on my rustler, the offset will be "off" (not equal front and back, rear will stick out more..its not that bad but they are off unless you get the FLM extended front aarms. This company is making foams in offset for them http://www.jacoracing.net/newitems_foam_rubber.html

Ok, that is helpful for sure. I really want some of those Jaco's for aspault, but i do see alot of offroad so i do need some 30's for that in Dirt Hawg tread. I could use some flm extended arms up front, they would also double as a wheely counter-weight.

The FLM front extended arms make it perfect for the 30 series:

Why not just switch the front over to the Nitro setup with the spindle. That's what I did on mine.

I did the same thing with my rustler. They are stronger then the setup the rustler uses. I sure don't miss all those bent king pins I use to have change out.
