That's why my supermaxx is fully polished!

Why? Because I've always wanted one and , well, because I can!

As soon as my mis-fitting parts come back from FLM I'll work on reassembling it all! Maybe it will be finished before winter?!?!?!?!

plastic is more brittle when it freezing. Watch out with RPM rims.. I've seen them brake like a plastic spoon.

No 40 series, unfortunately.. Only maxx sized..

And yes, the 40 series are harder on your drivetrain from the impacts of jumps.

you guys think the Cen Genesis wheels is too big and too hard on the Hotbodies diff for the Maxx Trucks?..... I was thinking of gettin' this big babies.. but might just stick to the 40 series proline wheels...

Looking at their size, i don't think they will win any weight-watcher rewards..

For a shocktower, you need the 2 layers for sure. are you planning on using 4 or 8 shocks?
