Todays Bashing Results - NitroNoob - 10-09-2004

Had a pretty good bashing session today, albeit I was by myself, lol.

Had a few issues with a tree and bent my front aluminum skid plate all the way up into the front of my truck. Also had a problem with the remains of a pole I found under some leaves, we I didnt really find it, my truck did. Now my rear left tire is all bent outta whack.

I also managed to lose all the screws that held my rollcage on. Dont know how this happen, I used lock tight on the screws when I installed the cage.

Hopefully one of these days I will meet up with you all.

Actually I just went to the park across the street from my house. There are a few softball fields and a long parking lot. It just rained out here by me yesterday so there was a bit of mud. Smile

Im am just north of Chicago in the burbs.

Figured out why that rear wheel is off set. I cracked the inner part of the wheel where the wheel nut goes. The whole thing is messed up so I had to put the stock wheels back on today.

those look like hotbodies wheels. Given that they broke, I would be willing to bet that they are.

Any oversize wheels broke so far for me. Velocity 40 series...stripped. Then, I got Outback with SC Adpater with Big Joes, one of the wheel was broken in the center. I replaced that one and so far it has been ok. I will see how long they will last. What other wheels/tires do you run?

Well, since I've only been doing this for a few months now, those were the first add-on wheels and tires I have bought. I am currently running the stock wheels and tires for my Savage. I did pickup a set of the HPI Q6 wheels (blk), but I still need to decide which tires I want to run on them.

I was thinking of getting some on-road tires since most of my time is spent in a parking lot. Some along the lines of these tires:

Q6 looks good. I have seen Q6 with Dirt Bonz. It looks really really nice. However, since you run on parking lot a lot, I wouldn't go with Dirt Bonz. It is gonna chew up everything in no time. What about just stock tires...it looks good too. What about Zombie? Any other thoughts?


Todays Bashing Results - DO-U-MAXX - 10-11-2004

zombies would work out great with those Q6 rims. Awesome traction on any surface.

Your talking about Zombie Maxx tires, right? Arent those off-road tires though. I am looking to put something more along the lines of a street tire on the Q6 wheels. I have the stock wheels and tires along with a set of UFO wheels with Mayhem tires on them for doing off-road stuff.
