How is it that you mount your Moab's? I could probably go search RCC for it, but I figured this was a chance to get some tech stuff on here.

Thanks,

Has anyone tried Swamp Dawgs on Washington rocks and wet muddy areas?

they suck, good in mud with really good wheel speed, but that is about it.

Dude · Apr 13, 2006

this tire works really really good, that is all.

I think for everything in washington the masher 2k's in some form of narrowed wheel and hacked is going to be the ticket. I have moabs and I haven't been to pleased with thier performance.

Dude · Apr 13, 2006

Wait until you see my cut Moabs, I'm not done yet. It is taking a long time but I think it will be well worth it.

What tires are you guys narrowing? Stampede Fronts or Rears? Or something else.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 20, 2006

I narrow what ever I buy that comes close to fitting unless I buy some bling touring car rims because they are already really narrow.

Why am I an idiot. I meant to say what wheels are you guys narrowing. Damn ME.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 20, 2006

I think it depends if your running wideners or not. I run widners but if I run pede rims they are the rears double narrowed. Makes them about 1" wide. Lateley I have been using more and more touring car rims because they are already really narrow to start with.

VMGontheRocks · Apr 20, 2006

I probably won't be running wideners. And is there any huge difference between the front and rear stampede wheels.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 20, 2006

Yes I think most fronts have round holes if I remember right and the rears have hexes.

VMGontheRocks · Apr 20, 2006

Ok. I will be ordering the rears.

you want fronts, they both take a 12mm hex, front are positive off set and the rears are negative off set. I have 4 chrome fronts if you want them, pm me and make a deal.

those are HPI's "spike wheel" for a nitro truck.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 20, 2006

If you want a wider stance use fronts if you want it narrow run rears. Only about 1/2" total difference between the 2 and the only big differance is which side you narrow unless your like me then they end up the same.

VMGontheRocks · Apr 21, 2006

I am so lost. Which ones make the track width the widest unnarrowed.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 21, 2006

fronts make it the widest I have a unarrowed set in front of me right now off my stampede.

ManiacMagoo · Apr 21, 2006

If you want it to be wider though I would go with something like these http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXCAN2&P=7. They make a decent width when you narrow them and even unarrowed and will make your truck alot more stable :redneck:.
