Tyres and servo

[Jared wagner]

I run proline 3.8 badlands and love them. Alot easier on the drive train, and I never have to worry about the truck wanting to wheely all the time. It doesn't backflip as easy though. I also ran the shockwaves and liked them to but I prefer more traction.

It seems to work fine for me, you will very rarely if ever rub since it has to be pretty much bottomed out and turned fully at the same time...

So you use the longer team associated ones?

How are the badlands working out? did you go with the newer MX38 Badlands or the older smaller original ones? Have a mt410 on the way and was planning on getting them.

Sorry for the late reply geez, yer the newer Badlands are good but felt I needed extra height for the truck so I run Proline Shockwaves now it gives the truck abit more height and more landing surface. I did buy the Proline Trencher 40 serise 3.8 but their way too big for the MT so I’ll keep them for the Kraton when it finally gets to the UK? If ever!!

The newer Badlands are the MX38's that are 6.91"(176mm) compared to the old ones that are 5.85"(149mm). The Shockwaves are 6"(152mm). I'm leaning towards the Shockwaves as a happy medium at this point, but still researching. Thanks for the feedback.
