What exactly is the difference in width between the 2.5 maxx and the .15

Is it worth upgrading?Or jutst go with what ya have till it breaks.. if it breaks
 
The width difference is equal to the width difference that adding StableMaxx rims to your .15 would give you. It is about a half an inch a side.

You can upgrade to the wider a-arms, but remember that you will also need to think about some longer out axles (those that run from the diff case to the wheels). Yes, the stock sliders will work. But when you extend them and then put some power on, they may tend to get over torqued and twist out.
 
i would go with the RPM extended a-arms instead of the 2.5 stock a-arms just because of the lifetime warrenty. but the 2.5 a-arms have more adjustments.but, there is no point in replacing everything until u break everything, so go run into a tree, and buy my a-arms. lol. I think the difference between the .15 a-arms and 2.5 a-arms is like a total of a half a inch or somethin, i forget.

Happy to help.

If you add the RPM arms and a set of StableMaxx rims you gain an inch to a side and a super stable ride in the turns. Real tough to flip my T-Maxx in the turns with just the rims...adding the a-arms on top of the rims would make it damn near impossible.
