  1. Bashing
I Was Wondering What Tires Is The Best For Bashing. I Was Kinda Leaning Tward Zombie Maxx. What Do You Guys All Run
 
Stock tires rock for bashing. Just dremel 2 slits in every tread bar and you'll be good to go.
 
which way are u talking about take each long tred bar and make it three treds insted how big of slit
 
yea, just 2 cuts per bar, leaving about 1/4 of an inch on each end of each bar before the cuts.
 
This is how I did mine. I used a Dremel tool and a fiber cut off disc.

I got bored and had a Dremel in my hands..couple that with insomnia and that's what ya get! lol.
 
Thank you. Personally, I'm not completely happy with them, because I miffed up the first time I ever cut them. I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing and instead of cutting out 2 tread bars end to end, I alternated each side, leaving a pattern like this

What I was going for should have looked like this...

IMO the best bashing tire were the Losi Zombie max's and proline mulchers.
 
I run Proline Bowties. Great all around tire for grass and street running (what I do around my neighborhood) but I think that a more aggressive version of the talons would do better for mud or gravel (I use talons on that kind of surface now but the treads are too shallow, even new).
