[RUSTYFAN99]

would bearings make my car faster? if it doues then could you tell me which one would be good? (NITRO RUSTLER)

check to see if you have bearings first. if you dont. there a good upgrade.

If you have the rustler before the 2.5 version, chances are you dont have bearings, unless of course, you replaced the bushings with bearings. I believe duratrax sells a kit (through towerhobbies), and yes, the duratrax bearings are cheap, but i havent had any problems with them, even though i hate the duratrax car line-up.

I'm the same way as .21RC10GT. Not real crazy about the Duratrax cars themselves, but I've used their bearing kits in my RC10GT and HPI MT and have had no problems with them.

I have used Blue Star bearings in the past. They are inexpensive and durable for your basher.

I once got a kit for my RC10GT, and more than 6 wheel bearings blew out in the first few tanks. Makes me not want to go back.

Well, when you drop a .30 into a 1/10th rig, what the hell did you expect? J/K!

boca bearings are a good choice also ,spendy but the green seals are a good reasonably priced choice
but like the guys stated earlier duratrax make a good bearing and there easy on the wallet ,and if not mistaken tower has a complete kit
but you should have bearings all around on the new 2.5 rustler mine does
