[alex banyard]

hi I wood like to put monster truck wheels on my xtm xt2 (it has a hiper 21 engine) to create a truggy/buggy look to it



wood it work or will it break the car

It won't hurt a thing. It's going to gear you buggy a little higher and increase top speed (maybe). You're going to lose some low range power. You might end up buying a new clutch bell with a few less teeth to get your low end back to where you want it.

Is there a particular wheel you're considering? You'll probably have to add hub extensions and/or deep dish wheels to prevent rubbing issues with the wider tires, depending on what you get.

Yep, you are correct. I have the XST and the arms are longer than his XT2 so he will probably need something to add for wheel and tire clearance.
