These tires are pretty good. I can go through the grass easily and I have alot of traction in the street. The rear tires wear down not so quickly. They lasted 5 runs before the center if the tire got run down. The problem is the wheels. I stripped both hexes in 20 minutes. I would give these tires a 2/5.

With that I plan to get the tires off of the wheels and use a different set of wheels or getting a whole new set of wheels/tires. I am thinking about the badlands or trenchers from PL but it is 26 dollars more for a set. I would like the PLs since they are removable hexes so if they strip I can replace them or I can change the offset if I need too.

What do y'all think? Any new tire recommendations or any suggestions for removing the tire from the wheel?

I have these on the rear of my Arrma Raider XL (buggy in my pfp) and they've been great with a 3s brushless system. Although I'm not a super hard basher so they may not last as long for you but for me they've been great for most terrain

Yeah, I use Louise tires (they're branded Dtx in the States but called Louise elsewhere) and they're really cheap for what you get - a tire that can rival PL or Jconcepts for a fraction of the price. Unfortunately the wheels are buttery, so I make sure to check my wheel nuts every pack or even more often.

David, take a look at the P-L Gladiator. YouTube vids show them handling grass well. Got a set for grass running the Rustler and the MT10. Did a backyard test on the MT10 but haven't run them at speed yet. Did handle grass well in the back yard at 50% throttle. 'AC'
