Put a set on one of my slashs yesterday, 2s, 4600kv and these things HOOK UP! Put my siped stockers up front wich grab very well too and now it seems to be the perfect setup, takes a lot of throttle to get it to break loose on a corner, gives my bowties a bad look lol.
 
These are the only Gladiator tires I have heard of.

Yet another use for duct tape.

Did you have to trim the wheel wells? Tires look wider than the stockers.

Perfect for the outlaw class.
 
Dang, no wonder they hook up so well. Aggressive tread + width=Awesome traction.
 
No I didnt have to trim the body, I just bought it a couple weeks ago, finished the painting on it and slapped it on, no rubbing at all. they are wider than the stockers bu they dont stick out.
 
How did you mount the tires on the rims? was the inside bead stretched to fit or did you have to cut it?
