More tires ahhh!

ok so metalhead matt was right about the proline Big Joes and how they are unstable. so I've had these tires for a few hours and i do like them, when they are off road, but since i am in a subdivision i have to deal with A LOT of different types of terrain. so I'm lookin into new tires for i am looking into prolines MOAB or their Masher tires. does anyone have any experience with these 2 tires, i know that the MOAB has a larger diameter which makes me worry that they'll be unstable at higher speeds, proline says that the masher tires are great for suburban areas. i can't decide which ones? if they're are any other good all terrain monster truck tires let me know about those too! thanks guys

3.2 Mashers on Rpm wheels. Mashers rock. You may wanna think about picking up some street tires in the future.

I agree 100%, Badlands wouldnt be bad either but if your going to go on the street, dirt, and grass, mashers would be the way to go.

ight thanks guys, and yeah i def plan on getting street tires

Stock t-maxx chevrons are a good all terrain tire when street is part of that terrain. Not too much side bite, so limits traction roll overs on pavement. Does better on grass, but can be a bit squirrelly on dirt.

A set of the 3.8's that are lower profile may be even better for your needs.

I run these currently on my revo since it spends a lot of time on concrete and grass:

More sidewall than the 3.8's, so a bit more forgiving off the jumps, but less forgiving at speed.

yeah I've run the stock chevrons on my emaxx bl, but I've got blacktop not concrete so i have next to no traction and all the tires do is spin

Proline Mashers hands down. BUT spend some extra dough and put in a good foam. Prolines white foam blows monkeys. The stock Proline white foam will be dead long before the tires wear out. Ofna makes a good set of MT size foams that are molded.
Try balancing the Big Joes with some modeling clay. You will be amazed at the difference.

I have the Moab XL's on the Proline 40 series bead lock wheels and they work great for all around bashing on my E Maxx....
