I have the 4.6 rtr and i wanted to get the Xl tires. Would they fit on my 4.6? I know they are both 17mm hubs but on the Xl they have the extended axles so i was wondering if would need it ?

Just wondering, why exactly are you putting such big wheels on it? I realise you get more clearance but you'll probably lose some power, maybe change the gearing?

Team Losi Zombie Maxx, put them on some of the new RPM 17 mm hex wheels with the stablemaxx offset. You'll love them, trust me.
I am waiting on some funds for a set of these wheels myself.

They have other styles if that is not your cup of tea.
The Zombies are great on every surface, they last a while too.

The chrome is pretty durable, but it does chip. You can dye their regular chrome wheels.
The non chrome wheels are bit more flexible and more durable.
I used Rit dye from Walmart for these. RPM's website gives you instructions on how to dye their stuff.
I was going for a black chrome, turned out kinda burgundy...

BTW, the Vantage C.F. pipe is a POS. It totally killed the engine's performance.
