Big Joes fit on the Revo with any of the 40 series rims.

From what I have heard is that the Big Joes, or any other "offset" wheel will upset the handling of the REVO. It makes cornering a lot worse and it tends to flip a lot from what I have read. Ramtech, did you find this to be true on your REVO or is that picture just for advertisment and you did not run it that way?
 
That is my show Revo. I never ran it, so I'm not sure. I've sold a few to Revo owners, and they seemed to like them for bashing.

As far as Racing, alot of people use 40 series and Bow Ties. Most of the guys at my local track uyse them, and win alot of races. A few use my rims, just for the unbreakable feature.

I heard people say that those tires are only for show, is that right or are they good off-road tires ???

read above, I asked him the same question.
 
I use Big Joes on my Savage for everyday bashing. They work great in loose dirt in my construction site. But thats on a Savage. I'm sure the Revo would do the same for bashing. As always, it depends on what you like to do with it. My Savage is for hill climbing, jumping, crashing and general roughing around with my kids. If thats what you are doing, then the Big Joes are great.

Racing is a whole different story.
