I bought some wheels & tires ,however I wanted to go back with my aluminum wheels for my Mgt. ,but
the new black style wheels look good too ,so I am undecided now on which one to use ,so I am posting up a
poll to see what my Fellow RCer's would use!..:hehe:...:cool:

Here is a vid of the wheels ,the vid is also being polled on Y-tube ,but polls will be counted here as well ,
so can post here too to be counted ,just pick an say Black or Aluminum!...:thumbs-up:

Black. Or get black aluminum annodize, and shave off the edges so you have silver metal outliine, similar to aftermarket truck wheels.
 
I've said it before: I typically like black wheels on 1:1, but chrome/aluminum on rc. I just find that black on our miniature rc gets lost, whereas a silver base color pops with black tires.

So true. When you have black wheels, the details basically disappear. Details like anodized wheel nuts and machining after anodize help a lot though.

Those BLACK wheels look SWEET!!! They all do really. I have extra Tmaxx wheels if you would like the tires again. Not dry rotted or nothing🤔🤔 they just need to be cleaned...👍👍

They are looking very shinny. They look awesome good job. That is a different pattern interesting. I always set the tire with that V point facing forward. As it would dig into the dirt or sand. Either way sweet set up bud like the new tires aslo👍

I run mine backwards. I feel it grabs more shoving in and compacting vs pinching and tossing out the dirt.
