I finally got the new Baja's on Imex pluto's mounted. These bad boys made the Savy a full two inches wider over the stock wheels.

I have maximizer's about the same off set. The only thing i do not like is the lost of turning radius. Thinking on going to reg. offset maximizers. nice looking truck.

Oh... that sucks... I had to go with the maximizer x-75's to get clearance for my buggy shocks... Oh well, guess it doesn't matter so much to a basher.

As for your's smaxxin, it looks kind of funny... like mine. Almost like the tires are too small for the truck. I didn't think about it until after I bought them, installed them, checked for clearance, then took a step back... should be less likely to roll over though. I'm wondering how much extra stress it's going to put on the arms and bearings.
 
darn i was gonna get those maximizer beadlocks but now I'm thinking no that looks kinda funny, or not the way i want mine to look.

I thought it looked funny too but then I drove it, I love the way it handles. I never had much trouble with flipping but it pushed like a tank, now it turns a lot better under power. It squats a little more than before so there is added stress, good thing suspension parts are cheap because I'm taking it flying tomorrow :banana:

I have those as well... for my revo. I haven't run them much yet, but they will rub on the arms of the revo at full lock after grinding the little plastic bit off the steering stop.
