the buggy dirt hawgs are too narrow for summit rims, unless you are really good at glueing.....
the problem with pre-glued, is the tires are not strapped... and you really must strap them in order to not balloon like crazy......

Maybe that's my prob.. I did strap these tires n it works well, but I don't like it cuz it throws it off balance. Jumbo what wheel tire combo do u use?

I've been considering getting pre-mounted or do it myself. I strapped a full set of Pro-Lines Bad Lands for my 1/8. Even at 6S, no ballooning. I'd like to do the same for my MERV. The Titus 2.2" wheels have been hard to find lately. Any pros / cons between Dirt Hawgs & Road Rage?
