    I would stick with either the stock ones or the Epic/Switch combo.
    You gotta love the scale looks of both.

    Just mounted the Switch tires on Tamiya CR-01 Beadlocks after having trouble with the Epics , tires pulled out on high speed passes or doing donuts . With the CR-01 wheels everything is fine and the stance is perfect ,front and rear. Not to mention ,they are a lot cheaper .

    From what iv read on here and other forums the epics sucks. Anything over 2s lipo and the bead always pops out.


    Also heres a pic of a slash with proline badllands.

    Are the badlands a direct fit on the stock rims, or do they need bigger rims?

    They will not fit stock rims, you will need a set of 2.2 rims. I beleve stock slash rims are 2.2 out side and 30 series inside. But if you where to get some proline 8 shooter beadlocks 2.2 they would look realllly nice!
