    Cool got new rims and tires!

    i was watching youtube videos over the weekend and saw a guy who had awesome tires on his truck ( it wasn't a slash) but the tires, i saw, i wanted, i had to have. after searching and research, i got them, rc4wd mud slingers (2.2) and rpm wide wheel base 2.2'' rims to fit them on, i wasn't going for anything other than they just look cool in my eyes. ill get a different body to run these tires with, but all i have at the moment is the slash body. also, got a new chassis and dyed it black.

    The front seem to be super wide. They look like TSL Boggers! I bet those would be great in the mud! What body do you want to get for your truck?

    i plan on getting a chevy blazer body and paint to look like my dads old 70 blazer that is long gone, and yea the front is wide, but the tires and rims, and body are all going to be my 2nd slash, im slowly building up from spare parts so when it comes time, ill figure out something with the width and stuff

    Those do look awesome. Do those RPM rims have the spline adapter instead of the hex adapter? I was looking at a set of RPM Revolvers for my truck because I like the old school look, but I was unsure about the spline adapter.
