Beadlocks

[BMRbrnSNRbrd]

Who makes a good set for the Savage? Can you use the stock tires? I hate gluing/removing tires on rcs so I'm thinking a nice set of beadlocks will set me up well. Thanks.

Check out the Maximizer beadlocks.

I have a set of these:

I haven't ran or mounted them yet but I love the looks and have heard they are strong. They are also light compared to the Pro-line and I believe the Axial beadlocks.

if you are going to run in snow with the max's leave the rock rings off. they cake up with snow and its a pain to get out.

i like mt 1/2" offset rims. handle nicely, and have stood up to running into a 8X8 fence post at full tilt.

There are many other company's that make bead locks as well like Axial but the maximizers seem to be the best. I run the same ones parker posted in his second like and love them. They are wrapped in a set of Losi Zombie-Maxx tires which the combo is great, I also have about 3 gallons of run time on them with very hard beating.

Thanks for the info guys.

Question, since running in snow was mentioned, are the Savages waterproof?

[Larsenracing]

They are not water proof but will take some. Best to get like Traxxas wp servos and use a balloon and wrap around the receiver and you would be good to go.

I have ran mine thru puddles 3-4" deep and in a bit of snow never had a problem. My bro did fry a servo once thought.
