ill have to agree that badlands are your best choice for grass and concrete. they hold up very well to abrasive surfaces

I had my maximizers on my truck for three days before I threw them in the garbage kept breaking the bead

+1, me either. hold up better than glue on 5s flux

for thinner bead tire there a shim you have put in there that comes with the wheels

 

[MARK.T]

What do you mean by a thiner bead? What tires have the thin beads? Wich don't

 

[Combuster]

usually most of the proline ones do I'm not really sure which ones don't. i heard some of the hpi ones don't need the ring
