Rims

What are some good offset rims to use for racing on track. currently my truck just wants to roll over in the corners and was hoping some good offset rims would help me out. or any other things i could do to get the lower center of gravity down

You can switch the type of shocks you run.That will lower the whole truck. I know itegy makes some wheel extenders. They will widen the stance of the truck by about 1 1/2". Just a couple of ideas to throw at ya. Joe

one thing I have done at the track is to use zip tyes through the lower a arms to the shock tower. pull it tight to acheive the ride height you desire. I use the zip tyes idea only at the track so that after I raced around the track I could simply cut the zip tyes and go bashing...

Somthing else that helped my handleing was running one Integy MSR8 on each wheel so a total of four shocks this gave me a soft dampening effect around the turns.

Rims I loved were the Axial beedlock with Losi tires the ones that came on the LST2 RTR.great drifting tire.

Hope this helps.....................CRE

the maximizers seem to be fairly cheap at amain at the moment. They are a nice rim but depending on what tyres you are running the tyres can pull out on big bad landings. I have hammered my rims and they only have a few battle scars, nothing serious.

I believe that the LCG tvp's will only lower the cog and not lower the truck. I think I read it on here.

yes you are right apache the LCG tvps do only lower your COG but it would still help....wouldnt it??

If you are thinking maximizers get the 17mm hex ones. On this page they list the tyres you need to use the included shims with as well. http://www.maximizerproducts.com/maxstore/stores/1/1_2_offset_Black_Beadlock_Sys_P181C35.cfm
