savage xl tires/rims

[geronimo]

Hey just trying to figure out what tires/rims to get for my xl, my stockers are about shot and i really don't want to buy another set of stock,i've not really spent alot of time on rims/tires,so i need some help.
i've got several sets of tires/rims for my 4.6, but they all look really small , when i put them on the xl, i'm flat out lost. so any help will be really apprecated. thanks

hpi goliaths and blast rims

tires look alright, but the rims are not quite what i'm looking for.

HPI Goliaths for sure. They are pretty much the same outer diameter size, but larger inner and they are wider, so they don't balloon really at all.

i like the tires, just not the spoke rims, will the goliath fit the stock xl rim.
the stock rims are pretty cool, but i hate the stock xl tires,side walls are to high and soft, thats a bad combo, cause's alot of my roll overs.

will the goliath fit the stock xl rim.

No, they are different.

How do those beadlocks hang with extreme bashing? I use them on my crawler, but I've heard the beadlocks don't hold up well with Savages. Tires come loose in extreme conditions. I have trouble enough keeping mine glued.

Just curious.

myself i haven't been able to run them yet (still waiting on my motor from robin) but for those who have had them said they work great with the rage rings.

belive me man they better work good, they are a PITA to mount the tires to, but from what people told me before i bought them is they are the best beadlock wheel out there.

Ok, so i got bored last nite and broke down my XL tires/rims.
I had an old set of ofna dominator rims so i tired them on the XL terra pins. the fit was perfect.
