Rusty wheels are 2.2

That is the store that sells the zippy and flightmax. Very good lipos =)

I agree. But, if I crash something then I want it to be a 250 over cost of parts. Also, if one is harder, and I get used to that, then the 600 will be that much easier to catch on to.

I have never driven either. I would look at Team Associated, Traxxas, Ofna, Jammin, HPI, Losi, etc.

Thank you for watching! =)

how come traxxas says they’re 2.8 inch then?
(Report comment)
The jato uses 2.8 as well. I use 2.2 rims on them. They are the same size. The 2.8 tires are the same height and width as the 2.2.
If you buy a 2.2 it will fit.

Why is the HPI Blitz never talked about when SC trucks come up? Are they just crap or are they being neglected for no apparent reason. Going by the quality of the Savages and the Hellfire that I own I would be surprised if they were crap. I have seen you tube vids and they look OK.

HPI makes some great kits and they have their duds. All RC companies, and any company for that matter, has it. Not everything from HPI, to include the over 25 Savages, are a bed of roses.l And that is any company.
Why are they not mentioned? When you released a 2wd truck when the rest of the industry is releasing 4wd trucks….
