    Wheels look awesome! Was thinking about getting a set of those for my RC, as well. What tires are you running?

    I like my Michelins so I upgraded to LTX M/S2. I considered the 265/70 x 16 but settled on the stock size of 245/75. The alloys are 16 x 7.5 which is 1/2 inch wider than stock and they would accommodate the wider 265's nicely.
