Looking good! It needs a set of my aluminum shock collars. I would be happy to donate a set.

Those aluminum shock collars are certainly no less than sweet. But the white ones go very well with the white spring cups and few other white bits.

With that said, do you sell the aluminum shock collars? I wouldn't mind having a set or two.

I’d like to contribute to the build with both front and rear wheels and tires. I have all new wheels and tires to choose from and I’m hoping we could all together figure out which ones to go with.

I did feel the look of the car lent itself well to either color but white is also probably a safer choice to play nice with however the body is painted.
Just incase this front tire selection doesn’t cut it I also have very nice used near new looking 4 rib fronts from AE, Losi, and Proline. :D

Crickets. I’d say whatever you have multiples of, or you value the least yet still would look cool is perfect :mrgreen:

I vote for whichever tires have the most aggressive spike tread.
Frankensteined RC10T3 / Franky Jr RC10GT-e (x2) / A+ stamp / Toy Story RC / Graphite replica / B1.5 BFG 5LTi / Clonewald / Hyper Hornet

Ok so white wheels is a lock.
And we’ve got one request for the most aggressive spikes.
What do we think about the Proline holeshots in the rear and possibly the proline 4wd holeshots for the front ?
Yes a bit out of the norm but I think it’ll make a good looking package. Admittedly I’m more into a 2wd buggy sporting ribbed fronts but some cars just look more menacing with spikes on all four corners.

I just did a buggy with full spikes all around. It is definitely more imposing than pins and ribs.
