Wider rear tires
Sorry, no pictures today, maybe tomorrow though. Im curious, do they make larger diameter and wider tires/wheels for the xmods? I have a supra and i thought that the tires just dont stick out enough in the back. I just fliped the wheels inside out and they stick out much better. Doesnt seem to change the handling much but it looks alot better.
I tried to do the same to the front as well but the wider stance hits the wheel wells and i dont want to trim them,, so for now, just the back wheels are wider

Try getting a set of wide offset wheels and tires for a Mini-Z and then go to microracers24.com and get a set of Xmod wheel adapters from Sven. I'm waiting on my Mclaren wheels and tires to come in, but I already have the adapters. Installation should be a snap. Just by adding the adapters to the Mini-Z wheels (even if the wheels are the standard "narrow" wheels), you'll add 1.5mm of offset to your Xmod's track. Add to that the 3mm offset for the "wide" Mini-Z wheels, and you've got at least 4.5mm, if not more, of added track width. Wide enough to fill any wheel well.

Reversing wheels is an old trick. 
BTW they're not wider, they have a more offset;
since the width of the tire is the same as usual.

Sporttracguy I will send you the cash for it if you will send me the Yellow motor... I am getting more into these pinions (Yellow&Red) and believe they actually help the car more than the other ones...
