What are you finding is the best tire to use? My favorite place is the skate park. When the kids are all gone, it's a great place to stunt. It's got a slick lacquer over the flat areas and flat texture not unlike an asphalt tennis court for the ramps, pipes, and bowls.
I need to buy aluminum front axle cups, I already have the rears, but I'm limited to RWD until I beef up the front axles.
I'm gluing the tires to the wheels, and I'm not losing tires, but I'm chewing up the hard tread compound tires pretty quick and I've even flatspotted a few.
If nothing else, I'll just experiment. My setup is FOOGLY right now. It's not near as impressive as some of the XMODS I've seen but for now I'm pretty happy with it.
