i cut all my senton bodies so I can run 1/8 buggy tires. It's hard to find short course tires in 17 mm. I've tried almost all tires that will fit on a senton And 'Badlands are the only ones that I found it will make it and not come apart. So the Badlands are a must on this truck.badlands are 4.60inch,stock 6s dboots are 4.40inch.. if you ran to stock size tires I don't think you would have to trim body at all and I don't think you would have clearance. here's truck fully compressed suspension with tires tucked into wheelwells. My body post are at medium height so I could raise body if needed

Imo mx m2s are the the BEST buggy tire available right now.i cracked & broke one of the mach 10 wheels.so i would stick to the solid wheels.i would put 3 more vent holes thou.they come with 1 hole

I had to raise body mounts and cut a little off fenders.
senton 6s destroy tires.short course trucks having smaller tires,,tires spin alot faster at 50mph than any other 6s ride.what pinion gear is on truck?how many teeth??changing center diff fluid to 1 million will keep the front tires from ballooning an blowing.let me guess,truck wheelied front tires balloon an pow foam pad come out???you must start venting tires or they will always blow.

My rig is stock. Stock pinion.
I ran it on HRB 4s.
I will change the diff fluids: f60 c500 r20..
And yup.. it wasnt wheelie.
She sat down on the top of a small crest, so all the wheels where at the air and balloned..
 
let's see a pic.u are lucky to have a senton6.not so easy to find in the us.IMO typhon and typhon are the fastest off road rigs arrma makes.only off road rigs with 13/43 diffs making them tire shredding monsters with 20/50 gearing an 6s.
