Big Rock Smaller tires on big rock?!?!

[UtagNat]

Hello all!!! I am just wondering if putting smaller tires on a Big Rock V3 would help with weight problems on motor and axles. I somehow ordered pro line LP 2.8” Trenchers tires part#10159-10. I thought they would be the same size as my Badlands #10125-10. Should I try them or just sell em and get the right size?!? I wanted belted. What is your opinion?!?!

Heavy,larger tires destroy drivetrains.keep an eye on tire&wheels weights.belted tires always are heavier,trenchers being one of the heaviest. Try them out see if you like them.

The trenchers I bought seem to be for the Typhon or rock crawler type. Seems I ordered wrong so I thought being smaller maybe it would save on axles. But they seem almost to small

Pretty sweet Rock!! With those tires it would be more for speed not bashing correct?!? But yeah you are right about the size. I may try em just for fun. Imma do more bashing than speed.
