Default Decisions, Decisions!

What do u guys think i shud do?

Buy cheap wheels and tires and stud them(for snow) but here is my problem, what if i want to rip up the street a couple times when im drivin with studs


Or shud i wait till my stock tires get weared out and pay double the price for all season tires i.e big joes or somthin.


Or shud i jus push away my erge to rip arond in the snow and not buy anythin?



Please post what u would do or what u have done.

Oh and do stock revo wheels (3.8" ) fit the badlands?

If you want to drive in the snow, buy the cheapest set of TMaxx take offs on eBay that you can and put studs in them. That whole venture will cost you probably $25 tops with studs. The best way I have seen is screwing the studs into the tire, so the screw head is sticking out (rather then screwing them in from the inside with the sharp part sticking out). It will hold up better and will work if you go on the street.

I don't think it would be nearly heavy enough to do any damage to a driveway regardless

Why not get some tire chains? I think they would work better than studs. By the way, I have the Badlands. Not sure if they fit hurricane wheels but I think they do awesome in the snow! They dig in great, are soft, and burn right down to the ground to get the traction. If you want to ride on top of the snow, get something wider. But for traction, the badlands are great!

put screws in your stock tires. you can always back them out.
