Tires/rims what to get?
Right now i'm running maximizer bead lock rims with the stock savage tires on there. I was wondering if going to a bigger tire would help with cornering/traction. Like maybe some 40 series tires. I've got beefed up diffs and CVD's all the way around and down the center. I've got a 3 speed tranny with a mach .26. I'm trying to make my truck more stable any suggestions?

savage 25 tires or 4.6 tires? You goin for traction on dirt or pavement?
From what I have seen the 25 tires like to roll over a lot on pavement but seem to do quite well on dirt. The 4.6 tires are ok on pavement and good on dirt. As for the bigger tires you will have more mass you will have to turn so it may not turn as fast but could inprove the traction. I never had larger tires so I hope that helps.

yeah i've got the stock savage 25 RTR tires. I'm looking for something that's good on dirt but won't get too torn up on pavement. i'm more wondering about size... maybe something that's wider?
