RE: runing in sand
i would highly reccommend the short paddles from proline. the tall paddles actually hook so good that most motors cant turn them and rapp them up. these short paddles rev up great and still hook great too resulting in better acelleration and top speed. these are 40 series tires though...

if you need 17mm 40 series rims, here is what we are running...

RE: runing in sand
i agree the paddle tires are probably best. do u have an aircomppresor? if u do cleaning it will be so easy just blow off all the sand. i will aslo make sure that the airfilter is on very tight. put a zip-tie on to keep the air filter around the carb neck, pull the zip-tie with pliers then cut off extra. keep it oiled good. and thats pretty much it

your body will prevent most sand from getting in your truck when upside down, just be sure not to pick the truck up and accidentally scoop a bunch of sand into the truck as flip it over.
