Yes they are awesome for outright grip in all situations. With the weight of the X Maxx these tires just find a way to find traction even when my 1/8 scale rigs do not.I highly recommend. I will say though they don't slide around corners nearly as well as Badlands (which have the hard compound). Badlands more for speed but for bashing and clawing for traction I don't think anything touches these deep lugged magmas.

If you still run the traxxas remote you should buy the phone mount that goes on the controller, that what I use for my videos now

Thats a great idea I didn't know about that will look into it. Thank you! Few more tests on these tires and the grip is ridiculous in all conditions.

@@CRAIGMAC-RC Oh yeah, they're one of the heaviest tires on the market for the truck same weight as Trenchers (can run proline rims and aluminum screws, 240g weight saving all around not worth the $$ to do that though imo). If you like drifting around and handling, I'd go Proline Badlands. These Magma tires make whatever you have feel more like a monster truck. I imagine people who like backflips will love them. If you have an upgraded esc you won't notice the weight from a performance standpoint...everything will just get hotter lol. I do think they would be too much for the stock esc with speed gearing I wouldn't do that lol. I have a ton of XLX2s laying around so put one in this rig too, it's hard on the motor but whatever when it burns I'll upgrade.
