Someone brought these tires to my attion. So thanks to this person.
Im wanting to know if the road rage tires will fit the proline tech5 rims?? If so what would they look like?? I can't find no pics of this combo at all.
I'm looking for a nice set of black rims not crome. Not that big into crome trays why km wanting to get rid of my stock rims and tires on my xxl.
I like the tread pattern on the road rage they seems like they can handle some hills and some deasent bashing. If anyone has any pics of thoes tires on black rims please let me know. Or if you know were I can find a nice set of black rims or rims that can be dyed that would be nice as well. Thanks to all for the help....

Go with the Axial Black 40 series rims, not the beadlocks. The beadlocks are junk. Unless your only on pavement don't go with the Road Rage tires. If your on dirt and street, go with the proline 40 series maxx Mashers. These tires are great all around.

Yea I seen that pic. It did look nice. I'm just trying to find a different set of rims more my style. I'm not a far of stock as you seen in my pics lol. I'm not a huge fan of crome not unless there different from my xxl rims. I'm not a fan of thoes rims really and would like something different.
I like the style of the wabash rims. Pretty much anything with like a spoke design. Or axial rims without the beadlocks..
What do you guys think about these tires. They seen like they have the beat of both worlds and a nice off-road pattern as well..

We will find out. I'm Probley going to get them in black. I'm going to ask around to see if there are taller and wider than my xxl rims. If they are I'm most likely pass. I've seen thoes tires on a xl on Google and they were a good size bigger than the stock rims and tires on the xl. I have no idea how big the stock xl rims are I have never seen a xl. I wonder how big they are to the xxl rims?? Are they taller than the xxl rims??

The rims on my aftershock were chrome I just painted them with blue clear coat and it gave them a blue anodized look. You can get high heat paint for engine blocks that will give you a ceramic look when finished make sure to spray on in thin coats to prevent runs and this will allow you to create any color combo you want and looks a lot more custom then dye if you want true scale looks
