You can remove the wheel from the clamp and the pin will fall out, if you're not careful. Some wheels have a slot where the pin nestles, but if it's removed the pin can fall out. When I changed a wheel once, I didn't make sure that the pin was in the slot. In the process of ordering new pins, the pin fell out, I lost it, and I had to replace it.

A 2WD buggy does not have any problems with the front Anacodas since they are thinner and last longer. As the VXL brushless motor generates quite a bit more power, especially when using a LiPo battery, they will last longer on the Brush motor. *To be fair, I have run these tests mostly on a paved surface that is similar to sandpaper, rather than smooth. In order to run on this kind of surface, they were pretty much done after 10 runs or five hours of running.
There does not seem to be a wide range of tires available. A Bandit is available in a 2 inch size. As well as this pair, I have two more. "Dirt Hawgs" are 8 inches in diameter. This machine is great for off-roading, hard packed dirt, or grass with a small amount of Tires will not do everything, just be sure not to expect anything The full-sized car won't be able to do it RC cars will not be able to do all that it does. During open road racing on pavement, the Dirt Hawgs will run fine if you avoid pulling the car into corners too hard. Just remember not to drift, as the tire bite will easily flip the vehicle over. They look good, though I would recommend not walking on pavement with them to prolong the life of their treads.
The tires I own are used by my 2 bandits to race around my circle drive. This circle is made out of concrete the road is made out of asphalt. The tires have lasted for a long time, and they are comfortable on it. Despite the fact that 70% of my driving is on roads, it still has decent traction. I bought these because I mostly drive on roads. According to the tires I burned bald in 1 1/2 days with the stock tires. Three months have passed since the anaconda tires were installed. It is about time for them to be replaced, but they are still in service.
I have the only problem that the wheels and rims are pretty cheap. We haven't even run the battery through a full cycle yet and the rubber is already ripping right off the rim, and the chrome is chipping off!.
Those who run 2S on hard surfaces should consider these tires. You will not be disappointed if you get them. Getting a wheelie bar will help you out. There will be a time when you.
It is lustrous chrome, which is different from the black I have it mounted on my Traxxas Bandit, but it doesn't look like the match I was expecting. Trying to return this set of wheels for black chrome would have been too expensive by the time I had paid for shipping again. Though the fit and function of the wheels are great, I was disappointed that I received the wrong wheel color. As mentioned above, HRPA need to mention Shinny chrome wheels somewhere since the new Bandits have chrome wheels that look like they are polished. The ones I have are black chrome, being a little older.
I have traxxas bandit tires that are good on paved roads.
It's all right. Speed runs on my slash will be the sole purpose of these. A couple runs on a 3 cell Lipo, but the batteries show significant wear. What they are supposed to do is keep things out of the streets, but they destroy them instead. This could have been a little tougher.
