Welcome the fourm and please read over the rules.

You'll want a servo motor if your going to do actual crawling. And some sticky tires. Aoshima swampers would do fine here. If your just ripping it around in some grass or small rocks, I'll recommend a motor with a little more torque then speed. a 60/40 balence. Theres MANY threads on this topic, we do have a lovely search function here that you can use.

IROKS are big and hard with very little grip on small surfaces... off road they aren't bad though....

somewhere is a picture comparing all the common tire sizes... can't find it right now though....

{EDit} here you go:


(left to right... Hummer Tire 30mm tall, Offroad Tire 33mm tall, XI Super Swamper Tire 39.5mm tall and XI IROK Super Swamper Tire 49.5mm tall)


Courtesy of Xmods International.....

Aoshima would be the ideal choice but can be hard to find....

aoshimas have way better grip... the XI super swampers have bad grip and so do the IROKS...
