I'm just wondering that way if I get in a pinch I could throw them on. Plus if you look at the stock ones they are pretty flimsy from the get go. I've looked at traxxas captured ends but they are too thick. Thanks.
yeah, the carbon inserts stiffen it up a lot. you would need to try it unglued to see if you like it. I dont know your traction levels. but gluing the inserts in does add more stiffness.
