Do most use the same tire front to back or is mismatching common?
For a track where 2wd are using slicks, would you recommend slicks on a 4wd?
22-4 front are what most run on the 413. I wouldn't run 2wd fronts. You can def run slicks on 4wd...there just a little tuning from pin tire setups. Mismatched tires are common and used for tuning traction and handling. It is especially important on 2WDs.
