Losi 8ight t gearing question

Just trying to find a resource for very dependable Spur and Pinion gears for my losi 8ight t conversion.

Any recommendations for a good setup?

That depends on the brand and size of motor you're running.

Good point
Im running a MMM2200 combo with the losi mount. I'll would get the rc-monster mount but i wasnt to thrilled with their mount for the revo. It kept coming loose, hopefully the losi works better!

The Losi conversion kit includes two pinions (15 and 16) and a 45T plastic spur gear. I'm using the 15T pinion with a Tekin 1550 motor on 5S.

Any links? I ask cause I read a guy say he only uses metal spurs and such so I was wondering where can i go to look for "quality" gears or is there no need to worry. Im a spur stripper so metal gears do entice me!
