Look up some ofna DM-1 spec tires.

I use Proline Road Rage

shock towers, a-arms and chassis

They may as well put out a new car.

I know, right!
towers will be like $50-$60, chassis $100 and A-arms about $25 for both f/r

Yesterday, I put on new a-arms just to start using up my spares
Should be out in April though

Thats the going rate for a chassis. But why would the rest of the parts be that much? $50-$60 for towers? Carbon ones are usually like $25

Ofna belted slicks work quite well, but the foam sucks (IMO) and they're expensive. However, they hardly balloon (almost too little to even see), even with a 2050kV motor and a 6S battery!

The others I tried were Road Rages from Pro-Line. More grip than the Ofnas (surprisingly) however they are not belted, so if you don't want them to balloon, they need to be taped. When I had mine, I had an 1800kV motor and with a 6S battery, they'd balloon like mad. However, I will admit that I though it looked kind of cool to see the car come flying by with saucers for tires!

If you get the Road Rages, make sure you prep the tires and wheels really well and use high quality glue. I didn't take the time to prep mine properly and they started pulling off of the wheel. I'd reglue them, but I couldn't keep them glued on. I don't think it was the wheel or the tire, but my prep that was the problem.

I think Be chassis runs around $60-ish.

The new "worlds" chassis. If that's what they are still calling everything.

So wouldn't the new chassis be pretty close in price?

$25-$30 each

Other than ebay, where do you see this for $60ish?

Guys, where can I research the proposed updates for the 2011 RC8B(E)? BTW, what are the proposed changes going to be for the E?

I tried to Google the changes but can't seem to find them. Thanks for providing a link!

You're right. I was quoting an eBay price. I was a bit off. Seems that there are a couple to be had around $70. Last time I looked there were at least 3 or 4 around $60. Looks to be around $80 from Tower if you spend a few more bucks and use the $15 off coupon.

You can get the new geometry shock towers and H-arm mod now.
