I've been running DE rims for 10 months on my sc10 4x4 and a converted sct weighing 7 lbs with no issues whatsoever.

The 8mm mod plants the rear end under most conditions, not just high bite. If you need to lock in the back, try it.

ok, cool. since i have a set of JC 3mm offset, I will try those first. I am cheap. Hmm, so the 8mm mod locks in the rear, in under all med/high bite track conditions?

is it the b4.1 carbon fiber "C" for the b4 alum hubs? I have penty of screws and 3mm lock nuts, so thats all i would need? I also, have a b4, so not really wasting money if i dont like it.
This part? http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...-C-Tower-Set-2

I've been using the DE rims on my 4x4 and on 3 sc10 2wds and have not had a single issue.

Yes it's the "c" carbon fiber tower for the b4 that is used to complete the 8mm mod.

Hey better than my race weekend lol. Packed the car Friday night and went to be at ten. Heard a storm during the night work up with no power and with 4 trees down in my yard, 2 on the neighbors house and 100 degree weather with no AC. Sound of nitro was replaced with the sound of a chainsaw
Might not get power until thursday at the latest.
