Default Advise, front brace and crc strut

Hi,

I am new to 1/12. Just got a CRC 6 packs. Please advise.

I noticed that RC12L3 got a front alum brace that link
the steering block together. I don't have that on my
CRC, is it useful ? What's the effect for the brace ?

My CRC got with this strut thingy on the rear pod.
The manual suggest a thick sillicon oil. Err... how thick
is thick ? Can I use sillicon grease instead ? I tried
that and it seems okie. Am I doing the right thing.

There is some talk on a lower rear alum pod, is it
useful ? is there a cheaper option that CRC ?

How do you usually calculate gear ratio for 1/12 ?
is there a guide line ?

And... maybe silly me... is there such thing as rubber
tires for 1/12 ?

Please advise.
