I ran the stock front and rear belts with no problems. I just made sure I had the belt tension just tight enough that it wouldn't skip. The side belt I went with the HPI belt before I sold the car but it fit great. The guy who bought it from me is using it and said it works great.
I know you can get a few different width belts for the front and rear of the car from Wolf Hobbies. My stock belts seemed very soft and broke in quickly.
I do have the belt tension not to tight but tight where it shouldnt skip.... I am just kinda upset that this happend almost sold my car for $20 when i paid $549 and have had it less then 6 months

I drive without the front tensioner on my cars and moved the front tensioner to the side to give me more room to play with.
