Hey! Off topic, but can you tell me more about the aluminum wheels?
I don't want to keep shelling out money on broken plastic wheels.
Are the aluminum wheels worth it?
Would you recommend them for an XRT?
As @KnowAir stated I do pretty well for myself. Keep in mind I have 4 8s Outcast. All for different reasons. I own an xrt as well. If you're running stock electronics my advice would be no. The aluminum wheels add a serious amount of weight. I have run Choppers with the Jconcept wheels on my xrt. No breakage or heat issues but Im not on stock electronics and it remained 8s. I do have a couple a pair Vitavon wheels. Both the aluminum version and the lightweight version. Lightweight version is still considerably heavier than stock wheels. In the end your budget will dictate what and how you run your RC's. Keep in mind my Outcast 8s and Kraton 8s are no longer stock electronics. I do run 12s on both. I wouldnt run 8s with aluminum wheels but thats me. If you got the coin and want to invest money into the XRT go for it. I love my aluminum wheels but they're not a necessary item IMHO. Good luck!
