Gnarly Sledgehammer Tires - Project Rustler 4x4 VXL Update | RC Driver
A short while back we featured the Traxxas Rustler 4x4 VXL in a full factory upgrade project series. This truck was a blast to drive before and after the project build and then we extended the series after getting some more parts in. Well we just got another noteworthy item for the truck and wanted to show you. We have the Sledgehammer tire option for the Rustler 4x4 or Stampede 4x4 and give you a look at the tire up close in this video. Then we bolt them on and take them for a drive at the local BMX track. If you’ve been thinking about using these tires, you need to see this video, there are things you need to take into consideration before using them.

What’s the driveline noise?
Hey Greg! I like how you talked us through the test drive and did not play music over it. I think it's better that way so we get your real and immediate response to what we are seeing. Great job. I was waiting on you for this review. Worth the wait!
That Rustler is a crazy little truck right out of the box. I always hand it off to new drivers as its pretty tough and its so nimble they learn pretty fast.
Yes I asked for another one of these I love the rustler sires
Love the vids. Keep em coming!!
I love them. I have had no issues.
Awesome vid!! Cant wait to try some sledgehammer tires myself!
Love the videos with a little more commentary on the bmx portions. Love all your videos regardless! cheers
You've sold me on the Rustler. Gonna get the VXL
Very good video, man. I hope your day is always fun.
I have proline badlands on mine in this size. I broke a rear drive axle in about 4 minutes. Put a set of teckno RC axles in and I ripped the center of the spur gear out of it. Made those same sounds when running around the backyard. Suggest changing out axles and metal spur gear and better slipper clutch components or differential.
Love these tires on my 4x4 rustler vxl. Much more of a basher now. Keep a eye on the wheel bearings, they tend to get chewed up.
AWESOMENESS!!! 😎
We’ve been using the Sledgehammer tires on the Rustler for awhile. We changed the diff oil front and rear, kept the hearing the same. Note though, sharpe turns those tires will catch the body and tear it. Apply some body armor neoprene.
Turn the wheelie bar upside down, little bit of shaving but it just gets the power down now and riiiiips. Way more fun...
I used to love Rc, bought 6 in one year ,got bored and now over 6 grand in in my basement, trying to sell them but you gotta give them away, all like new and get back 1/2
awesome
I like your videos the way you do product testing keep me updated on the rustler 4x4
Traxxas made their own Trencher. And it breaks axles! Take my money!
🚙Looks good Very Kewl💨 Yeah kinda worried about overheating and gearing as well.
