I run both 200mm and 190 mm. for 20mm i usually run these offset combos...6mm/9mm, 7mm/10mm, 10mm/12mm, or square set up of 9mm, 10mm, sometimes 12mm depending on how much camber you're running.

I have another GS i'll be working on soon...gotta figure out what color and wheels of choice. As usual, curtains, visors and all that little detail will be thrown on the body.


and as far as price, it really all depends on what you're going for. HPI and tamiya have good starter kits to begin with and practice drifting/racing or what not. so chassis running already would usually go for 250 and up. You might find deals for used cars on craigslist or ebay.

bodies range from 20-100 depending on how rare and where its coming from.
