I tried doing it myself in my first home and it peeled with the heat of the summer tires. Then again I never do that kind of stuff. That's why I left it to a pro for my current home. Doing my 9th track day in 18 months Saturday and have the photographer set up to shoot my car during my sessions. Looking forward to adding some cool shots from the track with the new wheels for the garage gallery !!

Is yours brushless? My daughters is a brushed 2wd but even it is crazy fast. I like the wheel/tire combo you have.
Mine is Velineon 3500 Brushless Motor 4x4 & I loooove it.
I run it on 3S lypo's and it's awesome
Here is a lil vid that I made with my own gopro360design for RC cars.

Great video!! I have a castle 2200 motor, I tore the front diff out today I do enjoy working on it since there isn't much work to do on the ISF but it's literally another diff every time I take it out. It's starting to get old.... I have a 1/10 summit that's stock so i always have one to drive but the Summit is pretty slow although it goes over anything.

Thanks man, those are my Summer wheels for my Saab Viggen. I love those BBS RK1's.. The rack I got from Tire Rack.. Its solid... I can fit up to 6 or 8 tires on it depending on size.

Here's mine. Spent a ton of $$$ on the epoxy floor, but it was well worth it.

Looks great !!! I agree, its worth every penny and the multiple days of parking the cars outside. And its still relatively rare to see the garage with epoxy floors. Most garages are simply dumping grounds. The worst are the ones with so much crap in them that the owners park outside lol

Nice-looking setups here. I guess I'll reconsider doing mine...
