I like what I have heard and seen about the AMS Aerospeeds. They advertise that is is better suited for off camber in the sand on the Rhinos.

don't use either of those for a rhino. What you want is a lumberjack carcass with 7 paddles glued on. Rhinocrap.com sells them

Max Powers - What are your reasons for not using them? I can't find them on their web site.

call nick(under contacts), he can set you up.
The areospeeds have been shot down consistently. The lumberjacks are the lightest you can find and seem to work the best.
I bought these and they work good.

They are a mudlite buffed with 7 paddles.
I tested them against my 489's . The 489 actually floated a little better and hooked up fine on the hills, they seem to hold the revs higher longer than the paddles. Both ran very well though the paddles throw a 20ft roost which looks real cool.

I just put a set of Beadlock Specialties beadlocks on my Rhino last night. They look to be very high quality. Best looking wheels I've ever bought as well.

From my experiance the ITP's suck. I run the lumber jack 7 paddle with the smoothies up front, my brother got a rhino about the same time I did and some idoit talked my brother into buying the ITP's.
Our first trip we where both stock and we went over to test hill at gordons and made a few runs, I made it up the hill every time and he could not make it up at all. He tried different air pressure with no change, he thought mabey it was his rhino so when we got back to camp we swapped paddles and made a run back to the hill. This time he made it up every time with my lumber jacks and I coulndt make it up at all with the ITPs.
As soon as we got home he pawned them off on some one else.

Lugnut- Do you have the same ones pictured above? Where can they be purchased? I plan on getting rid of the Aerospeeds and replacing them. Thanks

nick @ rhinocrap always has that stuff in stock

so its better to run in 2wd with smoothies up front?
or would it be better to just run dirt tires to keep the revs up?
