I use the standard setup on my B4. 35W front 30W rear. Silver springs all round seem quite good.
Mini spikes are the tyre of choice. A few more 2 wheel drives will be there than normal tonight as we are going to put more carpet down.
Brushless is the way for us. Im not sure there are many left running brushed!!
6.5L in my B4. You can get the power down on the carpet sections.
