Geared down the Maxx for use with heavier tires, so far so good.
Great upgrade gear can change the grearing to meet the terrain

Nine reviews, mostly 5/5, with one 4/5. Several reviewers praise the gear as a sturdy, wide-toothed steel pinion that costs less than comparable brands. Multiple reviews are short, near-identical comments about the gear allowing gearing changes for terrain. Reviewers use different tooth counts (11T to 20T), and one notes a 3mm set screw rather than the 4mm found on a competing brand. One verified owner reports that on an E-Revo 2.0 a 46T spur gear caused the motor to hit the ESC, so they reverted to the stock 54T spur with a 13T pinion for bigger tires. The 4/5 reviewer geared down a Maxx for heavier tires with satisfactory results.
