Axial Yeti vs Hobbyking Desert Fox tire upgrade

In this new series, I'm going to put the Hobbyking Desert Fox head to head with the Axial Yeti. At roughly 1/5 the cost, how will it compare? What upgrades will we do to both rigs along the way to make them both better trucks? In this first episode, I'll give you some background on both trucks, then we get right into the upgrades with new tires for both of them! The Yeti will get a brand new set of 2.2" Pitbull Rockbeast XOR tires, and the Desert Fox will get the "Austar" branded knock-offs.
