I have Kyosho ZX-5 arrived today.
The website recommends a 10T motor for the offroad.

But which 10T brushed motor?

Can you recommend a 10T brushed motor?

I would get one of these: http://www.teamcheckpoint.com/
very fast motors and you can get like 10 runs on them atleast before you have to even cut the comm, And the power stays the same through out all of the runs.

if the zx is a 2wd buggy i would start with something a little less potent.
the 10 turn will be a rocket but the run time goes down with it.
we use trinity's ruby which is a 17 turn and it goes fast enuff but still gets good run time.
depends on whether you are racing or bashing.

ps any companies 10- turn wil be good because companies who make s#$%ty motors wont make a 10 turn because they know only experienced racers will use them.
Trinity products are always good.

be prepared to cut your comm regularly and buy lots of extra brushes .

2 motors are good too when one is in need of rebuild the other can go in.

I run a Team Checkpoint 9T in my xxx-4 and I love it!

After more than 30 RUNS I still haven't cut the comm or changed the brushes, and I still get over 90 percent of the power I had originally.

30 runs without comm cut or new brushes on a 9T motor is almost unheard of - I'm REALLY happy with team checkpoint and highly recommend them.

Trinity makes some really nice motors. The cobalt would make a good motor.

Also check your PM

What esc can you recommend for this motor?

Depends what vehicle you're gonna use it in - for my stampede, I use my novak super rooster with this motor - the super rooster can handle up to 10 cells which is perfect for my pede.

With my b4 or xxx4, i'll use my LRP F1 Pro Reverse. It's tiner than the super rooster, which is important especially in the xxx-4. It only supports up to 7 cells, but that's the most i run in my buggies anyhow.
