Pro-Line 1/8th Pin Point Z3 tires

Pro-Line Pin Point 1/8th

Pro-Line have sent us an exclusive image of their new Pin Point Z3 (Medium Carpet) Off-Road 1/8th Buggy carpet tires for front or rear. With Pro-Line entering the 1/10th carpet offroad market half way through last season, and being selected as the control tire for the popular EOS, the US company has jumped into the growing 1/8th carpet offroad scene with a larger version of their Pin Point pattern in carpet compound. We are told the tire will be made available in mid January.

JConcepts Dirt Webs tires

JConcepts Dirt Webs tires

Developed by Brian Kinwald and JConcepts designer Jason Ruon, Dirt Webs debuted during the 2013 IFMAR World Championships in Chico, CA, where Ryan Maifield used the front tire to set the fastest lap times on his way to 3rd overall in the 2wd class. Originally based on the popular Pressure Points tire and combining uniformly positioned Web-Bars to create an amazingly stable tire. The Dirt Webs relies heavily on the Web-treatment for massive forward acceleration while inside the supported bar portion rests horizontal and vertical alternating bars which help balance side-bite and backs up the Web-Bars to help minimize wear. Down in the corners, small Pressure Point sized pins break-in quickly providing surface area for specialty indoor racing and also lend a helping hand to stabilize the tire in extreme high-grip conditions.
