JConcepts Kosmos & Sprinter SCT Aqua A2 compound

JConcepts is now offering their Kosmos and Sprinter SCT tyres in its Aqua A2 compound.  Starting with a clean shape and carcass, for the Kosmos the design team took to a rectangular based pin which has the forward bite muscle to boost a 1:8 buggy.  The staggered rows create a unique zig/zag affect at certain views giving it a 3D mind puzzle affect. In fact, the design is 4 rows deep of off-set and staggered sections when compared to some traditional tires which rely on 2.  The Sprinter tyre is designed to bridge a gap between the popular Double Dees and other pin tire options from JConcepts.  It has square, angled pins that are stacked vertically to flex and fold evenly across the tyre.  Typically, a stacked tread will wear less and provide more forward bite while the aligned space helps rotation in the turns and gives a snappy release to square up quickly.  Starting with the new tread, the team focused on durability and performance to bring a tyre option to market that competes on loose surfaces which are wet or dusty.
