MOD ‘Jericho’ 1:5 Offroad Tyres

1:5 Offroad racing specialists MOD has entered the tyre market, Matt Olson’s company releasing the Jericho tire intended for the Losi 5B/5T. From years of racing at the highest level and knowing the market, MOD has taken inspiration design aspects from the most well known tires on the market. The Jericho could be described as a design fusion between the JConcepts Reflex and the Proline Fugitive (discontinued) with some MOD flair. The inner lug row being larger then the outer due to our tires not being flippable. After many years of having been subject to a single compound but maybe different treads, the Jericho comes in 3 compounds – soft, medium, and hard. The MOD tire design features elements seen in tires we have all loved in the current space including the small square pin but with some added features including the centre offset bar that will help with overall wear as well as the driver can clip every other center nub creating a small paddle for those loamy rough tracks. With a nice overall tread perfect for all race track conditions both loamy and hard packed the tire is easily tunable with the compounds provided.
