JConcepts Dirt Maze 1/10th buggy rear tyre

Coming from JConcepts is the Dirt Maze 1/10th buggy rear tyre in blue compound. The big brother to the Webs, the Dirt Maze tyre is designed specifically for the outdoor conditions where the track has been treated or left dry. Starting with thicker, connected webbing, the hot outdoor tyre provides a continuous edgy contact patch needed for driving outdoors and at high-speed. The center X section delivers the comfort with the forward bite and the slightly slotted portions allow some flexibility for stability over terrain. Resting inside the hefty X patterns, horizontal and vertical pins help minimise wear and add some surface area for longer qualifiers and main events. Moving toward the outside of the tyre, the alternating bar concept, used on V2 Bar Codes, support the side-load during heavy cornering at the end of straights and sweeping corners. Breaking up the alternating bars, an added horizontal bar blends deeply into the side-wall for balancing forward to side traction considerations. The 2.2″ tyre comes including Dirt Tech closed cell foam inserts.
