Pro-Line Slide Lock 1/8th buggy tyre

Coming from Pro-Line is the new Slide Lock 1/8th buggy tyre. It features a unique design from Pro-Line that is made specifically for smooth, low grip tracks. The tread features a pattern of small, tightly packed hexagon and triangle shaped pins to lay down as much rubber as possible. The tread is also laid out wider across the tyre carcass for a flatter profile overall compared to other Pro-Line 1:8 race tyres. Each hexagon pin has a deep sipe down the middle of the tread for added flex and grip on even the slickest of surfaces. The built-in tread flex means drivers can run harder compounds for longer wear and still have good traction when needed. The large and stiff side pins reach far down the sidewall to reduce edginess as much as possible. The tyre is available including blue closed cell inserts in a variety of compounds including M3 soft, M4 super soft, X2 medium and X3 soft.

Pro-Line introduce new 1.9” trail truck pre-mounts

Coming from Pro-Line are new pre-mounted tyres for 1.9” trail rigs. Available soon are the Hyrax 1.9” and Interco Bogger 1.9” tyre on Impulse black plastic internal bead-loc wheels. Designed from the ground up for maximum grip on the toughest terrain, the Hyrax tyre is ready for anything your Scale Adventure might throw at you. The Hyrax features an aggressive and open tread pattern with each tread block containing multiple Sipes for incredible tread flex. The highly detailed connected tread on the sidewall of the Hyrax extends out for exceptional side-hilling performance. The tyre also features futuristic stepped tread blocks that create even more forward gripping edges that dig into slick rocks. The officially licensed Interco Bogger tyres feature a directional tread pattern with the patented Interco TSL (three stage lug) design just like the full-size tyres. The tyres are aggressive in stock form and are also extremely versatile and easily modified for even more mud flinging performance. Both are a direct fit for most 1.9” crawler and trail trucks and they come in G8 crawler compound.

Pro-Line Slide Job 2.2” dirt oval tyres

Following a first teaser image Pro-Line have officially introduced their new Slide Job 2.2” dirt oval off-road tyre. The tread pattern was inspired by the tyres found in full-size dirt oval racing so drivers can have realistic style and performance on their sprint cars or any 2.2” buggy tyre application. The Slide Job tyre features rounded side tread for consistent slide action that will not catch ruts and flip the car when it is thrown up into the corner. The multi-block tread pattern also creates great forward grip combined with long lasting and consistent performance and the tyre is available as front or rear variant in soft M3 compound, suitable for standard 2.2″ buggy wheels, and including blue closed cell inserts.
