Pro-Line Big Blox 1/8th buggy tire

Pro-Line have announced their new Big Blox 1/8th buggy tire. Customers and Racers continue to demand higher and higher performance out of 1:8 Buggy Race tires while also requiring tires that last longer and longer. Large center lugs formed into a grid pattern provide the base for the long wear characteristics and unmatched mechanical grip found by all test drivers. The Big Blox tire also features Bow-Tie shaped lugs that scoop the Earth and propel your buggy to the top step of the podium. Great care was taken in detailing the side tread to achieve the same smooth side bite and steering feel found in Pro-Line’s highly successful Blockade Race Tire. The Large Lugs on the Big Blox allow racers to choose softer compounds than previously possible while still lasting through long A-Mains.
