Pro-Line Tazer RR & Hole Shot FR 1/10th tire

Pro-Line have released the Tazer for 1/10th buggy a race tire that provides unmatched forward bite in loose and dusty track conditions without the undesired edginess. The Tazer features large overlapping center treads that will last throughout the long A-mains and perfectly sized lugs that will propel you to the top of the podium. Available for the rear they come in M3 and M4 compounds. Also new is the Hole Shot 1/10th 2wd front tire in M3 and M4 compounds. If you race your buggy outdoors, then you need the new Hole Shot. Unlike the typical ribbed front tire, these 2WD fronts are super smooth while still maintaining all the steering you need. Ribbed fronts are known for doing the catch-and-grab at the wrong time leading to inconsistent handling. This thread sets the new standard in steering for every outdoor track condition, from super loose to hard-packed.
