JConcepts brought several new products to show and use at this week’s 26th Pro-Line Cactus Classic. First up is the Pressure Points truck tire that makes use of the tread recently introduced with the Pressure Points short course tire. The latest low-height tread option is specifically designed to tame high-speed courses with either wet or blue groove traction conditions. The tread starts as an angular, low pin design as a carryover from the Bar Codes front tire and sports small points combined with Y elements to achieve a maximum in penetration and tack. The inner side-wall has built-in ribbing which limits carcass collapse and increases support on the outside during hard cornering and driving.
