HongNor BT-119 buggy tire & closed cell insert

HongNor have released their new BT-119 buggy tire with closed cell insert. The tire has been made with a special Butyl rubber compound and features a small top pin for light to heavy loose dirt, while the base pin is great on hard-packed surfaces. The Internal carcass ribbing helps reduce tire expansion under acceleration. The included closed cell insert offers low rebound, with no air gaps in between tires. Extremely durable and lightweight, they claim to be perfectly balanced.
