VP Pro Gripz Evo 1/8th buggy tyre

VP-Pro have introduced their latest 1/8th scale buggy tyre, the Gripz Evo. The mini square pin tyre works on nearly every track surface, from damp or muddy loam to dry and dusty hard-packed blue groove. The light weight tyre excels especially in qualifying when speed and agility is the main target with the small and evenly spaced lugs allowing to cut through dust, clean out in wet conditions, and skim over bumps and ruts without causing traction rolling like larger pin tyres. The tyre is available in VP-Pro’s new series of rubber compounds that includes five rubbers for every track condition and weather.
