JConcepts Metrix 8th buggy tyre

JConcepts Metrix 8th buggy tyre

JConcepts introduce the Metrix 1/8th buggy tyre that deputed during the 2012 IFMAR World Championships and won the 2013 Dirt Nitro Challenge. Utilising a stacked centre tread, with aspects carried over from the Crossbow tyre the Metrix is designed to give great forward bite on dusty and loose conditions while the directional outer lugs smoothly transition over rough terrain for an easy to drive feeling. The staggered and directional Bar Code inspired sidewall treatment offers a less agressive initial steering response but a balanced feel for more driver confidence on rutted, bumpy and wavy deteriorating track sections. Available in medium yellow, medium soft red, soft blue, super soft green and mega soft black compounds and including lightweight and durable profiled closed cell inserts. Also available are pre-mounted green compound tyres.
