Pro-Line 1/8th & 1/10th tire updates

Pro-Line introduce their new Diamond Back 1/8th and Ion 1/10th buggy tires as well as several compound updates. Starting with the Diamond Back, the tire replicates the look of a snake’s skin with progressive tread that is denser in the center to provide long wear and spreads out closer to the sidewall to cut through the dust and debris found on the track surface. The Diamond Back tire has a fast but easy-to-drive feel that helped Pro-Line driver Ty Tessmann to record the fastest single lap at the recent 1/8th buggy WC in Argentina. The tire is available in Pro-Line’s new low-wear European-style X2 and X3 compounds. Both the X2 and X3 compound are now also available for the Blockade, Bow-Tie and Big Blox treads.
