Available for the rear they come in M3 and M4 compounds. Also new is the Hole Shot 1/10th 2wd front tire in M3 and M4 compounds. If you race your buggy outdoors, then you need the new Hole Shot.

This thread sets the new standard in steering for every outdoor track condition, from super loose to hard-packed.
