JConcepts Tribute Wheels BIGFOOT body set

JConcepts has teamed up with BIGFOOT 4×4 to offer officially licensed Tribute Wheels decal sets to go along with branded body shells. One of the more famous paint schemes from the 1990’s featured a lot of flame work on a black base colour body. This radical departure became a crowd favourite with Dan Runte piloting a new generation BIGFOOT to victory during the glory days of side-by-side competition. With JConcepts’ featured wheel in the RC monster truck product line, “Tribute Wheels” seems to be a perfect match for one of the more successful BIGFOOT trucks of all-time. The included body shell, a 1993 Ford F-250 with visor and racerback can be dressed as the iconic truck. With major help from the included decal sheet and massive wrap, the Tribute Wheels body is a thing of beauty once it is carefully prepped and decalled. Tribute Wheels BIGFOOT is the result of JConcepts always looking through the lineage to add staple designs to an already bolstered line-up. Back in 2020, the team unveiled this shell design with a wild look and to the pleasure of many RC monster truck fans, now, they were able to re-create a lot of their favourite vehicles.

JConcepts Kosmos & Sprinter SCT Aqua A2 compound

JConcepts is now offering their Kosmos and Sprinter SCT tyres in its Aqua A2 compound. Starting with a clean shape and carcass, for the Kosmos the design team took to a rectangular based pin which has the forward bite muscle to boost a 1:8 buggy. The staggered rows create a unique zig/zag affect at certain views giving it a 3D mind puzzle affect. In fact, the design is 4 rows deep of off-set and staggered sections when compared to some traditional tires which rely on 2. The Sprinter tyre is designed to bridge a gap between the popular Double Dees and other pin tire options from JConcepts. It has square, angled pins that are stacked vertically to flex and fold evenly across the tyre. Typically, a stacked tread will wear less and provide more forward bite while the aligned space helps rotation in the turns and gives a snappy release to square up quickly. Starting with the new tread, the team focused on durability and performance to bring a tyre option to market that competes on loose surfaces which are wet or dusty.
