Overview
Believe it or not, there are a lot of possible tire combinations in the RC monster truck racing game. Throughout the years, the kings of the business experimented as much with tires as off-road racers have done during the same time. Without dipping into off-road racing combinations, it requires a lot of creativity to produce new options while keeping in the spirit of traditional monster truck racing. The Racer tire by JConcepts is a twist and a turn off the popular Firestorm tire providing a new cutting-edge option.
In the past, the only way to modify scale monster truck tires was to slice and cut by knife, taking up to as much as 40 hours per tire. The JConcepts Racer tire has those trimmed sections built into the RC tire pattern featuring crisply “chiseled” carcass removal and heavily back-cut lugs. The sidewalls have been chamfered, removing overhung tread to provide a light-weight design capable of driving through high-traction turns with a freeness that helps quicken the rotation. The Racer tires are crew-cut to maintain performance in all the right areas while maintaining low-profile with a wide-body base.
The overlapping center tread provides a steady surface area for smooth surfaces, asphalt, or concrete runs. The sidewall lettering is one of the most detailed in class boasting information such as branding, sizing, and monster truck specific naming and construction specifications. The Racer tires are available in blue and gold compound and include medium open cell inserts for support and carcass definition. Match with JConcepts #3377 wheels in white, black, gray, or yellow colors to perfectly set off the vehicle.
The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported, and developed by professionals with style and authenticity. JConcepts Racing Tires are molded in exclusive compounds which are world proven for performance, driven, and tested by experts in the industry. Look for reputable dealers and distributors and demand authentic and licensed products – choose JConcepts.
