1/7 Landmine Pre-Mounted Desert Truck Tires, Yellow Compound, Traxxas UDR (2)

Introduction

The Landmines, available as pre-mounted, developed after tuning and analysis have reached the summit and now available to the UDR enthusiast. The design starts with a robust carcass carefully shaped and sized for a multitude of conditions and capable of bashing those difficult courses while being down-to-earth enough to carry a scale appearance.

The team spent considerable time with the split-block center design which has been sliced, stepped, and recessed for flexibility and contortion over sharp, loose, and polished surfaces. The Landmines have alternating solid and cavity pads which is ideal for transitioning from smooth dirt or pavement into dirt, mud, and rocky terrain. Moving toward the edges of the carcass, the tire has horizonal grippy pads with edge and channels to provide additional forward bite.

Down within the tread, a lightning pattern, knob plots and connector bars pull the design together to work together at shallow and deep sinking positions. Once power is applied to the vehicle, the tread spacing opens which allows for deep digging, making it a great working tire in dirt and muddy conditions. As the tread rolls down the sidewall, a whole new course of tread and side-lugging is applied. A grippy radial ring provides a consistent rubber contact patch in high-speed conditions while in the vertical plane, new traction bars alternate between angular and island mapping for additional grip.

The flexibility of the yellow compound combined with the lug arrangement gives the tire a grippy feel but still hard enough to hold the mass of a larger truck. The overall height provides plenty of ground clearance for an abundance of terrain and bossed side-wall logos read with beauty and balance. The tires include a medium/hard open cell foam insert capable of standing up to the compound but flexible enough for low traction terrain. Watch-out, Landmines are taking over.
