JConcepts Teazers 1:8 Truck tyre

New from JConcepts is the Teazer tire which the Florida company has created for the competitive world of 1:8 truck racing.  Packed with almost 4000 individual pins, the Teazer uses a multi-height and multi-width pin system to incorporate the dense pin count.  The square based, angular lugs alternate in height and width to connect with a track surface by allowing the taller pins to reach deep and contour with the terrain.  The shorter pins stiffen the base, add surface area, and provide increased longevity for long main events.  JConcepts started this design with conditions in mind that were very typical of 1:8 offroad.  Dusty, bumpy and sometimes wet and dry areas make this form of racing the most difficult to tame and the Teazers have all the ingredients. The tires feel to the touch much like a field of grass, the individual blades of tire tread grip independently to form the ultimate low traction or slick groove condition tyre.  Alternating bars support sections of the tire where more forward grip is desired while the half-height design of the bar still allows flexibility.
