Pro-Line Positron 2.2” S4 compound rear tyre

Pro-Line is busy adding more new tyres to their line-up with the latest being the popular Positron 2.2 inch rear tyre in S4 super soft compound. Designed from the ground up with an all-new carcass shape and futuristic directional tread design, the Positron delivers true next-generation performance with improved grip and corner speed on indoor clay tracks. The tread design pays homage to the Electron and ION tyre before it with the two centre pins boxed in by connected bars for a familiar Pro-Line signature look. From there the connected bars shoot off at angles that have been specifically designed to provide ideal steering feel when combined with the Positron front tyre all while lasting longer than the competition. The Positron is directional, which adds another tuning option for the racers always looking for that extra edge since it will perform differently depending on which direction it is run.

Pro-Line Ibex Ultra Comp 2.2” rock terrain tyre

Pro-Line have unleashed the Ibex Ultra Comp 2.2” rock terrain competition tyre. In nature, the Ibex is a powerful and wild species of mountain goat known for its large horns and incredible climbing abilities on near-vertical rock faces. This amazing animal served as an inspiration for developing the Ibex tyre in super soft Predator compound. Designed from the ground up with input from multi-time Comp Crawling World Champion Jake Wright, the tyre is 5.5” tall by 1.75” wide allowing for greater agility when tackling extremely tight gates with MOA or Super Shafty comp rigs. The multi-step tread pins on the Ibex are spaced out perfectly to dig into every possible edge on the rock face to give you the advantage over the competition. The Ibex 2.2” tyre is made from Pro-Line’s proprietary super soft Predator compound, which is ultra-sticky and allows the tyre carcass to conform to any surface.

Pro-Line Shadow 2.2” buggy tyres

Coming from Pro-Line are their new Shadow 2.2” buggy tyres. Designed for drivers that are tired of burning down brand-new Positrons into ghost pins or slicks in order to be competitive in several track conditions, the new Shadow tyres have the same Positron tyre shape but require much less grinding and burning in to get into the sweet spot. The tread of the Shadow matches the internal webbing exactly as if the internal webbing grew from the inside out. This provides consistent stability when running as ghost shadow tread while the short tread makes it easy to burn off when needing a full slick. The tyre is available as 2WD front, 4WD front and 2WD/4WD rear tyre in MC clay and S4 super soft compounds.
