CS Electronic have released this side wall protection glue for use with both indoor and outdoor foam tires. Simply apply the glue into the pores of the side wall of your tire and it will create a thin flexible protective layer that will help to prevent chunking from hitting kerbs and other drivers. The glue does not affect the tire structure or reduce grip.

Pro Line have announced 2 updates to their extensive tire range with the introduction of the Crime Fighter to the company’s LPR range of tires. As the truggy class has evolved into pure performance trucks over such a short amount of time, the need for a tire that could meet and exceed those same performance needs was inevitable. Low Profile Race (LPR) means pure performance and Pro Line stretched the boundaries by offering less sidewall flex, greater response, more forward bite and all at a total weight savings. Also new is the introduction of the Hole Shot 4wd front tire, the first tire available on the electric scene in Square Lug Technology, which delivers performance at all levels of racing in just about every category of racing imaginable. Coupled with R3 material and your 4wd is ready for battle on many of today’s blue-groove surfaces.
