Pro-Line have released their new Caliber 2.0 SC 2.2”/3.0” M2 (Medium) Tires for Slash, Slash 4×4, SC10, Blitz and Ultima Front or Rear. The Caliber 2.0 SC takes tire technology to the next level by optimizing traction, control, balance and tire wear with its dual-stage design and wider contact patch. The smaller top pin penetrates through loose dirt while delivering unbelievable side and forward bite. The base pin works as a support for the top pin while acting as a dual-stage design once the top pin is worn down. You can rely on the base pin for greater tread life wear and it works well on those tracks that are prone to blue-groove or have a super clean surface.
