X-Grip 32 shore rubber tires

Following a very long period of testing, in various tracks in Europe, X-Grip is really pleased to present their new X-Grip 32 rubber tires. X-Grip focussed on having a product that performed well but was easy to get the most out of while also being durable. The shape of the tread has been specially designed to have a gradual support that avoids abnormal behaviour, while the rim thanks to its internal design has been made sturdy and reliable.

Pro-Line have introduced the Hex Shot 1/8 Buggy race tire, a stepped-pin tire designed to tackle loose and loamy tracks.

The Hex Shot is made with Pro-Line’s latest generation carcass shape for improved bump handling, while the large pin design gives you the longevity for main events.

JConcepts Aggressor wheels, Fling King & Renegade tires

JConcepts continue to expand their monster truck line-up with the release of their new Aggressor wheels as well as Fling Kings and Renegade tires. The Aggressor wheel is familiar, on the outside it looks like its successful sibling, the Tribute wheel. However, to accommodate some of today’s trucks, the Aggressor is beefed up starting with thick wall sections throughout the wheel and a reinforced 17mm hex adaptor with a ten-leg bolt pattern that locks and keys into the wheel. To fit many of today’s solid axle and independent suspension monster trucks such as the Losi LMT and Traxxas Maxx, the inside of the wheel is raised to a 3.8” bead mounting diameter. The 2.6” outer bead diameter combined with the 3.8” inner diameter makes the wheel incredibly versatile and can fit to an array of vehicles on the market while still providing that monster truck look. The wheel comes with an optional planetary cover and axle adaptor to fit directly to the popular Traxxas Maxx vehicle and is available in white, black, yellow, and silver colours.

JConcepts’ Swagger 4wd front tire has a multitude of heights and angular ribs for corner speed, consistency and straight-line tracking ability.
