One
of the best ways to sling the dirt and sand is with the new Animal tire
by JConcepts. The large height, paddle rear tire is the go-to item for
blasting the dunes, cutting through the dust, sand, and dirt while
spraying rooster-tails against the competition. The perfect tire to fit
vehicles such as the Maxx, Kraton 4S, and Kagama 4S is 1:1 inspired to
provide best in class looks and performance. The JConcepts carcass has
strategically placed upper paddles with a scoop shape to thrust into any
patch of terrain and blow right through it. One of the details is the
smooth carcass with mock cut-off paddle sections which is a common sight
in 1:1 tires.
The
tire carcass is built on a large and rugged carcass where the beads
position to the Shuttle wheels. The tires have heavy inner x-bracing,
sidewall support ribs and blocking to help minimize expansion. The
stance makes high-speed runs and turns possible and the race enhanced
compound grips to just about any bashing surface imaginable. The tall
paddle tread provides a lot of life in multiple conditions and the
detail in the tread helps versatility of the tire. Bold tire lettering
on the outside of the tire gives a high impact look and authenticity
exclusive to JConcepts.
The
pre-mounted Animal tire is mounted with open cell inserts for
versatility and dependability. The 1-piece Shuttle wheel is secured to
the tire by glue by pre-mounting professionals. The combination comes
with 2 different wheel off-set adaptors to accommodate 3 different
vehicles. The wider option should be used to fit the Traxxas Maxx, and
the narrower option should be used with the Kraton 4S.
Large
scale RC vehicles have grown to new heights. Dependable combinations,
explosive power, and thrills pack a serious punch and together with
JConcepts accessories, provide a winning combination. Product designs
are packed with over 30 years of RC experience and backed with JConcepts
customer support and racing heritage. When it comes to embracing the RC
community, JConcepts supports hundreds of events per year and locks in
on key events promoting racing, bashing, scale and trail activities, and
series event participation. It’s this type of activity that helps the
JConcepts Team strive for new heights in performance while interacting
with the best the hobby has to offer.
