The
JConcepts Adventure team dug deep and looked at the tire line-up for
simple yet performing solutions for an existing item in the line-up. The
Scorpios, one of the original crawling tires from the team, has been a
favorite for years, but after a nudge from the development team, has
undergone some changes. A new ground up item has all the functions,
features, and specialty construction as the original but by removing
some elements is pushing the limits once again.
Introducing
Rock Scorpions, a scale looking tread with tall size and profile, jump
out as the most obvious features. Starting by analyzing the tread, the
design team focused on adding a bit more space for grabbing patches and
edges. The padded arrangement of tread makes the tire ideal for
transitioning from sand to dirt, and into slightly wet terrain, the Rock
Scorpions can do it all. The rather scale-looking tire has some
dramatic zig-zag action and with minor relief cuts, contour to very
rugged conditions.
The
traditional 1.9” mounting bead diameter is ready for just about any
wheel in performance-oriented builds, and the 1.5” width is now a new
trend setting design element by JConcepts. Each tread block has finely
cut edges with a healthy radius where the block meets the tire body. The
outermost lug extends down the sidewall to stiffen the upper carcass
and increase the pinch grip. The flexibility of the compound combined
with inner grid ribbing provides support to a purpose-built performance
core.
The
large overall height provides plenty of ground clearance for an
abundance of terrain and sidewall tire lettering featuring brand, type,
and sizing help identify a winner. The tires include a soft open-cell
foam insert capable of standing up to the super soft compound but
flexible enough for sharp terrain. Prepare your rig for competition with
Rock Scorpions from JConcepts.
