    Now, THIS is how a tire comparison is done! Glad to see that you kept the setup similar and used a foam that is popular and readily available (would have preferred CI foams so you could adjust foam size but nit picking). Thanks for the video! 👍

    Great shootout Logan! I'm excited to see how the 5.25" cut-n-shut Krawlers stack up. I've run the Pitbulls and they work great, but I've yet to find a tire that beats your cut-n-shut Krawlers in my area (lava rock and basalt with lots of loose dirt and sand in between).

    When those Pit Bulls come back in stock on AMain, I will grab a set to try. Right now I'm having great success with those new Vanquish VXT2's (1.9). It'll be time to finally install those Traxxas links too.

    Great comparison. i appreciate the amount of time it took to perform, video and edit this test. My experience has been this with my Capra; First, the stock Nitto tires aren't horrible but both my Pitbull Growler A/T 1.9s and RC4WD Mickey Thompson Baja Pro Xs are better in every way. I have the growlers on my Gen8 V2 and it climbs like a goat now. The RC4WD Baja Pro Xs are very soft and the outer lugs do fold over when under heavy load. That said, they still climb a smidge better than the Pitbulls. Don't laugh but I inadvertently bought 2.2" Pro-Line Mickey Thompson Baja Pro Xs and they are just too big for the Capra so I stuck them on my highly modified Danchee Ridgerock (my first crawler) and it climbs like a Ninja now. Simply remarkable! The added ground clearance didn't seem to affect my CG at all. I have 1.9 Pro line MT Baja Pro Xs arriving tomorrow and I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform on the Capra. Thanks again for the great content!

      @@westdesertwheeler Logan, just a quick follow up on the Pro line MT Baja Pro X's in 1.9" size. I have one session on them in 34 degree temps on granite and quartz rocks....and they are fantastic. They outclimbed the Pitbulls and the RC4WD Pro Xs. Not by much, but they certainly did better, and in cold temps no less. The slightly stiffer lugs bit in and drug the Capra up and over ledges that I've never been able to get over before. All the listed tires are great and I plan to wear them all down into slicks;-)

But my lcg loves the rc4wd pro x’s. Great video man keep up the great work/content Also I run priceys custom crawler shocks. And my Capra is stretched front and rear with priceys high clearance links.. and the traxxas rod ends. But also depends on terrain.. and I’m at a 80mm droop. Right now the Capra has the og hb rovers (white dot) and I’m running squid’s inserts.

    Logan, love how informative and entertaining your vids are! This is exactly what I needed. I pilfered the 1.9 wheels off my Capra, to use on my UTB18 (baby cap) leaving me with 2.2 to use for the big guy. Have been trying to find a good size 2.2 and the Pit Bulls fit the bill perfectly, and apparently rock. Have you done anything with your UTB18 yet? Would love to see some of your magic worked there! Cheers!

  • @braidendespain28
    @braidendespain28 Год назад

    In fairness on that one ledge climb at 16-19 minutes roughly, the pit bulls climbed using the right wall slightly, and hit the top ledge in the crack just right to go right over, the other tires when they hit the exact same line using the right wall a little they seemed to climb up just the same.. would have been interesting to see if the pit bulls could climb it in the left face only, not using the right wall/crack.

    Hi Logan great video as usual. Advice please. Here in uk I am running my TRX4 sport ( with mods you recommended) on sandstone. My Proline trenchers g8 are great when dry but do clog easily when stone becomes damp and loose. What would be your first choice in these conditions please? Proline are always my go too simple because of availability in UK.
    Aside comment, I have a note on the bottom of my rig “ keep the rubber side down”!
    Kind regards

    Question on tires..the rocks you crawl on are very high grip. Generally, would you have similar results in a "slicker" rock formations? I guess my question is if Tire A is better than B and C on this rock formation would Tire A still be the better than B and C in a different type of rock?

      @chevyon37s 7 месяцев назад

      Can. Depends on how old, and how they were stored. Old dry tires will certainly have less traction. However stored in a cool dark place like a basement they’ll stay great for years. I have a set of RC4WD gladiators (yea the Nitto trail grappler looking ones they no longer make) that are at least 9 years old and they still have great traction. Yeah probably not quite as good as they were say 5 years ago as I didn’t store them the best (hot garage for a year or two) and one shows dry rot cracks but they still work well.
