    Just ordered a set for my new TRX-4 79 Bronco. Gonna paint the lettering white for scale realism. Kind of nervous about mounting the beadlocks to the tires but it's all been a learning experience from the get go. Thanks for posting review!

    Proline uses a double bead. Tricked me up the first time I mounted some. Those go together similarly to the Gmade SR

    I run the proline km3 in G8 compound and they work great. They weren't offered in predator compound when I got mine or I would have got it. Usually can't go wrong with proline tires!

    Flatiron XL, is an epic set of tires!!! The best part is. The faster you spin them, the more traction your going to get!!!

  • @jonthomas8487
    @jonthomas8487 4 года назад +3

    Those are really grippy at least on craggy dry concrete. I’m curious on wet performance though given the more scale tread pattern. Might be good to keep really soft foams in it to let them contort. It’s still side hilling well. Maybe try the Landmine stock foams in them as they are slightly more firm than the Proline stock foams before changing to dual stage

    Joe my brother? Those rims are nice ,aren’t they. I really like those myself. That just raised Opt-3 a notch or 2. And those Tyres will really get soft after break in I’d say. The deflection looked almost perfect . 👍 & I’m liking the double vid days ,btw

    could you test the proline 1.9 boggers next? they are in the g8 compound but they have a massive 5.5 inch diameter as opposed to the regular 4.7/4.8 inch diameter you get with the flat irons etc.. And I think they would do nicely on your capra as although they are tall - they shouldn't upset its balance like the 2.2 tires you tried on it where you had to extend the wheelbase to make it work.
    also: I watched your video where you said you had difficulties with the rockbeast XL tires in their predator compound due to their unique grip style that doesn't quite hook up the way you wanted them to and I was wondering if you would test out the rockbeast XOR as they have a very different 3D tread patter (alot like the pattern on the jconcept landmines but with more lug spacing like the klrm) and they are a little shorter to help with your center of gravity (they do make up for the lack in vertical clearence with their width so they might be a good choice for the superlite).
    love your work and can't wait to see how the KM3 tires stack up to all the other tires!

    Hey I know this is off subject but can you make a more descriptive video about the Titan 775 motor going into a TRX. I watched your video that you did for your friend but it was short 😔. I'm looking to get a TRACTION HOBBY FOUNDER 2 and I want to install a Titan 775 motor along with a evx2. I specifically want to know the the pinion to spur ratio that best fits this type of rig
