Default Proline Super Swamper 1.9 Tire Review...

Got the new "Proline Super Swamper 1.9" in the mail today.
I will have a better review after testing this week.

Pros:
-Fits my RC4WD beadlocks.
-Super soft tire compond
-Sick tread design


Cons:
-Wish they were a bit taller
-Sidewall design is a little busy




Proline Info:
http://prolineracing.com/tires/inter...r-swamper-1.9/

Under official license from Interco Tire Corporation, Pro-Line is proud to announce the 1.9” TSL SX Super Swamper in the legendary G8 compound.

With almost scale not being acceptable and access to Intercos design data, Pro-Line’s engineering staff have been able to reproduce the Super Swamper in a scale configuration matched by none.

Features:
  • Interco TSL SX Super Swamper replica design
  • Available in G8 (Rock Terrain) compound
  • Memory foam included
What’s Included:
  • Interco TSL SX Super Swamper 1.9" G8 Rock Terrain Truck Tires (2 pcs)
  • Oversized Memory Foam (2 pcs)









Here are they compared to some old Rox Lox's.

Well, I guess I think the 1:1 sidewall is a little busy too then. But don't get me wrong, I love the design.

Nice to see them on a truck, and I think they look perfect as far as the dimension on a wheel.

What's your Yota weighing in at? I'm trying to get an idea of how these tires and foams will hold or squat under my 8 pound flatbed.

The setup I have in the pics are not vented. BTW, my yota is about 11lbs.

I am thinking when I vent the rims, its going to squat pretty good, the foams are a bit soft. But I will now be able to lower my body down, since these tires are a bit smaller.

Yeah, and those are pretty worn out Rox Lox's too. I sure if you but a new Rox Lox next to the super swamper, it would tower of it.

I was really wanting to run these on my 1.9'er, but they are way to short.

They look really good, although not very large I think they might just work on my mog, I'll have to pick some up and give them a testing.

These are just way to small. I guess the 2.2 will not make good TTC tire.

The 1:1's suck compared to a IROK IMO. We'll see how these go compared to a rok lox.

They look cool as hell, but I agree with the comments about being on the smallish side. Maybe if we bug them enough, they'll release a 1.9 XL .
