tires on slick wet rocks?

[marzzz23]

Okay I searched but couldn't find much.........for 2.2 what tires do you guys think work best on wet rocks, say if there were rain showers during a comp. I have tried Losi's and badlands, losis are ok, badlands are horrible ifits wet. so what has anyone had luck with?

Mashers.......

You know what my opinion is Dave.... Claws.....I know, I know, you don't like them :-P They work just as well for me, wet or dry.

Come on Nathan....

...are you serious? Ive never seen Claws work wet. Maybe you guys have sticky water out there in the deserts of Washington.

Seriously, they work for me, wet or dry. At a comp last fall on the coast in the rain, I had to run first on a course, and I was the only person that I saw, that was able to dig....uphill on this one particular gate.

tanis. i went to the last orcrc comp at lucia and i used mashers m3 and they worked really well and i saw some guys struggle with the claws in the wet. i dont know if it was truck setup or what but some did good some did bad with both tires. i think its all about the driver and setup.

Both Claws and Moabs work great wet around here. I thought the M2K's sucked when it was wet.

That was because you drug sand all over the course for all the others to deal with

Most tires will work if you can spin'em fast enough.

IMHO...
Moabs suck when they are wet.

Mashers work great when wet.

Claws work when wet if there's no dirt to load them up with.

Badlands seem to hold there own so far when damp.

Lizards make good chew toys for the dogs.

I'd like to try the Hammers and Flatirons soon.

It's true, truck setup makes a big difference on how much traction is getting to the ground.
Last month at Deception, I made the Bonus gate right after soaking my whole truck in that pond at the bottom of it. I also saw Jer make that climb too, I think he was running Badlands, but I believe he managed to avoid the pond before the climb.

...I don't remember any sand at 3friends though, but I'll roll with it:-P:-P.
