Ok I've added The HPI Grabbers by request. I have also added a tire that might not be a 100% true comp tire. The Rc4wd 2.2 Rok Lox. They might not be the Best 2.2 Comp Tire, but for a Scale Comp that allows 2.2's. They might be the best. These are the same rubber compound as the X-Locks and the best scale appearance Rc4wd or any other Company has produced yet. IMO .. I will be testing these on my Comp rigs on the same rocks and sections with all the others. Another Video Coming soon.... Chisels Vs X-Locks... |
Pro-Line Chisel's Vs. X-Lock's Chisel's Pro's:
Rc4wd X-Locks Pro's:
Over all Winner between these Two.. X-Locks: Why I choose X-Locks. The X-Locks is a better all around tire flat out. They ran everything the Chisels did and with better control. The X-Locks were more predictable in every thing. I was able to pull ledges with out using Front digs. Where with Chisels I had to use the digs to find traction to get the front to pull up. I believe the X-Locks did so well is a combo between their new Compound the stretchy rubber. Like I've stated in other post. I will be giving the Chisels another go with Panthers F400 Non-Memory foams. These foams maybe what the Chisels need to really wake up and perform how I think they should. Video is uploading now........... |
I had to use my own webiste to host this Video. (Temp) I will load it up on Hobbyzip later.. With Music http://www.jpcustomrcs.com/ChiselsVsXLocks.html No Music http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d1...th_NoMusic.jpg Sorry about hosting all the Videos on different sites. Seems everyone has added Copyright crap on all Uploaded Vidoes. |
Next two I'm Testing will be the White Rovers Vs. Panther..... |

What Combo would you like to see in the Rovers using these Foams. Panthers I will run Panthers F400 Non Memory Foams for this Round of Testing. http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d1...n/CIMG1701.jpg Foams I have to test with... Panther F400 and F500's Pro-Line 2 stage Oversized Foams 5.25in and 6in Memory Makers Crwler1 All three Soft/Med/Firm Mod'd Stock Panthers Pro-Lines Soft White Memory Foams JConcepts Firm Orange Memory Foams |
Looking for input here.. For testing the Rovers and Panthers... I can use all crwler1 foams.. Panthers with (Med inners and Firm Outers) Rovers with (Firm inners and Soft Outers) or (Soft inners and Med Outers) Or I can use the Pro-Line 2 Stage in the Rovers. Temp during testing should be 75 and above... |
IŽd really appreciate you testing the PLs twostage in the Rovers and get your opinion about it. |
Jarod, i would like to see the two stage PLs in the rovers, also how do you think they would work in the X-Locks...? Thanks, Nathan |
I think you need to run the F400 with the Panther.A couple of the local guys are running the F400 in there HB's with great results also. |
Jarrod, you'll have some F400s this week."thumbsup" |

X-Locks..I'll bring the Chisels, but I think I'll run X-Locks for it. It's a creek bed. The X-Locks did really well on this type of rock for me. I'm going to try and mount up some 2.2 Rok Loks and run the Same Course to test them out as well. |
Here are the 2.2 Rok Lox's. I know these are not Comp Tires, but I'm going to throw them in the Mix any way. I know they will be used in 2.2 Scale Comps. So this info will be useful to some. I have these mounted up on JConcepts Plastic Beadlocks. Very nice Combo. These Beadlocks are built tuff and have a very strong hex area. I see no problems in the Future from these. Oh and they are Walker Evans...:) Running Stock Foams with a Very Small Notch out of the Center. The Stock foams seemed pretty good. They are a big improvement over the Foams I got in my X-Locks. I don't suggest cutting the notch out. Leave the Foam uncut and try that first. These tires are going on a Scaler of mine and I wanted more squat from them. http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1730.jpg 5.5in Tall Mounted http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1737.jpg 1-3/4in Wide http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1738.jpg http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1735.jpg If it doesn't rain I will run these on my Comp rig in the same rocks as the others. So everyone can see how they compare. |
Some Group Shots From left to right. X-Locks, Rok Loxs, White Rovers, G8 Chisels, Jconcpets, Panthers, Comp Claws.. http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1739.jpg The Taller Tires http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1741.jpg The Shorter Tires http://i387.photobucket.com/albums/o...d/CIMG1742.jpg |
