No not at all. I just think they are more scale than most tires and work great too

Ran them today on my daughters mostly stock creeper. I'm a scale guy and REALLY want these in 1.9's 4.5 inches tall (and wider than rox lox) PLEASE!!! Unbelivable tire! Wet rock and wet and muddy tires that need different foams and it drove up it like a paved highway! They clean out fast too! I can't wait to see how they do with better foams...

I ran mine today on my losi with nova foams at a comp and they worked great. Until I twisted and broke a v2 axle shaft because of the great bite these tires have .

Nova's foams work great in mine. Got to run 3 courses plus some playing on the rocks tonight. I'll post up some cell phone pics later.

BTW, in the pic below, I had to jump the truck just a little so the front tires would catch the lip. I was then able to front dig and drag the rest of the truck up over the ledge until the back tires were right at the top. Throughout the climb, the sidewalls in the front tires were wrinkled like a set of panthers and the tires just stuck to the rocks.

I'm very happy with these and can't wait to compare them to the Sedonas.

I have way too much $$$ wrapped up in this truck to run it in the rain for "fun". If it's at a comp, that's one thing.... For fun, that's another

Mine are on order too. Am excited to get them. Now I have to figure out foams. I know they are still new, but is the concensus so far that the nova foams are looking to be the best option for these tires?

nova's are the best for any tire, IMO.

Did you order 4 sets or 4 packs? You may want to call Jim Ash at 800.645.2006 and verify your order.
