| Proline 1.55?
Anyone know if Proline has plans to make a super swamper in 1.55?

When they make a 1.55" wheel they will, they aren't going to make a tire that doesn't any wheels they currently offer.

I doubt it. At this point the 1.55 Hyrax would be made before the TSL, but I don't see that happening at all. 1.55 is a small market.

All I know is Pro-Line plans on producing stuff to appease the scale enthusiasts for sure. Keep your eyes peeled for new things in 2017.

I'd love to see it! Swampers in 4.00-4.15 range. A tire that small on a 1.9 wheel just looks wrong.

Proline has been stepping up. Please stop on the Hyrax. I don't doubt that it hooks up but it's not a scale tire in today's scale world. There is no 1.1 tire pattern remotely close. It is more of a comp tire. Not trying to step on toes guys. Just don't get the hyrax/scale thing at all........

I don't like the look of the hyrax either.

Part of me hates having these because they aren't a replica of a real world tire - I completely get the whole "not scale" argument. The other part of me thinks they actually are pretty badass looking, and why not give them a shot? I ended up with a set of 1.9s and a set of 2.2s. If I end up not liking them, I'll switch them out. But for now, I really like them! I wouldn't put these on my TF2 though, those trucks are all about scale and need a scale tire. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have no doubt the hyrax tire works great, but a hyrax 1.55 wouldn't look right on this truck. But a 1.55 swamper would.

Making your own isnt that hard! These are 3.7" tall and are a simple cut and shut I have some that are stock height with 1.55 beads but Im not that big of a fan of them on such a skinny wheel like the 1.55 wagon. If you have a wider 1.55 wheel they would be awesome. Matt |
