Re: D-Lux makin tires Who's Dlux? |
Re: D-Lux makin tires ya know, Erik Dye. im excited for this one. Sent from my LGMP260 using Tapatalk |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Saw this on FB. They look like tall, skinny comp tires to me which would make sense seeing as DLux is big into that market. Not for me, but still cool to see another tire manufacturer. |
Re: D-Lux makin tires looking forward to this!!!!!"thumbsup""thumbsup""thumbsup" |
Re: D-Lux makin tires They are based off of a custom built tire but built to better specs so the sidewalls won't tear constantly like most tires in such a compound. Shiat is about to get real. :D |
Re: D-Lux makin tires I'll pick up a set.. looks like I'll still have to sand the sidewall to remove that crown. :lmao: Thank D-luxfab. |
Re: D-Lux makin tires https://dluxfab.ecwid.com/#!/Dlux-Tire/p/170347029 Sweet! Expected to see similar. Should be great for me, I want to see how the compound feels!8) |

Yup, skewed and stretched to make the proportions more amicable. |

Re: D-Lux makin tires I have dlux tires and rovers on hand so no comparison needed. The lugs got tweaked a bit to make the proportions correct. The triangle lugs are a bit larger than they were on the rover too. |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Any info about the compound? |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Tires bought. Thanks Erik I could have done without the Dluxfab.com on the sidewall. I didn't expect tires from dluxfab I thought his picture on FB was blocking out the aluminum tube for his super light axles.. seeing that Jeremy had his super light axles FS a while back... Looking forward to seeing some alum Dluxfab/berg tubes soon. Sent from my SM-A505U1 using Tapatalk https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...1173ccf310.jpg |
Re: D-Lux makin tires I'm admittedly not a comp guy so maybe I'm missing something. He couldn't come up with a new tread pattern? Even if it works well, I'm just surprised he didn't try to improve on a now ancient tread pattern. |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Quote:
If you ran Rovers this Dlux tire might be a good thing. I'm glad Erik keep the tread close to a rover I love my white dot rovers. If you look close Erik did improve the hpi rover even if it's just for the fact no siping or sanding of tread/ sidewalls..Even if it was still a fat tire and not narrow. I personally ran my Rovers full width. But time will tell.. Maybe HPI will want $1.00 from each Tire Dluxfab.com sells.. Or Erik might end up with a court date for Copyright infringement but I'm not a lawyer. ;) Sent from my SM-A505U1 using Tapatalk |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Quote:
These are a split width and the same height that 1.9 rovers and most other comp tires are built to. Most every tread block has been modified in one way or another so they resemble rovers for sure but they ain't the same. |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Quote:
It'll be interesting to see if HPI cares. They seem to have a much bigger problem of just staying alive right now though. Quote:
What I meant is, doesn't he think an all new design could offer better performance than this old design that he borrowed from? Are Rovers still dominating the competition? |
Re: D-Lux makin tires Quote:
Rover tires have been ran at most of the comps I've been to locally and at other larger comp like AZ shootout, 2019 nationals. Rover tires have been on the podium position at said comps I wouldn't say Dominating but still kicking ass and taking names :) Sent from my SM-A505U1 using Tapatalk |
