Those Dick Cepek FC2's look good, better than that other brand's licensed version. If they're 4.2-4.4", I'll have to buy a set.

Nice! Hopefully they are in the size ranged that TheLetterJ mentioned.

The other tires look like Landmines. Maybe they're smaller Landmines or 2.2's?

Not sure if I'll buy them because I just don't love JConcept's rubber compound. Although, to be fair, it's been a while since I used one of their tires and I haven't ran my Landmines yet.

Is it wrong I sat next to the Jconcepts booth all day at USTE before I noticed they had some new tires?




The Bounty Hunters are 3.9ish inches tall and have a Dick Cepek-esque tread. The Jconcepts rep said they tried to get Dick Cepek licensing but they couldn’t get DC to make a deal. They others are 4.19 Land minds which are really cool as well, I think they look even cooler shrunk down.

I have a set of the Jconcepts Landmines. Great tires. Lots of grip in the dirt and on the rocks. Not a mud tire, but it will get you out of most spots with some throttle.

Has anybody noticed the first JConcepts released the K2500 body, painted in brown and gold, then hinted at the "Colt" wheels, and now these new "Bounty Hunter" tires which are copies of the old Dick Cepek tires that were on a certain TV show truck, and even mounted on Chrome "Colts"?

I wonder if they'll release a "Stunt Man" front winch/brush guard assembly next?

Somebody at JConcepts is a big Fall Guy fan.

I'm in the process of building a Fall Guy replica on a Barrage chassis. I may need to build another one on a full size platform.

i would love to build a fall guy replica on a TF2 chassis and truck bed/cab converted blazer hard body (mod19 pieces... pretty sure he even has the GMC parts).
what are those "colt" wheels?? i don't see those on jconcepts site.

anyway neat tires. nice to have more choices in the class 1 and under category.

The Colts showed up on the press release for the Creep body:
JConcepts New Release – JCI Creep 12.3″ Wheelbase Body – JConcepts Blog

Those are in black, but you can clearly see that they're modeled after the chrome wheels on the Fall Guy truck.

On the Bounty Hunters pic above, you can see that they're mounted to what appears to be chrome Colts.

Nice looking tires. Looks like I'll have to make a tiny tire build sooner or later.

I'm just not sure how a tiny tired 1.9 will look with the K2500 body. The K2500 body on a 12.3 wheelbase works out to just about a 1:10 scale, which puts those 1.9s at 19", which would look stupid on a full sized old square body. If they come out with these tires in 1.7" I think it would nail the scale look, but I don't see JConcepts getting into that.

4.19" Landmines and 3.93" Bounty Hunters have been released from JConcepts. They oddly come with star cut foams. Welcome to 2005 y'all.

Got notification from RPP that they are there. Now we need a report on how they perform. Personally a 4.19 is too big for my application but the Bounty hunters look good.
