| Proline Hyrax vs KM2 vs KM3
I have Proline Hyraxs on my crawler, they perform great, just they don't look terribly scale. I've pretty much worn through them, so I need a new set of tires. I've heard the proline KM2 and KM3 perform pretty well, so I'm trying to decide between them. I know the KX and KM3 are "worse" than the Hyrax, but I'm willing to shave a bit of performance for a more scale look. I would prefer the KM3, the KX tread is too large IMO, but if the KX has a noticeably better performance difference from the KM3, I guess I'll go with the KX. What are the performance differences between the Proline KX and KM3s? I'm run on a lot of rocks and hard dirt, thoughts? Last edited by TITANIUM94010; 07-02-2020 at 02:01 PM. Reason: Mixed up the KO2 with the KX. whup, memory is failing me. |

Did you mean KO2? I think the only KM2's are from Axial. EDIT: never mind RC4WD has them now. What about the Krawler T/A's? those are one of my favorites performance wise. I prefer the Krawlers to the KM3's but I run rock mostly. Last edited by HumboldtEF; 07-01-2020 at 11:11 PM. |

Isn't the KO2 considerably smaller than the KM3? And with less aggressive lugs. I like the KM3 the most (maybe because I have them in predator compound), and as mentioned above the KX Krawlers are fantastic. I haven't tried Hyrax, but I think the others look so much better. If you tend to wear out tires fast, maybe g8 is a better choice than predator? (btw, I think I'm the only one in the world who use the Proline KR2) Last edited by tjohanne; 07-02-2020 at 03:17 AM. |

Just for fun, I think Bfgoodrich goes like this. Correct me if I'm wrong. T/A: traction advantage KO: all terrain KM: mud terrain KX: crawler KR: racing Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Last edited by tjohanne; 07-02-2020 at 07:56 AM. |

If you're crawling mostly rock the BFG Krawlers are the most similar to the Hyrax in traction and performance. In some situations like damp or sandy rock they're actually better than the Hyrax I've found because of having more surface area per lug.

Im an expert at this stuff. I have 2 weeks of crawling experience. The best tires you can get are traxxas canyon trails. They look real and perform great. My advice is totally free. You're welcome |
