Default What I'd Like To See From Proline

I would like to see their Dirty Harry Buggy Tire transformed into a crawler tire. M2 or M3 compound on the tread, slightly firmer on the sidewall. Same tread pattern but with a little more void area, somewhat like the LST tires. 6.5 inches tall with a decent sidewall made for maxx sized wheels.

A 7 inch tall version of this tread pattern.

Yeah I saw those a month or two ago. Just waiting for someone to try em out and see how they work. I don't like being the guinea pig on new products because i'm poor. I also had an idea to use mulchers with air (or imex step dawgs in that pic). it would make them taller and i think they would perform pretty well even though they can't conform as much with air than they can normally.

That would be a kick ass tire. Especially on low traction courses.

I think something like this with a little more void might work well


Or this maybe


Either or,make them so the treads go down the sidewalls damn near to the wheels. I'd like a 7" or 7.5" version myself,big enough for decent ground clearence under the axles and small enough to turn decent with the standard 1:10 scale high torque servo's.
