Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Tire choice will depend on your build, driving style, and on driving conditions.

For example: I couldn't get away with running Super Swampers on a Class 1 build, and I wouldn't run Mud Slingers on the wet river-rock in my area.

At the end of the day, it's a matter of personal preference.

I run Pit Bull Rock Beasts with stock 2-stage foams. The tires are very soft, with good grip, but my rig is VERY heavy so I might be looking at switching to denser foams.

Proline Hyrax with Proline dual stage foams. I'll put them up against any tire.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Yeah, I've heard a number of folks swear by these..

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

I second this. They turned my Wraith into a friggin goat!!

It's all a matter of what you're into. If you want super scale, go with a scale tire that has great performance. If you don't mind a little less scale, the hyrax tires perform second to none

What's considered scale? I mean in the 1:1 world lot's of things are possible. People custom cut tires all the time. Hyrax could be custom cut tires.

If you are hungup on the scale look then you can try Proline TSL Super Swampers. They are my second favorite tire.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Definitely the Hyrax for me as well. They've proven superior over a broad range of choices in straight-line traction and climbing ability on any rig I've put them on.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Well I tried the Hyrax out for a few months and wound up not liking them, I felt the siping was letting them down (where I drive at least). My current favorite are the Proline Krawler T/A's

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

In what kind of terrain were they not living up to your expectations where the Krawlers are?

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

mostly rock, I used them on a quite heavy TRX-4 so it could be that the foams weren't a good match though they were the CI dual stage foams stiff in the rear medium up front.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

I run / ran the Hyrax on my SCX10, with CI Lil Nova Med Fr / Firm Rr foams. I bought the Austar Hyrax knock-offs for my 2 boys' SCX10s, running same foams. I was surprised at the knock-off's performance. They went anywhere my truck did. Just something to think about, as they're cheap.

I recently got Proline TSLs from my SCX10, just cause I wanted to try them. This time I went with Duece's Wild XL foams. They seem to do just as good as the Hyrax did, but I've not taken them on a true test and ran the same trail back to back with each.

I was impressed enough with the Austar knock-offs, that I bought a set of their TSL SX knock-offs to run on my TRX4. Still building it, so haven't ran them yet.

ETA - this is all terrain conditions, rock, mud, water, hard pack, loose pack, etc

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

That's the first bad word I've ever seen spoken about the Hyrax.

The Krawlers, which have more surface area, would definitely do better on clean, dry, and smooth rocks than Hyrax. But throw in any debris on the rocks and I'd give the edge to Hyrax.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Yeah I know its heresy, I should have said the Hyrax are good tires just not my favorite.

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

Ain’t nuthin wrong with a display of heresy now and again

Re: Best 1.9 tires
 

I need a tire for everything. I like the stock ones ,but I'm upgrading rims so if I mess up taking the glue off the rims I wanna be ready. thx for the help guys.
