Duratrax has a new line of wheels and tires out for RC crawlers, dirt oval fans and 1:8 scale owners!
The crawler section definitely has the most to offer, showing 8 new tread patterns and 2 new wheels (1.9″ and 2.2″). The tires have unique treads to tackle just about any terrain you can throw at them, and each has their respective name labeled in white on the sidewall. They come mounted or unmounted, depending on how you want to buy them. You can see the full line here: http://www.duratrax.com/tires/crawler.html.
The second offering is a tire that’s been converted from a SC tire to a dirt oval tire. The Bandito SC-M has more grooves with a shallower depth for better grip on hard dirt or clay. They are available in C2 and C3 compounds, mounted or unmounted. You can check those out here: http://www.duratrax.com/tires/1-10shortcourse.html
Finally for you 1:8 scalers, Duratrax has modified the look of their 1:8 line with some new black or chrome multi-spoke wheels. They come in a 4-pack or individually, unmounted or glued to a set of Bandito tires in C2 or C3 compounds. You can see them here (near the bottom of the page): http://www.duratrax.com/tires/1-8buggy.html
Looks like lots of cool kicks coming from the Duratrax team.
