TUSK 2.2″ – 5.25″OD

JConcepts continues to muscle new scale off-road items into the market with the introduction of the Tusk 2.2” for class 3 competition. After successful class 2 tires such as the Landmines and Tusk, the team focused on a design with learned information by driving, crawling, and important input from a heap of development time by the JConcepts team. For class 3, the team used the 5.25” overall diameter size, making it an approved and scale-based tire, but with the tread development known to perform.

The Tusk has an animal like instinct while it makes its way over terrain with hefty lugs and sidewall support. The center of the tire starts with a V-shaped lug with multiple steps to the sides for additional grip while the green compound rubber flexes and contours to the landscape. The design team added large, staggered traction bars off the side continuing the V-shape pattern and while the shorter version steps in conjunction with the center lug, the longer version fills a void underneath and meets up near the center line of the tire.

The mirrored aspect to the tire lays out beautifully and alternating rows provide a staggered height affect. JConcepts has added sidewall lugging for pinch grip and gap crawling while also allowing for increased flexibility. All traction bars and lugging have relieved cuts and slots on the top to split up the flat surfaces for additional little edges for light dirt, dust, and debris. The sidewall lettering is highly detailed on the Tusk with naming, sizing, and identification.

The flexibility of the green compound combined with the lug arrangement gives the tire a grippy feel but still maintains the all-important scale and performance look. The overall height provides plenty of ground clearance for class 3 vehicles over an abundance of terrain. The tires include a medium open cell foam insert capable of standing up to the super soft compound but flexible enough for sharp terrain.

Look for genuine JConcepts logos, lettering, packaging, and rubber compounding before any purchase. Look for reputable dealers and distributors and demand authentic products. The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported, and developed by professionals with style and authenticity. JConcepts is, World Proven Innovation and Design – since 2003.

SCORPIOS 2.2″ – 5.25″OD

JConcepts unveils an all-new 2.2” all-terrain scaling tire from their design department especially for class 3 crawler truck competition. The Scorpios, scale looking tread, extra tall size, and profile, jump out as the most obvious features. Starting by analyzing the tread, the design team focused on a closely knit tread and arranging them in a pattern closely resembling a 1:1 scale tire. The padded arrangement of tread makes the tire ideal for transitioning from the hard road to dirt and then into rocky and uneven terrain. Once power is applied to the vehicle, the tread spacing opens which allows for some deep digging making it a great working tire in dirt and muddy conditions.

The new tire is designed for the incredible and extremely capable class 3 vehicles which top out at the 5.25” overall size diameter. Each tread block has finely cut edges with a healthy radius where the block meets the tire body. Each block features slight cuts on top to open and create some sling space while the outer most lug extends down the sidewall to stiffen the upper carcass and increase the pinch grip. The flexibility of the green compound combined with the close arrangement gives the tire a grippy feel but still maintains all important looks.

The large overall height provides plenty of ground clearance for an abundance of terrain and internal grid ribbing helps maintain its upright structure during hard loads and on power bursts. The tires include a medium open cell foam insert capable of standing up the super soft compound but flexible enough for sharp terrain. Look for genuine JConcepts logos, lettering, packaging, and rubber compounding before any purchase. Look for reputable dealers and distributors and demand authentic products. The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported, and developed by professionals with style and authenticity. JConcepts is, World Proven Innovation and Design – since 2003.
