One of the best ways to sling the dirt and sand is with the new Animal tire by JConcepts. The large height, paddle rear tire is the go-to item for blasting the dunes, cutting through the dust, sand, and dirt while spraying rooster-tails against the competition. The perfect tire to fit vehicles such as the X-Maxx, and XRT is 1:1 inspired to provide best in class looks and performance. The JConcepts carcass has strategically placed upper paddles with a scoop shape to thrust into any patch of terrain and blow right through it. One of the details is the smooth carcass with mock cut-off paddle sections which is a common sight in 1:1 tires.
The tire carcass is built on a large and rugged carcass where the beads provide hole locations to lock the position with the Hazard wheels. The tires have heavy inner x-bracing, sidewall support ribs and blocking to help minimize expansion. The stance makes high-speed runs and turns possible and the race enhanced compound grips to just about any bashing surface imaginable. The tall paddle tread provides a lot of life in multiple conditions and the detail in the tread helps versatility of the tire. Bold tire lettering on the outside of the tire gives a high impact look and authenticity exclusive to JConcepts.
The pre-mounted Animal tire is mounted with open cell inserts for versatility and dependability. The multi-piece Hazard wheel is secured to the tire with dependable hardware via bead lock rings on the inside and out. The pre-installed hardware fits together tightly and bites through the tire bead to hold the hefty assembly in position. Two hex adaptors are included to accommodate different vehicles on the market. The installed option with 24mm hex installs directly to the popular vehicles such as the X-Maxx and XRT. The optional hex will need to be placed to fit on the Arrma Kraton 8s.
Large scale RC vehicles have grown to new heights. Dependable combinations, explosive power, and thrills pack a serious punch and together with JConcepts accessories, provide a winning combination.
