    Great series. And you are absolutly right. Tires make the biggest change in performance, as well in 1/1 car world as it is in 1/10 RC cars. And definatly with crawlers and trail driving. Very well explained. Thank you.

    Thanks for the video Francis, very informative as usual without the BS. I watched an earlier video of yours and you were talking about the proline hyrax w/ predator compound and decided that’s what I want for my Gen8. I went down to my local hobby shop to order some and they looked at me like I was crazy, said the hyrax only came in the G8 compound. I said no and made them look it up, low and behold proline had them listed. So got them to order me up a set, they should be here next week. I’ll hit you up on the Gen8 Scout II FB page and let you know how they worked out, but after seeing you do the rebound test I know they’re going to be just what the doctor ordered! Again much appreciated!

      Same here, to me the best overall tyres
      good on the rocks, great in the mudd, they can dig hard but clean the lugs real fast
      Currently use the cheap Austar versions, but will look for the super swampers XL 1.9 sized just for that scale look👍🏻

  • @DFDuck55
    @DFDuck55 5 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Just so you know, the tread "knobs" are called "lugs". I have found that sometimes running my tires backwards is an advantage, especially in certain types of sticky mud. One of my trail rigs came stock with 103mm tall 1.9 tires, they looked out of scale. They rubbed the body, and the center of gravity was too high so it rolled real easy. I replaced them with 96mm tall 1.9 tires. I did lose some ground clearance, but not only did it lower the center of gravity, it allowed me to lower the body which lowered the center of gravity even more. It worked out pretty well on this particular rig because it's more a trail crawler than a rock crawler.

    I’ve been using the Proline BFG Krawler predator compound for the last few weeks, have found them to be and excellent tyre (tire), I think for my local conditions and terrain they are more versatile than the mighty Proline Hyrax. Another tyre (tire) I’ve been enjoying and getting great results from, particularly on my Trx Bronco is the RC4WD Mick Thomson Baja Claw. Stock foams in each of the above mentioned.
    It’s quite warm where I live here in Australia, even through the winter months so we don’t suffer some of the tyre (tire) problems brought on by the cold that you guys in cooler climates have so softness and stickiness even with harder compounds generally isn’t an issue.

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Very good to hear. We only have two outings with the BFG Krawler, Predator compound and were blown away with its mixed terrain, wet and sidehill abilities.

    • @Alan_lay
      @Alan_lay 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The BFG’s seem to be an excellent tyre (tire) so far.
      FYI, when I mentioned using stock foams I was talking about the stock foams that came with the tyres (tires) not the ones that came with the vehicles.
      The Predator compound Krawlers seem surprisingly durable and the lugs are holding up well, the RC4WD Mickey Thompson BAJA Claw don’t show the same durability, the lugs are getting a little torn up from use on the same terrain but they do give excellent grip.
      The next tyre I want to try are the RC4WD Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ 2.2 narrows, for those that don’t know they are a 2.2 tyre (tire) with smaller diameter of around 119 mm (4.7 “) so essentially you should get less tyre (tire) roll when side hilling due to less side wall stretch/flex as the wall height is shorter due to larger wheel diameter with outer tyre (tire) diameter the same as 1.9 size.
      Another FYI, the reason for (tire) in brackets is for the U.S spelling police who don’t realise in other countries we spell it TYRE...😉

    Those directional tires are designed to be self cleaning. Instead of pushing dirt towards the middle. You want them to pusj dirt out of the way to find good ground.

    • @RCReviewChannel

    You forgot to mention side pattern and reinforced sidewalls. Also important factor is depth of tread pattern. Best tread is that which is able to clean itself and don`t bury truck too much, on rock it deforms to adapt to shape of surface, but not deform too much and not grab at all.

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for that.
      For reinforced sidewalls, another approach is to use two stage foam with a stiffer inner foam. A lot of the great climbing tires seem to have really soft sidewalls since they don't know what weight vehicle it will be used for.

    • @Lybra19JTD
      @Lybra19JTD 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@RCReviewChannel that is true, but i use RC as expedition trucks so most of time you need really supporting tire like RC4WD Trailbuster, because Pittbulls are too soft also with 2 stage foams . Also important factor is wide of tire thread, because this is main area where is contact. For example KLR A/T don`t have same wide as KLR M/T

They are also asymetrical when i ride slow the car kind of jumps up and down. When i compared the tires with the spare tire it was tottaly different. The used tires were smaller, a lot smaller than the spare tire. So what do i do now, buy a new tires. I would really appreciate if you answer thanks.

    Two things:
    1. You use the broad term "crawler" while meaning only "scale crawler". My Losi Comp Crawler does just fine with 5.5" tires...
    2. Rotational direction. While the manufacturer has a suggested direction, that might not be the best one based on driving style and terrain. For optimum grip each driver should try both directions, in all four combinations front/rear.

      It all depends on the crawler rigs weight, I only run ruffly $30.00 servos being none of my 1/10 scale crawler rigs are over 3 1/2 lbs. Geez, how many pounds are your rigs that you need that much power out of your steering servos? Its not a crawler like a built Clodbuster with huge tires & wheels is it?

  • @robpracht9303
    @robpracht9303 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think you explained the tire direction wrong.
    Look at tractor tires...profile is pushing the dirt or mud to the outside giving the tire the chance to dig into the dirt or mud to find grip.
    Wrong way is to bring the dirt or mud to the middle grips ..that way the grips get filled up and you get like a slick tire and no grip or digging power at all.

    • @RCReviewChannel
      @RCReviewChannel  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Good point. In the real world, if muddy, you want the dirt/mud to get pushed out for self-cleaning.
      In our experience though for crawlers and no mud, pushing the dirt into the middle works better... as long as it doesn't clog up with mud.

    With tires like iroks, mudslingers and the interco tsl boggers flip them for different terrains like for rocks have the tire so the tread pulls material to the center but for mud and sand flip it so it pushes material to the outside of the tread if that made sense
