I’m in telecommunications osp infrastructure engineering. Also an AMain Hobbies Gold member. This ain’t user error. I’ve got 2 control groups. DO NOT BUY PRO LINE BELTED ANYTHING for summit or like sized rc trucks. Death shake and wobble above 6mph to top speed. Cannot get the screws holding the hub to the rim to torque evenly. They back out and cause worse wobble SHORTLY after true’ing them up and tightening them. The tires mold may be unbalanced. The glue-line might not be equidistant from the center axis, idk but I could not finagle or work these tires mounted on raid rims work at ALL for me. Contacted proline and you can’t even leave a message. Terrible pro-line, amateur hour. Amani hobbies is AWESOME they made it right and offered many options to make it right.
I purchased these for my e revo 2.0. They have crazy grip and fling dirt all over! Theyre like having claws! The stock tires blew from hitting the “70mph”. These are larger in diameter than the stock. You cannot use these off-road with the high speed gearing. I blew 2 ESC’s (1/2 battery each run) before finding out the e revo 2.0 cannot be used off-road with that gearing. I put the stock 54t spur back on and a 13t pinion. In soft sand/short course the combo is pretty fun. Super quick acceleration. The tires do not balloon!
Worked good until probably the 3 or 4th run on them then 3 of the tires started separating from the rim
Reviewers report mixed experiences with the Pro-Line Badlands MX38 HP Belted 3.8" pre-mounted tires on Raid rims. One reviewer, who said they used two control groups, reported severe wobble above about 6 mph on a Summit-sized truck, with hub screws backing out after truing and tightening; they also reported difficulty reaching the manufacturer. Another reviewer praised the grip and dirt-flinging on an E-Revo 2.0, but noted the tires are larger than stock and, combined with high-speed gearing, led to repeated ESC failures before the reviewer changed gearing. A third reviewer reported that three tires began separating from the rim after three or four runs. Reviewers disagree on performance, with one positive and two negative accounts, and the reviews describe different vehicles, so the evidence is limited.
- + Strong grip
- + Good dirt flinging
- + Quick acceleration with suitable gearing
- + Tires do not balloon
- − Wobble at higher speeds on one truck
- − Hub screws back out
- − Tires separated from rim after few runs
- − Larger diameter can overload drivetrain with high gearing
