Very good tyre pattern for loose dirt Included foams are garbage you’ll need to purchase an alternate foam.
This is the best tire for your buggy if you like driving/racing in "real" dirt. It is very consistent, lasts a long time, and provides good grip in the loose stuff.
As others have said, it's a good tire for loose dirt. Others have also said the foam isn't all that great and I'd concur. Not sure why as other proline and jConcepts foam does okay, but both pairs I've glued up need the foams replaced. I had thought that because I use them when the track is damp (never wet or muddy) that maybe the moisture was doing in the foam, but reading other reviews now I'm not sure. A replacement foam recommendation would be handy from a reviewer...
So good.. These hold up for ages, have excellent grip in loose soil especially if there's a hard pack underneath. Surprisingly, they don't hold much dirt in the grooves. The edge of the tread bite is very sharp and stays sharp. Very tempted to see a full set of these on my B74.1D The foam included is packing material, at best.. I immediately swapped it for a denser(still white foam) JConcepts insert
Amazing tires, but they need closed cell foams. Most closed cell foams can be harvested from worn tires though, so its not a recurring cost, but definitely something to consider. Normally I would mark off a star for the low quality foams included, but these tires are just too amazing. Perfect for packed dirt, they provide excellent grip, but have large enough lugs that you don't start sheering them off immediately if you are running on a rough surface. These are now definitely my go to tire for dirt, I hope they continue to last as amazingly as they have through the first couple packs.
Reviewers broadly agree these 2.2" rear buggy tires perform well on loose dirt and packed dirt, with good grip, a sharp tread edge that holds up, and long wear. Several note they hold little dirt in the grooves. The main recurring complaint is the included open-cell foam inserts, which reviewers describe as poor and recommend replacing with closed-cell or denser foams from other brands. One reviewer mentions a variant with a different suffix and one suggests a re-sealable bag would be useful, but these are minor points. Reviews are consistent in tone and most are verified or detailed.
