My go to carpet tire. IMO these have had the most amount of grip of anything else I've used. They have a long life span compared to some of the competitors. Also, being non directional makes it easy to swap the tires back and forth to even the wear.
I like them better than fuzzbites on carpet . Shipping was insanely fast
They’re basically a fuzz bite in a softer compound. I really like them when combined with a mezzo. 5 star performance and 3 star for longevity.
Excellent carpet tire for my 1/10 buggy! Needed a few laps to break in.
Four verified owners rate these front 2WD buggy tires highly, averaging about 4.75 out of 5. Reviewers agree they grip well on carpet, with one describing them as the best grip they have used. They are often compared favourably with Fuzzbites, with one saying they prefer them and another describing them as a softer-compound equivalent. Reviewers note they are non-directional, which allows swapping sides to even out wear, and one mentions they need a few laps to break in. Longevity is the main point of disagreement: one reviewer praises a long lifespan, while another rates durability only three out of five. Shipping speed was also praised.
