Link for Knockoff Badlands?
 

I remember people used to pick up these awesome tires off this one seller on fleabay....

I remember, vividly, something like Yoko or something, badlands, preglued, obviously fake, but real cheap, and wore less than the real badlands..

I think I read somewhere that someone recommended it more than the real ones! :neutral:

Anyone have a link?

Found it on fleabay right after I posted.

AWESOME!
xD

Im going to pick up a set for my E-8 for just bashing around with. Should work great for that.

Don't buy all of em!

I need a set... Maybe, need a new set for my grass use.

hi guys,

I found the badlands poor for traction in anything other than mud/very wet soil, they are way to hard a compund to be effective.

The Racing Spikes however are awsome, great traction & wear for the price!!!!

I've bought several sets from Suprasales over the years,great prices and FAST shipping.
Tires are always worth the price paid.

are you talking about the original or knockoff badlands?

I'm sure he's speaking of the Knockoffs because the compound is much firmer than the Proline rubber

I wish they made knock off badlands in Truggy size and maybe even 2.2 size.

The link supplied above is for truggy ? 17mm hubbed w/wanna be Badlands

So the badlands aren't great?

The Proline badlands are excellent Basher tires, The Suprasales Badlands are almost identical except they are way cheaper and the rubber is a firmer compound.(They'll last longer).

Okay, so the SupraSales Badlands are worth the money?

I do not personally own a set but I have several other sets of tires I bought from them and the qaulity and service was top notch. I'd go out on the limb and say yes,you'll be happy with your purchase. Especially for thr price compared to Prolines and rims then glueing them ? Ultimately it's your decision and your $$

Alright, thanks.

Though, I think I'm gonna stick with something else...
Do you recommend a specific tire/rim combo from them?

17mm, most likely will be on my ESavage or EMaxx...

I have the knockoff Badlands for my 1/8 buggy and they are excellent tires, IMO.

The rims, on the other hand, are crap. I've shattered two rims just racing. Yikes!

Oh....

I've heard the glue job was more than excellent though! :intello:

IMO the knock-off badlands are too hard of a compund to grip effectively on anything other than super soft surfaces.

I ran both the original Proline Badlands and the knock-off badlands (with 17mm adapters) on my Rustler VXL and the Proline's were awsome on every surface, and the knock-offs really sucked.

Go for the racing spikes (I found them fantastic) or spend the extra $$$ and buy what SupraSales call the "PRO" version which they call a soft compund.

Alright, so these?

I basically need something that will work in low cut grass (well... Medium kind of), pavement, and dirt.

Will work great offroad, can't comment on how long they will last on pavement however.

Alright, what's the wear time approximately on offroad?

I should note that I have the "Pro" version of the knockoffs, and they work well for me.

pro version...
Link?

They have a different foam in them.

Ahhhh, gotcha, thanks.

Wait, so, if the pro makes the tires better... Would the badlands (or bigblocks) pro version be better? :X Sorry if I'm making you run in a circle!

I wouldnt waste the extra money on them if you just using the for bashing or whatever. Its not going to make that much of a difference.

Alright, thanks..
