Nice.. They look a bit higher than the Komodo tires. Perhaps a nice compromise. Proline is working hard to make new products lately.

Finally! The Crime Fighters are one of the best rubbers for buggies.
The Bow Ties got company, yay!

The only thing that would turn me away from these are the super soft rubber which means they wear easy. I have heard release dates from mid july to new week. I'm still waiting for the 23mm standard size velos to come out. I preordered both of them from a main hobbies. I can't wait.

so what did you order jared? the crimefighter MTs and standard velos? thats awesome. you know who will have to try them out:D

RC-Monster Mike 06.17.2005 06:26 PM

You can bet I will stock these crime fighters when they become available as well. i am always a suckers for a low weight monster tires, especially on ethat works (as someone already said, the crimefighter seem to work most everywhere on a 1/8 buggy, so the monster version should be ideal).

now that my truck is going on a deit, these tires are a must. i cant wait to try them. when is proline gonna come out with 23mm standard offset?

With those small tire diameter you don't need a 23 mm adaptor, because the stress is much lower.

Possible so, but you havent seen what emaxx4190's truck does to helpless non 23mm tires. a full set of revo tires...demolished, regular 40 series bow ties either stripped out or rounded through. lol you are probably right though there wont be as much stress on the tires so they will be less likley to break.

The adapters are the only parts that I don't have dace everything else that dace makes for the t-maxx is on my truck, so I'm just going to run them so I can say I have a full DACE truck. You are right your don't neccesarily need the 23mm, but it doesn't hurt to have the extra protection.

No, an overkill in strength doesn't hurt.. they don't weight much either.

Those REVO rimms are known for the weak hexes. I normally glue my hexes into the rimms or use two screws that got thru the rimm. I really, really don't understand why they even made the large MT wheels with 14 mm hexes.. It is a weak link.. Proline rimms however are the toughest i met till so far.. with the 14 mm hex. (stablemaxx titans) and to continu the offtopic syndrome; do those 23 mm velocity rimms flex as much as the older 40 serie dishes? (those had the bad habbit to stay bent as well..)

RC-Monster Mike 06.19.2005 12:40 PM

The stablemaxx titans are made by RPM. I haven't tried the new 40 series myself, either. I stopped running 40 series when I ran into the "wobble" problem!
