Product Description

Landmines, Green Compound, Fits 1.0" #3446 Shuttle/TRX4M

The J Concepts - designers have opened the imagination to create the Landmines 1.0" performance scale tire in a 57mm outside diameter. The Landmines, developed for smaller scale trucks after tuning and analysis, have reached the summit and are now available to the crawling enthusiast. Available unmounted for customer versatility.

The team spent considerable time with the split-block center design which has been sliced, stepped, and recessed for flexibility and contortion over sharp, loose, and polished surfaces. The Landmines have alternating solid and cavity pads which are ideal for transitioning from smooth dirt or pavement into dirt, mud, and rocky terrain. Moving toward the edges of the carcass, the scaling tire has horizonal grippy pads with edge and channels to provide additional forward climbing bite.

Down within the tread, a lightning pattern, knob plots and connector bars pull the design together to work together at shallow and deep sinking positions. Once power is applied to the vehicle, the tread spacing opens which allows for deep digging, making it a great working tire in dirt and muddy conditions. As the tread rolls down the sidewall, a whole new course of tread and side-lugging is applied. A grippy radial ring provides a consistent rubber contact patch in pinched conditions while in the vertical plane, new traction bars alternate between angular and island mapping for squeeze grip.

The major flexibility of the super soft green compound combined with the lug arrangement gives the tire a grippy feel but still maintains that all important scale and performance look. The overall 57mm height provides plenty of ground clearance for an abundance of terrain and bossed side-wall logos read with beauty and balance. The tire size is compatible with and fits the TRX-4M scale truck and works and clears hard body shells like stock tire size combinations. The tires include a soft open cell foam insert capable of standing up to the compound but flexible enough for sharp terrain.
