1/10 Firestorm Runner 2.6” Monster Truck Tires with Inserts, Gold Compound (2)

Introduction

Throughout the years, the kings of the business experimented as much with tires as off-road racers have done during the same time. Without dipping into off-road racing combinations, it requires a lot of creativity to produce new options while keeping in the spirit of traditional monster truck racing. The Runner tire by JConcepts is a concept tire, shaved and lowered tread to offer the smoothest driving surface of all JConcepts monster truck tires.

In the past, the only way to modify scale monster truck tires was to slice and cut by knife, taking up to as much as 40 hours per tire. The JConcepts Runner tire has a completely lowered lug to create the low-profile stance making it desirable on the racing scene. The lugs have a front and rear edge so they can dig in both directions without throwing too much free dirt. The sidewalls have radius upper corners, then chamfered, removing overhung tread to provide a light-weight design capable of driving through high-traction turns with a freeness that helps quicken the rotation.

The wide body look of the carcass fits in with multiple JConcepts tires such as the Racer, Renegades, Launch, and Knobs which can always be used in combinations. The sidewall lettering is one of the most detailed in class boasting information such as branding, sizing, and monster truck specific naming and construction specifications. The Runner tires are available in blue and gold compound and include medium open cell inserts for support and carcass definition. Match with JConcepts #3377 wheels in white, black, gray, or yellow colors to perfectly set off the vehicle.
