Default How are these tires for 1/8 buggy?

I was browsing around looking for deals, and I believe I came across one. 4 jconcepts goosebumps and wheels for $35. Now I'm still in my beginning stages of my 1/8 buggy so I wanted something cheap. But how are these going to be on a 1/10 hard clay track where most racers recommend using the jconcepts barcodes?

Thumbs up Not too good....

Those tires will work better on loamy or very dusty conditions.
If bar codes work then it is smooth clay surface with little to no dust. Switches by panther, holeshots or inside jobs by proline, losi has a small pin tire that you could get cheap and of course the Bar Codes by J Concepts.
Hope this helps.

Thats a really good deal. Use them outside, then when they are worn they will get decent clay traction. Wish I had a use for them at that price...
