Truggy tires are naturally almost twice the price but they last twice as long also. As long as you are not buying really small pins like holeshots, gridirons or gators you would be amazed at how much longer a set of truck tires lasts over buggy. I have a set of Truggy X-cons from Duratraxx that have about 10 races on them and still look good. Truggy tires are a larger initial investment but work out to be cheaper in the long run.

Ive been running louise tyres for over 2 years now, the wheels have all been revised to a new design as of july last year and are now stiffer and good quality, I always use premounts and never had an issue.

They are great tyre wear and I only use two tread patterns now alter testing all the range, I use Vipers in soft for dry tracks and B-Grooves in super soft for damp and wet tracks, I can use a set of grooves over 4 events but in dry weather I generally use a set of vipers over 1 or 2 events

I like the Duratrax Shotgun / Louise Maglev tire. Very smooth and easy driving tire that doesn't catch ruts very much on a rough track. I like it where Calibers would be used.

Our pre mounts (all original older wheels and foam style) tend to have about one sidewall tear per four. Juts seems to be a bit of a weak spot in all the high speed, banked corners that we have. The performance of the tires itself are excellent though, especially since they are sold at only 2/3rds of the price of aka/proline/JC.

My only wish is that they had a Bowtie / IBeam styled tire.
