Tread Design
Elevated performance and aggressive looks are the name of the game for these Dirt Claw 2.8″ tires. These tires are designed to rip up soft/hard dirt, light sand, light mud, gravel, and anywhere else your off-road adventure takes you. These tires use a deep, open lug design with a “V” pattern every other lug. This Open-Lug design helps keep dirt out of the tread to help ensure maximum traction in soft dirt. Compared to other off-road RC tires, these tires feature lugs molded to the sidewall ensuring maximum grip when cornering. Large sipes in the tire help keep the tire cool while also allowing dirt and water to evacuate around the rubber quickly. While, yes, this is an off-road tire, UpGrade RC has designed it in a way that maintains On-Road characteristics.
Compound
Made from a durable compound, these tires are extremely soft and allow for good traction through rough terrain. While soft, and unbelted, these tires balloon very little on 2S and 3S. This ensures the tires stay flatter to keep the traction high at speeds. Upgrade RC tire compounds to ensure the tires will give you a true bashing experience!
5-Star Wheels
Upgrade RC designed a tire to elevate RC bashing, but they didn’t stop there. The 5-Star Wheels are made from a firm composite that allows for just the right amount of wheel flex for stability and traction. The hex of these wheels is quite special. Out of the package, the wheel will have a 17mm hex and 3 different adapters. These adapters include a 14mm, 12mm wide, and 12mm narrow hex. This ensures that these wheels will fit a wide range of vehicles giving you a wheel and tire combination ready to get out and play!
