JConcepts continues to introduce new 1/10 scale off-road products to the market with the launch of the 1.9? Tusk tire. Following the success of class 2 tires like the Landmines, the team focused on a new design, drawing on insights gained from driving, terrain testing, and the valuable contributions from the extensive development time of the JConcepts team. The size of 4.75? was maintained, making it a scale-legal tire, but the tread design was modified.
The Tusk has an animal instinct that allows it to navigate through terrain thanks to its robust lugs and sidewall reinforcement. The center of the tire starts with a V-shaped lug featuring multiple lateral steps for added grip, while the green rubber compound flexes and adapts to the terrain. The design team added large staggered traction bars on the sides, continuing the V-pattern. While the shorter version connects to the central lug, the longer version fills a gap underneath and is positioned near the tire's centerline.
The mirrored design of the tire creates a flawless aesthetic, and the alternating rows provide a staggered height effect. JConcepts has added lugs on the sidewall for better grip and to navigate obstacles, and has shaved a small portion of rubber for increased flexibility. All traction bars and lugs feature cuts and grooves on top to break up flat surfaces and create small edges that allow for the evacuation of dirt, dust, and other debris. The Tusk logo on the sidewall is highly detailed, with information about the name, size, and identification.
The flexibility of the green compound, combined with the lug arrangement, provides the tire with excellent traction while maintaining scale and high-performance appearance. Its overall height offers great ground clearance for class 1 vehicles, adapting to a wide variety of terrains. The tires include a medium hardness open-cell foam insert, capable of supporting the super soft compound, yet flexible enough for uneven terrains.
