This is a set of two Pre-Mounted AKA I-Beam 1/8th scale off-road buggy tires in Super Soft compound. The I-Beam features a dynamic tread pattern that will perform on just about any off-road track. The large center lugs are well suited for strong acceleration, and the position of the "I-Beam" outer portion of the tread alternates to deliver the ideal balance of acceleration and cornering performance.
The “Super Soft” or V compound as is noted in the part number is for cooler conditions when the track is transitioning from wet to a drier hard packed line that is not quite grooved in. Great for winter and early spring racing conditions. Super Soft still retains the relative long lasting wear characteristics that AKA is known for while providing that extra measure of traction for the trickiest of surface conditions.
AKA tires include lightweight, long-lasting contoured foam inserts for a more balanced tire and wheel assembly, which will deliver noticeable performance gains over heavy, out of balance inserts. Reducing rotating, unsprung weight in the tire, insert and wheel produces the biggest performance gains over any other weight reduction.
Designing competition-worthy wheels is a black art, and there’s no two people more practiced in the art than Mark Pavidis and Gil Losi, Jr. The knowledge of both is poured into the design of the AKA wheels for the ultimate balance of durability and flex for maximum performance. Both buggy and truck versions of the AKA wheels (available in white and yellow) feature a larger diameter, which reduces sidewall flex to keep more tread on the racing surface for crisp acceleration and steering response.
Pre-mounted AKA tires use the same tires, wheels and inserts that are available separately. That means you can expect to get the same great performance and all you have to do is install them on your vehicle. The tires will be bonded with the highest-quality CA adhesive available to ensure long–lasting adhesion, giving you the peace of mind that your tires will stay glued to the wheels so you can focus on winning!
