Losi Street Pre-Mounted 1/8 On-Road Tires (2) (Yellow)

I recently bought an 1/8th scale buggy, EB48.3, grabbed a set of these Losi street tires to do some break in runs on concrete around my property, just to break in the diffs and get comfy with the new kit. After the build of the buggy I brought it to my local track, Nor Cal Hobbies, medium sized indoor clay track, fairly high bite. Although I had bought some Typo's and Electrons I opted to make the first few battery packs with these Losi tires to see how they worked, I was curious if they were anything like the Proline Prime's. To say the least I was blown away by the massive amount of traction I had, had to drop a few mm ride height as the buggy kept getting up on two wheels on our high speed sections and was almost impossible to get the back end of the buggy loose, it just stuck to the track.

I will be buying some more sets of these as they are too well priced and offer good traction on indoor damp clay. I do use Liquid Wrench penetrating spray as a tire prep and it turns these tires pretty gummy.

A good tire set at a reasonable price. It's a pre-mount and the tire did not separate from the rim during scrub-in. That's a good thing. I recommend purchase of this tire for any on-road excursions you plan for your off-road 1/8 buggy.

Fitting up Losi on-roads, I hot-lapped my MBX7 at Gulf Coast Speedway, Texas. It's a national-level on-road track with lots of twists and turns and a brutal back-straight. The Losi's scrubbed in well and held to an unprepared asphalt surface well. They survived kissing the bang boards with no apparent damage. I did not use tire sauce. Losi chooses to vent the wheel with two largish holes rather than vent the tire. Not my preference, but it seems to work well for this application. Wheel tightens down firmly with the standard Mugen wheel nuts and does not work loose during hot laps.

On the starter box, one tire looked like it might be out of balance, but it never displayed any adverse habits during scrub in. Later in the session, that was gone. I'm satisfied with the Losi 1/8 on-road and it's now my standard-A tire for when I run my MBX7 on-road.

Great tires! Nice hard compound they have well outlasted my expectations. Always hated choosing which dirt tires were the most worn to take to a parking lot for tuning.

I grabbed a set of these at my LHS so I could break in my Mugen without destroying my Off-road tires. I'm glad I did, because that MBX6R & Nova P5 would have annihilated anything else, by now! They have the right amount of bite on asphalt, allowing me to make controlled slides, drifts, and steering. I don't know how you can go wrong for $15 with pre-mounted wheels!

I'm also running these on an 8.2e. They are really awesome. Sure, driving an 1/8 buggy in the street isn't nearly as exciting as running at the track, but top speed runs are always fun. Plus, these let me test and tune my buggy on the street without destroying the dirt tires it came with.

You definitely can't beat the price on these too, ~$15.99 / pair? Awesome!

They seem to wear well and get surprisingly good traction. I recommend them.

VERY GREAT TIRES GUYS,HAVE A SUPERB GRIP,AND THE YELLOW IN THE WHEELS ARE VERY COOL,USING THIS IN A RC8.2E. FOR ON ROAD YOU DONT FIND NOT BETTER WITH THIS PRICE..MY RC8.2E NOW IS BETTER THAN MY GTP2E FOR ONROAD...
