the caliber truggy tires should work really good.

Revolver's prolly not, its a "square" tire, better for hard packed grooved tracks.

Calibers on a 10th scale truck are crazy hooked up in Mobile. Mounted in one direction there's so much sidebite that the truck doesn't want to rotate in the turns and pushes like a dump truck. Mounted the other way there's so much forward traction that I couldn't keep the front end on the ground when accelerating. :shock:

I'm also thinking of trying the JConcepts Crosshairs...just to see for myself. I've heard good and bad things about them on different track surfaces.

I've been running Double Dees on my T4 and have been very happy with them. Seems to be just the right amount of grip, doesn't push too hard, has just the right amount of side bite.

I like city blocks on the front and bow ties in the rear my self. I know I dont have much experience on the track with my buggy, heck, all I do is get DNF's but those tires seems to work well for me.
Thanks,
