This is a set of two AKA Racing Grid Iron II 1/8 Scale Off-Road Buggy Tires, pre-mounted on white EVO wheels. The Grid Iron II uses the same carcass as the World Championship winning Impact tire, with the addition of added waffle ribbing to help control tire expansion and angled side pins for better performance on rougher tracks. This created a tire that is 5% lighter than the original, with improved improving acceleration and all-around performance.
These pre-mounts feature AKA's World Champion winning EVO wheel, combined with AKA's soft red insert. When these performance parts are combined with the AKA stiffener disc (AKA34003Y or AKA34003W), you have most technically advanced wheel/tire combo available.
Features:
- Red Insert (Soft): The red insert is designed to soak up the big bumps with its fluted I.D. while still holding its shape in the turns to increase corner speed and consistency.
- Tread Performance: Each tire tread is computer designed and track tested by AKA engineers Gil Losi, Mark Pavidis and team drivers to ensure the best performance before each tire goes into production.
- Lifespan: The long life of the AKA tires is due to the collective decades of rubber compound development Gil Losi brings to the table. In fact, Mark and Gil have been responsible for developing some of the most successful tires in off-road racing for a generation. Each compound is tested in labs then rigorously track tested to ensure the highest quality.
- Balance: Like AKA inserts and wheels, tire balance is critical to superior performance and it's a priority in AKA tires. Mold components are manufactured to the highest tolerances to ensure the best possible alignment of all the mold components. This results in a tire with more uniform thickness for the best possible balance.
- Mold Accuracy: AKA tire molds are made in the U.S.A. using the most advance mold-making techniques and processes available. The cost is higher to produce such a precision mold, but its part of an uncompromising desire to deliver the highest quality product available.
- Assembly Quality: AKA R-Line Pre-Mounts are all hand assembled using AKA Premium tire glue and are double checked for adhesion quality. There is no doubt AKA has the best pre-mounts in the industry.
