Pro-Line has announced the release of two new licensed Toyo Proxes R888R Belted tires for the Arrma 1/7 line of speed bash cars including the Infraction, Limitless and Felony. The 42/100 size will mount directly to the front of the Felony or the front and rear of an Infraction or Limitless while a 53/107 size is also available for the rear of the Felony. Each tire is molded from Pro-Line’s long-lasting S3 compound and arrives pre-glued to Arrma’s black 5-spoke 2.9″ wheels for added convenience. Large shoulder blocks add lateral grip while a wide center rib provides directional stability, just like the 1:1 tire was designed to do. Unlike the full scale R888R the Pro-Line version is not directional as only one orientation of the asymmetric tread pattern is included.
Finally, a note from the engineers at Pro-Line:
“Please note these tires have a maximum speed rating that, if exceeded, could result in permanently damaging the internal belt. For the Proxes 42/100 tires that is 100 mph or about 8500 RPM. Over revving your tires could result in breaking the internal belt, which will NOT be covered under warranty. This can be caused by “diffing out” your tires or holding the throttle open while one, two, or three of your tires are stopped, which substantially increases the RPM sent to the free-spinning tire or tires.”
