ok I'm sure this has been covered but I thought I'd start a thread for all the info you have lol. I was curious what tires work where. indoors....outdoors. I got a buggy and soon a truggy and need to put tires on them. I'm sure the proline velocity rims will be on each of them. so post away and tell me your knowledge.

na square is more for rock climbing. the corners and edges give me more bite.

my "attempt" at hooking up this summer for outdoor:
Proline - Crimefighter MTR's (<<hopefully they come with my mugen instead of MT's)
Proline - Bowtie MTR's
GRP - Grips premount
GRP - Cubics premount - many racers on Truggyracers say these are dialed on any surface

i think the bowtie or a crime is a good all purpose tire for DIRT surfaces, but yeah, I used crimes on my buggy and they worked well everywhere I ran it it seemed
on the gas truck.......I have no idea, my friend runs holeshots rear, and blade front i think on his xxx-nt......that would be a good Tex question, I think he runs or ran that class, and had that truck as well

M2 or M3 crimes will work EVERYWHERE in buggy, I like the crimes on my truggy but seldom run bowties. Holeshots may surpise some guys with the surfaces they hook up on
