Thank you for this video it has honestly been Extremely helpful. The price difference is really hard to justify and. I was very concerned I would have wished I got the better prolines but I would rather have 2 full sets for a little bit more.
Appreciate your feedback to hell with anyone with negative comments it’s your Experience Keep the content coming will be checking out the power hobby’s for the X-Maxx you have some Elite rigs my man!!!
I agree with you 100%....I own all of theses tires including the power hobby tires,,,,I love all of them,,,depending what and how I want to drive,,,, like they say. You get what you pay for,,,,I think these are the best choices on the market today,,,,,like your videos,,,I don’t miss a one,,,excellent work...thanks a million,,,,🚘🇺🇸👈
I've tried both . And agree. I like both. Differently. I balance all my wheels and tires . I use a dubro prop ballancer. It makes a Huge difference. quicker acceleration. much, much smoother motor/gear noise. I found that out of 8 tires 1 was balanced. And 7 were from 4 to 9 grams out of balance EACH. Think of it li a spinning top. I use pocket change as weights and 1 inch strips of duct tape. Try it. you'll be surprised. 😊
I have both of these tires on my kraton 8s and I feel like the duratrax are a bit softer and lighter. I think my proline wear a bit better but they seem pretty compatible minus price.
Do you think that the duratrax hold up better than the PowerHobby Scorpions? My Scorpions just came unglued after just a few runs. Also, sorry if you already said this but do you vent your tires?
I would be curious your observation of the powerhobby's on the outcast. I recently got a set for my outcast and like them, but my only comparison is to the stock tires
Do the Duratrax do good backflips being belted or does the belt kinda prevent it. looking at the duratraxs for my Rustler 4x4 with Max10 setup in it and i like being able to do backflips.
I tried the MX43 on my xmaxx. My biggest complaint is how stiff they are. Running on gravel you can see that they don’t soak up anything, every little stone causes them to jump. I ended up putting them on a 5th scale gasser. It’s a heavier vehicle so the stiff tire is better suited for it
Did you have to modify the wheel to get it to fit on the Outcast? Looking to get new wheels and tires for my outcast, but can only find wheels for xmaxx.... and nothing for outcast
I personaly bought the Proline for my 6S Kraton and yes the are kind of pricey, but they perform well. Wish i saw your review before and i will look for a set of Duratrax to try them. Thanks for the great vidéo !!👍🏻🙂
That's the problem with the duratrax ones. You have to keep an eye on them. The 4.3 badlands are better suited for me because I run giant motors and escs on my Outcast 8s and Xmaxx trucks. Hobbywing max 5 and XLX2 2 etc.
I agree .I also think pro has more grip in my book this is a bad thing. Where I want to slide I can't on pro can on duratrax. The car slides on factory a lot still slides on duratrax not on pro line . More wear on car breaking more parts. On pro. Funny duratrax owned by arrma I think they cept there cars handling I'm mind. More than pro. Pro makes the hardest core products no dought . But when is it to much grip.. they do make an A T but still overkill grip I think it's the rubber compound. You want it to slide some not roll all the time. I like my cars drivable but basher at heart. Money not an issue. Do fast turns with both grass dirt street see who wins do tricks slides . I found my winner. For every day driving. Have other tires for special use own both brands.
They problem with the duratrax is that they become unglued on me when bashing with my X-Maxx with the 1100kv motor and Max 5 25/35 gearing. I'm going to try out the Mx 43 today on my upgraded xmaxx with 1/5 electronics.
@@paulclancy2404 I bashed mine with the badlands on concrete yesterday. It didn't go well. I think the Outcast 8s tires are actually better for landing on concrete (I have the bigger wheel nuts for the xmaxx to try them out). Even the stock Xmaxx tires are better for that.

@@joseCalderon1976 ok I check out the stock wheels are kush on 08s , guys always go back to stock on xxmaxx , weight wheels important far as diffs lasting , the arrmas with small wheels rigs never blow diffs ,
One thing to keep in mind is you’re getting much better product support with proline. They are made in the US as opposed to Duratrax which are made in china. Nothing wrong with made in China but it definitely affects the price and the quality of the finished product. I personally can justify paying slightly more for a product made in the US because I know that product probably cost 2 to 3 times as much to produce here. I also own both tires and the build quality and workmanship on the pro-lines is noticeably better. As it should be for the price. How pretty the glue job is may not affect performance but QC costs money. Does it really matter on tires for a toy truck? That’s Debatable.. You may or may not be willing to pay more for them but I think the price difference is justified. With all of that being said, I think the duratrax are the best deal out there for wheels and tires for the Kraton 8s. I’ve put mine through the ringer and the only issue I’ve had was a torn sidewall from a pitbull that attacked my rig.
hello beautiful the video which are the best duratrax or proline I did not follow you while you were speaking I do not understand much English I am in Italy
I broken 2 drive shafts at the rear using the mx43 badlands tires are to heavy for their own good They break the pins rights off going into the rear diff anyone else had issues like this?
im not trying to be negative, just suggesting that you go and clarify your ending. It's so convoluted that i had to play the last 2.5 mins twice and then the last 3.5mins one last time just to sort out the rant and in the end i picked scorpions??
