Scale Tire test using a wood ramp with the top at 60 degrees 

Great Video, because of what was not in it. No 5 minute selfie intro, No continous empty words, just a factual and demonstrable comparison. Excellent Video, and i am in South China with nothing else to do on a quiet evening.

Thanks for telling us when the video starts. That was pretty conscientious.

Great video watched to the end 😊 did not think any would do it after the first few, epic 👍🤘

Very interesting test. I can't believe how well the stock redcat tires performed.

Excellent test. Had me glued to the screen from start to stop.

I love the sound of the second to the last set, they even sounded real, chirp,chirp,chirp,chirp,chirp, lol soo cool, great video

Haven't ever owned a proper RC anything but still fun to see that little crawler at the edge of traction.

That was super impressive. Thanks for sharing!

Enjoyed the video - well made very informative.

Wow. Very educational and surprising. Thanks

the info you give make me happy, why i buy the gen 7 yesterday and the result you show impresme to much and my gen 7 will be in stock tire for ever, thanks a lots really helpful info, you save me money

wow love the tier test great video

Badass ramp test! Make those out of a multitude of composites and u have quite the arena all on its own! So far I've only had the Gmade Komodo tires that come with it, and as long as u don't chew em up rudely, they do rather well but I'm rather impressed by your options 👏

Sweet video, never thought the truck would get past halfway or so. Earned my sub...

Great video!

Awesome video and test!

Awesome video brother , I like the stock rubber that came with my Gen 7, not to shabby I'd say for a stock tire 👍

Cool video, awesome to see the stock Gen7 wheels and tires do so well.

Nice job man 👍🏻👍🏻 Very informative.

Great vid brother, big thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍

Excellent review my friend!

Awesome idea limiting the throttle so many reviewers just give it more juice for the tires they like. Awesome comparison.

Liked the test! I have to say i was really impressed with the gen7 stock tires.

great video, at first I thought the ramp was a bit optimistic in the angle/surface texture and thought all the tires would perform poorly. Happily surprised, lol.

I'm loving the china wheels I can't stop buying them! lol

excellent true test tire review thanks

Wow what a video.. those redcats rock

No bullshit simple grip test, timestamp for the action, valued youtuber ! Thumbs up

Best test of tires I've ever seen. You need to do more testing of other r/c parts. Great video! I was placing bets at the beginning to see which tire would win. I lost.

Good test vid..very interesting .....thanks...

These 1/10th cars still apply the principles of offroading. 1/10th scale tire rpm and grip principles. Lowering the voltage down equivalent to a doublers low range, will drastically reduce the wheelspin, and enhance the traction. The truck with the slowest roll on any of those tires that grip even a little, will creep right up to the top the slower you go. Wayyyy too much wheel spin on the first two tires. However, I imagine, its hard to get motor rpms that slow with the trigger setup. So it is what it is.

Damn. I bet redcat would love this as a promo video. Awesome video brother.

Thanks for your test. I finally got a conclusion what I need to buy.

I can't believe how well those stock gen 7 tires hooked up!!! And then those poor trx 4 tires didn't hardly make it to the tape 😂😂😂

Killer video man i love watching these type of testing videos

Sweet comparison very good job I didn't have that much luck with my stock tires on the plywood challenge

Great tyre test man

Really a great video mate keep it up , subbed .

I still love the Swamper tires! Even though they failed miserably in this test...

Impressive rig

NICE TEST VIDEO !!!!... i actually just got some OTTSIX KLR SILVERS for my buggy there sweet awesome traction , and for the price of 25$ i wasnt complaining

Great video, makes me want to mod my crawler and get some steep angle climbs

Great vid.. stock nice to know!!!

Keep the good work with that

Good job on the video man!

Great video👍 really shows tires do matter! I wonder how my tires would do 🤔

I like the cheaper wheels as well both 2.2 & 1.9 odd though, i have never heard of most thise tires, i run Proline, PitBulls , Rovers etc going on smoth wood good test but, i was introduced to the hobby with a 10th scale Axial Scorpion with 2.2, i don't get much into scale, i have a Rubicon lifted, but I run competition rigs

me gusto mucho el video..desde colombia

Excellent comparison vid!.. could only be improved by same wheels/ weights... Those stock cheapo wheels were the biggest winner I'd say..

Good vid dude 👍 would like to see you do the same test using the trx 4 😃

Interesting... For my valuation tires

Dude pretty impressive what the difference in tire is. Those Redcat tires sound like actual full scale tires barking.

Wow, great info. How about a link to those winners. I just bought an Everest Pro myself. I can't find exact tires online though ?

Great video, wet comparison would be interesting please

AWESOMENESS!!! ;)

Awesome video!! I have a hard time finding plywood rocks in my local hills. I usually find granite rocks. Hehe😈

Nice video

Couple questions for ya. Forgive me if some of them seem ignorant, I'm relatively new to the crawler scene. 1, Is there any particular reason you didn't try out the popular Pro-line Hyrax? 2, Why was your FR tire lifting from the surface and can that be fixed or is it just a geometry issue with the Redcat? 3, How big a difference would it make strictly in this test using a 1.95 vs 2.2s?

The Gen 7 tire was the only one that caused a backflip. It was CG limited, not grip limited. To really call a winner I would need to see how the Redcat tires do with the same weighted wheels and foams. Weight and foams make a massive difference when grip is not the limiting factor.

nice driving

I’m about to get the gen 7 pro, how long does the battery last? From your experience

I had a gen 7 but upgraded to a sport and I actually used the redcat tires today on a crawl and I ain't gunna lie..... It really impressed me and another friend as well. Gun a run them some more to test the waters

That's pretty amazing. Now only if my real truck had that kind of traction.

I'm looking for a good overall tire to mount on the 1.9beadlocks for my trx6... I'm very happy with the stock tires durability and performance, little bit of wear and have over 20 hours on them. Any suggestion?

What was the angle on that ramp? You put out great stuff man. Thank you 👍🏽

What wheelbase is that set to? 12.6”? I would imagine the 12.3” would flip too easily.

The wheels on the winning klr tires are they the cheap Amazon ones? How well do they do holding a bead?

I actually really like the Redcat Iroks. They're officially licensed, aggressive tread, come in 1.9 and 2.2, and they seem to grip amazing. At least on my Gen8.

Awesome video, liked and subed

Great Test! Just got the pro Redcat and have upgraded to aluminum wheels. Thanks to your test I'll stick with stock tires, and the pro has the memory foam. I live in Eastern Carolina so like you not a lot of natural Rock and Hill

Rock beast!!!!!

Are any of the wheels and tires that performed worse than the stock redcat wheels and tires vented? I've heard tires and wheels not being vented prevents some from performing as well as vented wheels and tires. I'd like to know before I started cutting holes in tires though.

gr8 test

That was an awesome test. I also was impressed with the performance of the stock tires I bet you that with aluminum wheels they will perform as good as the Klrs. Great job great video

Great test. Try a set of duratrax deep woods c3. I have never tested them on a piece of plywood like your test but they are typically what I run and in most all conditions they have outperformed all the other tires I've tried up to this point

Man you did an awesome job on that video does the Gen 7 Pro ready to run by Redcat come with the same tires and foam inserts as the stock gen 7 tires and foam inserts? Thank you

I call shenanigans on the stock tires... Lol. WOW, wasn't expecting that !!

You change anything on this from out of the box like suspension or add weight anywhere?

I would like to see drag slash rear tires do the wood ramp climb

never in a million years would i have thought that was possible traxxas just knows how to make a good looking tire, making it have traction also is just too hard for them!! i would think that weight is only and advantage @ less then 45 degrees, @ 60 degrees the weight is probably more a disadvantage then advantage because of gravity

Edge of my seat while you were running the stock RedCats..!

Im curious on if the stock gen7 tires would have made it the top if they had medal rims thanks for the video keep it up.

Wow this video is full of information! how tall are those redact stock tires man? In milimeters? Thank you

Where at on Florida? I just moved here from WV and having a hard time finding anywhere to rc. crawler/ trail truck.

Thanks

You of all people know that each and every tire are good for certain situations and terrains. This is just a wood test.... for instance my box stock traxxas tire out performs my high dollar ottsix and proline tires on the trails and rocks.... hard to explain. The swampers definitely have their place in the crawling world as all of them do. Good video overall

I like how the one tire made the low pitch when trying to grip.

Where are you at in Florida?

Are these tires all from the bags, or have they all been run on different terrains ?

If the truck had a little more weight in the front, with stock rcr tires, it probably would have made it.. Awesome, made my decision

Hey I’m new to this hobby was wondering How well does it crawl with 2.2s?

I didn't think anything would be better than the gen7

hehe nice video

Asian wheels all the way !!! Great stuff and GREAT PRICES! I’m with you 100%

funny thing happen to me the other day when I was out playing with my Redcat gen 7 pro. Me and my brother went out to this lake the had lowered the water 5ft. we were in our kayaks and the Redcat pro in a blowup boat being pulled by the kayak. well on our way back the wind started to pick up and low and behold the blowup boat flipped over with the Redcat in it. yep there I was watching my almost $300 rock crawler sinking to the bottom of the lake (which is 100ft deep). I have never felt so helpless in my life. The wind was 25mhp and the water is like 40 degrees. The lesson I learned in this was didn't get to attached to things. so i now i no rock crawler.

You should get a traxxas defender and see how one of those do. I just got one a few days ago and I'm pretty impressed

Who do you order those Chinese wheels from? Any particular place? I was amazed at how well the Redcat tires hooked up on the plywood, then the KLR Gold were even better. Very impressed. Not too surprised at how bad the Traxxas tires did. I have owned several Traxxas rigs, and the tires were the first to go. The swampers are more designed for mud, not so much for smooth surfaces, so to be fair, do a test with them on a muddy surface, and other types of surfaces to see how each of them do on them. You will be surprised at how well they do.

Is there a friction to heat to loss of traction dynamic influencing this?

interesting nice comparison, cant go wrong with china wheels!

I cannot understand how people think that scaling down a 4x4 automatically scales down physics.
