Sprinter 2.2, Aqua Compound, Fits 2.2" 1/10th Buggy Rear
The Sprinter tire is designed to bridge a gap between the popular Double Dees and other pin tire options from JConcepts. The Sprinter tire has square, angled pins that are stacked vertically to flex and fold evenly across the tire. Typically, a stacked tread will wear less and provide more forward bite, while the aligned spaces help rotation in the turns. JConcepts focused on durability and performance to bring a rear tire option to market that competes on loose surfaces which are wet or dusty.
With the popularity of dirt-oval racing, vehicles being designed with either mid-motor or laydown transmission options, a new generation pin style, carcass and outer tread design was needed. The outer sidewall of the tire has angled pins incorporated into the design to help release the turn and provide the rotation not only needed in dirt off-road but specifically in dirt-oval racing. The tread transition is supported with a generous radius, which promotes "pin snap" and resists tearing or separation.
Horizontal traction bars connect several pins near the center of the tire, which bonds a critical area for increased push at high-speed. The sidewall area blends nicely into a step-spike feature which helps smooth the transition in bumpy sections, and creates side-bite. The interior ribbing features the double-hatch pattern that helps maintain a comfy ride, and each set of tires includes the Dirt-Tech closed cell inserts.
