What is the best 1.0 scale crawler tire?! In this video I test four of the very best tires in the 1.0 scale tire segment. We have entrants from LGRP, Proline, Injora, and RC4WD. These are all ~57mm and will work great on the Axial SCX24, Traxxas TRX4M, FMS FCX24, and any other mini crawler running a 1.0 wheel.

Thank you! Axel and I have a blast with these. It makes it so much better when he's involved.
In my experience the Trenchers are a great tire, like the little Hyrax tires they just work! I've noticed that while Proline's compound is not as soft and sticky as some other brands that doesn't seem to stop their forward progress! My theory is that you can go too soft on the compound and the tread lugs just fold over instead of grabbing, I think Proline knows their stuff and their tire designs and rubber compound seems to be proof of that.

Nice, just what I needed for my trx4m. Helps me out.
I would love the swamp kings to win, but I agree with you that the pro line trenchers got the win.

Great tire!
Good video. Hope you do update. Nice to see base rig used.
I saw this video and decided to get the Proline Trencers, here's my review: My TRX-4M: Bronco White When I first installed them and tested them on my homemade cardboard track I was actually quite disappointed, compared to the stock tires the Trenchers just didn't have the grip it needed. It would always slide down the cardboard hill that I have driven up several times with the stock tires. But later I decided to vent the tires since the rims that came with the tires didn't have holes in them so I decided to get some nicer rims with holes. After venting the tires the grip basically doubled. All that weight forcing the tires to really crawl up is what the tires really needed, venting. Although I do have to say that the tires aren't the best when it's being driven on smooth surfaces (like cardboard) or marble etc and they are amazing when you drive them over rough surfaces as you can also see in the video. These tires are better on snow than the stock tires. The Proline Trenchers fit very well on the TRX-4M and don't require any cutting or extensions. (You might experience rubbing, just like when using the stock tires and the size on the Proline Trencers is just about the exact same as for the stock tires. The Proline Trenchers doesn't use a very sticky compound and it cleans out by itself. My ratings: -Smooth Surfaces: 4/10 -Rough Surfaces: 10/10 -Shallow & Soft Snow: 8/10 -Deep Snow: 5/10 (all the way up to bumper) -Very hard snow: 10/10 (Hard and rough snow) -Dirt & Dust: 8/10 -Rocks'n Stuff: 10/10 When driving in deep snow you end up having to fight for traction sometimes. -Average Rating: 7.8 / 10 Conclusion: The Proline Trenchers are great for rough terrain and not so much smooth terrain (Cardboard, marble, etc) They perform fine until they get vented. After venting the tires they become grippy beasts. They perform quite well in snow and really well on rocks'n stuff as you can also see in the video. PS: My TRX-4M isn't very modified, just some tires and a few weights! I recommend them for sure! - Just vent them (:

I just bought those 57mm Injoras and threw them on some Treal all brass wheels. They really need the added weight to grip but other than that they are really good. The one problem with being so sticky is they loose a lot of grip because they hold onto a lot of crap that you drive over. I still think the Injora T1008 are the best tires for a heavy TRX-4M.

Hello Adam! Thanks for the great review. I would love a quick comparison between the Injora 64mm you run on the comp/black Bronco VS the Trenchers that you ranked no 1 in this video. I am debating between these two. Are you planning on switching to the Trenchers on the comp build? (Im aware that you did a comparison on a specific size of tyre but Im searching for the best overall for crawling for the trx4m!)
@CapeCrawlers
Жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching! I think the 64mm's would walk all over the trenchers. The extra clearance and bigger footprint would give them a big advantage I think. The only downfall would be the added height could cause the rig to be more tippy on vertical and sidehills. No, I am not planning to switch to the trenchers on the comp build. As good as they are, I still like a bigger tire.

Hyrax or Pin Tires.. any money they will be the best. Inserts make a big difference also, obviously
