The New Sticky Shoes

[master_of_desaster]

Sup yall. jus got my pather Cougar crawler tires in finally from the LHS. im diggin them alot already. i bought the panther soft foams and the memory foams as well as northwest tractions' #8 reach foams for testing and whatnot. These tires are rediculusly sticky and soft!:eek: i love the looks and cleaning the flaq off was a breeze. the tires look really clean and i think these tires will suit my needs very well. on to pics!:D

[master_of_desaster]

now i plan on running memorys in the front and the softs in the rear for now. here are some comparison pics of the softs and memory:cool: in the first pic the memory's are on the left. second pic on the left, third pic memory, fourth pic soft, fifth pic memory on the left

I've never seen these tires before, but I think I know why they call them panthers. Look at the big lugs they look like panther ears.:rolleyes: MOD what u have them on the WK?

[master_of_desaster]

yeah the king is diggin the new sneakers! the company is called panther. they got a killer line of truggy and buggy tires

[LSXEric]

you have a link to them? I cant seem to find them:confused:

[master_of_desaster]

yeah i'll git them

[bugz2002]

MOD your going love the new shoes. never tired them out my self but only heard good things about them. plus they arnt your stock tires. you will be able to climb 10x better. i loved it when i got my flatrocks. let us know what you think.

[OldSchoolRC]

never seen those before, they do indeed look sticky! much better than the stockers.

[JasonC]

These tires are picky with foam selection.

What works on one crawler won't work on another.

[master_of_desaster]

yeah thats why i have like 10 sets of foams. i really want to get my truck dialed. but im in the works for a new chassis tho so we'll see. talkin to Jeff aka Kamikazi and EeePee and i think i have an idea as to what to look for. thanks Jason!

[Taylor]

[LSXEric]

Hey MoD just saw the lead weihts. Anything specil bout them? I thought of usein pine car round weighs. Will they work? 24, 1/8 oz each.

[Maxx man]

dude that thing looks awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[master_of_desaster]

Hey MoD just saw the lead weihts. Anything specil bout them? I thought of usein pine car round weighs. Will they work? 24, 1/8 oz each.

yeah i use self adheisive wheel weights that i get from work. Losi sells self ads as well. pine car weights should work. i like sticky weights cause they aint moving around. weight in the front is good for a crawler...that is whats so special:)

[master_of_desaster]

dude that thing looks awsome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thank you very much:)

[LSXEric]

Okay thanx. I meant by special, is will pinecar weights work other than the ones you have.

[master_of_desaster]

are they sticky? i jus go for sticky weights cause they are more convenient. i was using bb's in the old cut thrashers. so whatever works and is available. anything is better than no weight

[LSXEric]

Hey MoD another quickey. What battire are you running.

[master_of_desaster]

i'm currently runnin a maxamps 2s lipo. 2500mah if i remember right. either that or my venom 4500- 5000 mah nimh
