Best 2.2 scale tire

I know it is not the best scale looking tire there is and I had a hard time putting them on mine for that reason, but my Mashers have killed any other tire I have tried on my trail truck. I was highly impressed with them. I have not tried the TSL's but am hoping some one has used them both and can chime in here.
 
got to post this, motoworx wheels 1, pro-line tsl sx's 0

it was pinched between two rocks and i powered out of it. the guys i was with said it looked like it should have pulled the tire off the bead lock but it did this instead. this was the same spot i broke the gears in my 430 oz. airtronics servo.:twisted:

I would take the hole instead of the tire getting ripped off and ruining something or losing the tire. "thumbsup"
 
What about the good ol pro-line flat irons I find them to be pretty descent.

They work, but they're just absolutely too wide to be scale at all. The 1.9's look good and are scale in width, but the 2.2's are just kinda ridiculous.

I've had issues with my Vanquish wheels and the TSL 2.2's as well. Sanded bead surface a bit to rough it up some and they're holding great.
 
well craig, I was told by you that you like my Proline Flat Irons. So, I am just going to say that I personally like them. But, like the other guys said, there are quite a few out there that can get the job done better than others. I do wish mine were a tad bit taller.

YA they are pretty wide, but alot of the other scale tires seem too tall. But thats just me

I wouldn't mind making a 5.5" tall tire out of it though, I'd run it for the scale look for sure. My two favorite tires are the TSL's and the Flat Irons.
 
I just ordered my TSL's today. I'm planning to put them on a set of RC4wd Rockrippers. Hope the bead holds. They work fine with G8 compound chisels so I should be fine.
