Panthers new Tires

I laughed!

WOW !!!! Go to work for a few hours and this thread blows up. :shock:

But on a serious note, Panther takes alot of time and puts alot of effort into making a great product. With the multiple compounds they offer, it makes tuning your rides a breeze. I think this is whats going to make them stand apart from all others. I am really anxious to see how they do on the rocks in EeePee's territory.

Just got the tracking number on mine.....kinda got me all warm and tingly inside. LOL


DK......Hit me up later, I am headed out to the RC Pro Series.

Ooo, ooo, ooo...a new tire...and it looks like a winner 8) I'll definitely pick up a set or two just due to curiosity alone.

On the tread pattern...I think it's just that they are a similar design pattern to the Claw's. Even though there are major differences in the tread pattern, it still brings to mind a Claw. Wouldn't necessarily be worried about the designs being too similar from a legal standpoint, but only to have a distinct design that tells everyone that may not know what tires they are looking at...that they are Panther's.

I agree though that if the tread design works, then so be it..."thumbsup"

I can't wait to hear what you guys think of them.

if it works well why screw with it?

B/c there is already a tire that looks a lot like this and the pattern could be approved on for better side hilling. Maybe just angle them more like a Masher.

Torry, send a set my way to test "thumbsup"

mashers suck for 99% of the stuff Ive ever run. side hilling is a function of foams more than the tires and frankly the mashers suck at side hilling anything but slick rock

The similarity in tread design doesn't bother me.

Look at the large number of off road tires that look "similar" but don't perform anything alike. There is much more to a tires performance than just the tread pattern.

I think the Panther tires looks fine, it's not like Losi designed the Rock Claw thread pattern to be crawler specific. The basic tread pattern had been used for a long time on several other Losi tires.

Thankfully the thread pattern along w/ the rubber compound, and carcass turned out to be a fantastic tire.

Now we are getting another great tire. I'm sure the Panther tire will be a fantastic performer and will win it's fair share of comps, just like Losi and Pro Line.

 

[run2jeepn]

I think they look fine as well. Just thought they looked very Losi style is all. I'll still buy a set and try out for myself..

I think we agree on something for the first time ever LOL

I know!:shock:

















It burns Mommy, it burns! Please make it stop!:lol:

Jason....are you getting a set of these?

I was told I would be getting a set. If so I might just have to run them at the Montana comp.

I was told the same thing. Hopefully the folks that were at RCX didn't loose my business card with my addy on it. I'd really like to see how these tires work in the Nor-cal area.

My opinion is that they held sidehills very well. If you look at the Panther tire, it has a lot more angular tread bar design. I would say try them before you assume they won't hold very well, you might be surprised.

I plan on trying them and replacing the Losi's on my Poulson rig with these.

Looks like a Job Well Done David and Panther. "thumbsup"

X2!

I know a local sponsored Panther Driver here in Modesto... I hope he gets a few sets soon ;-)

Short road trip last night, and here we go!

I have the three compounds in my possession, but Dave and I mounted up the Super Softs, and they are quite something I must say. No other tire I've ever come across has felt like this.

:twisted:

 

[Offroader5]

Is that a pretty stiff standard foam you have in those EP? Or is your rig just that light? :lol:

 

[binaryterror]

That sounds like my good friends at Panther. Even their "hard" Caly compound is sticky out of the package. Do the laundry trick and wow do they perform on my RC8.

I can't imagine how sticky the Super Softs must be.
