RC4WD X2S^3 compound is pretty damn soft!

I've got about 5 hours on these 4.7" MT/R's, and they're already getting demolished. The truck weighs less than 6 pounds, and I was watching rubber flying off on the tougher climbs. They seemed to do pretty well, but for anything other than competition, I don't think they're very practical.

I couldn't find much info about this compound before I bought the tires, so at least now I know. Even my Pit Bull alien snot tires hold up much better. I think I'm sticking to G8 and Komp kompound tires for the Southern California rocks from here on out!

Wow, thats crazy. Rocks out here are cheese graters also, so i'll stay away from this compound. Thanks[emoji1688]

These tires may have 2 hours on them...
