JConcepts Octagons 2.2" 2WD Front Buggy Tires are a great choice when track conditions require a tire with less tread, but more tread than a full slick tire. The beauty of the Octagons lay just beneath the surface where JConcepts has removed a little surface area in the geometry based pattern.
The carcass is totally unique, slightly more round than JConcepts slick tires of the past and incorporates heavy X-pattern style inner ribbing for increased support. The continuous thickness carcass is light-weight and utilizes the industry standard 2.2” mounting bead. Like the name suggests, the embossed tread which is Octagon shaped is repeated and overlapped to form a subculture of grippy surface edges for dry or abrasive surfaces.
The main surface of the tire has the reliable slick and smooth surface which grips conditions as expected from a JConcepts tire. The Octagons are available in green, black and indoor clay, gold compounds to match just about any racing surface. Each package includes the Dirt-Tech insert, popularized by its durable nature and gray color, provides customers the combo package they have been waiting for from JConcepts.
