The latest addition to AKA’s 1:8 buggy tire line is the Gridiron II. The first update to the Gridiron is the World Championship winning carcass borrowed from the Impact tire. Waffle ribbing was added to help control tire expansion and the side pins are angled for better performance on rougher tracks. The tire is 5% lighter than the original, improving acceleration and all-around performance. The Gridiron II is available in AKA’s proprietary, World Championship winning compounds. Designed, tested, and proudly made in the USA.

You may remember we used the original Grid Iron for our Slash 4×4 LCG shootout. A very capable tire, I can’t wait for these to be released in the short course sizes.
