Author: Brian Ma (color01) Very sticky tire. Thanks to the treaded design they have more absolute traction than the 6 degree slicks, but I felt that breakaway characteristics were slightly more abrupt. If you keep this tire within its traction envelope you can change the front end setup for lots more steering.
Tire wear is [understandably] faster than the slicks; after a few hours the outer edge of the tread is beginning to show wear.
The sidewall on these treaded tires is thicker and stiffer than those of the 6 degree slicks, so surprisingly these tires don't absolutely HAVE to be glued to be useful (they still perform better glued though).
One last note, the set I received did not have an even tire profile -- the outer edges are raised vs. the center rib of the tread. It will take some more tire wear before I finally get the tire to sit flat on the track. This may limit the tire's useful life in a race situation.
Sorry it's been so long since you heard from us in your inbox. :) Turns out that when you mix together the demands of adulthood, add a new human to the mix, up the ante with the complexities of a tween and jumble that all together with a global pandemic, (not to mention the rising cost of EVERYTHING) you get a bit of a slow down in the small business department of life. BUT, all is not lost. We're still here shipping RC treasures to you. :)

Hello,
For all reading this I will get to my point. Definitely buy here. Now I will go into more detail as to why. This store has great service in the fact questions are answered quickly and every order is proccessed and shipped in a timely matter, even around the holidays. I always was informed of where my package was, and it arrived with free shipping (limited time) in less that 7 days! Not only is the store and service good, but the product is awesome! I ordered a Mini-Z MA-010 Readyset Subaru Impreza Spc.C and it arrived quick, and ready for action. I did some minor reading of the manual and I was off! Talk about great out of the box, this thing made drifting look easy. It was smooth, and response was fantastic. I slapped on some upgrades and now I love it. It handles like a dream compared to my Xmods. I would definitely reccomend the shop, and products. Plus they are an official retailer of many products! The store, service, and product is amazing. I don't know how to stop rambling about it.
To end, I would like to say I LOVE shop.tinyrc.com!!
THANKS!!
From Luigi, a satisfied customer. :)

Intellect batteries are the punchiest batteries I have ever tried! and pretty good bang for the buck. I have had a couple of cells vent so they are not a perfect 10, but I would say they are a pretty good 8.
This testamonial thing must be new...
