These tires look identical and I heard that Pro-Line are making the Dirt Bonz for HPI.
I am going to buy one these sets.

Has anybody tried Dirt Bonz or the Bow-Tie ?
If so, how do they work in loose terrain, like gravel ?
 
Here's something I kinda figured out trying a ton of different off road tires for both a t-maxx and a savage, they pretty much all work about the same. You get about the same amount of traction out of most off road tires. I can't honestly say my maxx mashers were better or worse than the swamper look alike tires. The only real difference I have really noticed was the smoother ride between some of the off road tires on road and the difference between off road tires and on road tires on road. Some will dispute this thought saying that tires like slingshots in soft sand will get better traction than any other tires, my thoughts are this, just because you are slinging a ton of sand behind your rc when you hit the gas does mean better traction but at the cost of acceleration speed.
 
Hey, I currently have both of these tires on my trucks, but I mostly run on hard packed dirt, they work great for that good cornering traction, but I also purchased a set of Lossi Zombie Max tires the other day. These tires are the sh** for off road. They are a real soft compound and they grip like glue. The only problem is finding them good luck
