well the proline ones are not bad. See the little cracks are not bad i just needed a tad glue. Sorry if i made it seam like there falling apart. I just seen on 2 tires there where a few small spots. I had my girl look them over as i wanted a second set of eyes look over my tires. She said she would best describe them as a few small cuts and the glue seamed to keep them in tact. I just wanted to make sure with keeping to the off road driving should they hold up? The glue fix as i never had to fix tires. I know my old school tires that came with my maxx there just about done lol. I did glue them a few weeks back there still cracking threw the glue fixs. The rim to tire fixs have held but the tire is dry rotting so no glue will imo fix it. I just keep them for on road driving to tune my motor as all the parks are full of snow and i am not set up for driving in snow/water.IMHO I would just replace them because if they fail, how much is it going to cost you if you we're to crash or lose control? I would look into ebay and see if you can get some tmaxx first gen tires and wheels. I'm sure they're out there due to the tmaxxs popularity and that the emaxx used the same tires for some time
i will stick to the park with them, i was so happy. I was like yes i am getting some good tires . This was right after i knew i had to upgrade to better tires as the ones i got with my maxx needed to be glued all over the place. Yeah i am tad worried those little cracks/cuts to the side of these tires has me nervous i paid 30.00 for the tires. I got nice rims i can just unscrew the tires no need for gluing that is cool.Bow Ties are a great dirt track tire. I believe that's what they were intended for mostly.
They should be fine for bashing on dirt, specifically hard or semi hard dirt surfaces.
I wouldn't run them on the street to much though, they're a soft compound.
As for the cracks, I wouldn't worry about it too much. Prolines are pretty stout. I've torn the sidewalls of Traxxas brand tires but never Prolines
The 1079 Bow Ties were track tires, like the Holeshots & Crimefighters.
They are a good tire just on an older style 3.2 maxx rim.
I scored a set for $14 shipped & they are like brand new, I think your gonna like them.
