Default In need of new tires!!!!

Today I went to the track in Rotunda Florida and I had only my street tires, and they were bald so I had no traction even on the street. So I am wondering what tires I should buy to run on a clay dirt track?


Thanks

Can I see a picture of the track? For clay, Panther Switches or Losi Pink Taper Pins work good.

Bowties on a clay track? AND M3 compound? Those will be horrible for traction. Bowties are for lommy tracks. Also, TRXRUSTLER, you can race with a 3s lipo and brushless. If it is hardpacked, the tires I suggested would be good. Losi's exclusive tire for clay is their pink compound.
