Well I want some new tires to throw on the back of my nitro rustler and the front. I had dirthawgs on there but they now have holes in them. I want something different for on the track and around the house. I was thinking about the Pro-Line Gladiators. Does anyone know what the quality in these tires are like? I will be using them on Pavement, grass, dirt and wood chips. Will these tires hold up to these surfaces any good? I will also be putting Edges on the front.

on pavement they will wear the smaller pins but still have the rest of the tyre and the rest of the tread, so yeah they are good for pavement, but preferable after using them in dirt...

I have the softest compound u can get with the glads, and i have to say they are awesome, provide massive grip anywhere, but do not go on pavement, i went on there for a tank and they wore very quickly, i have lost the edge on the pins now, and they have shortened a fair bit, I would reccomend getting a set of something else for road for the rear tyres, dirt hawgs, and then have the glads for dirt and grass etc. That way u will have tyres that last for ages, and provide grip everywhere. My mate has dirt hawgs for road, and bowties for dirt, grass etc and hes had them tyres for a year, using them in the right condtions, just rip the old dirt hawgs of the old rims and get a new pair.

I still have some mashers I gotta try and tune my truck for. I just find they rob my low end like nothing else and I like the look of the right size tires. I made a mistake by buying the mashers in my opinion.

if they are new or nearly new, someone on the bay may buy them, im the same, never liked the over sized wheels, they put more load on the drivetrain and dont look good.
