The \"48's\" as a lot ofenthusiasts called them, were special and featured a Zig \/ Zag tread pattern,deep cleats, and the large overall diameter. The size of the tire, madecrushing cars possible and they even made their way into a Hollywood featurefilm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIn the RC Monster truck world, the \"48's\" have never beenavailable, until now. JConcepts had multiple goals in mind while designing thenew Rangers tire from the ground up. First, in RC, the 2.2\" wheel is perhapsthe most popular wheel in the industry and using that as a base point, theRangers tire started to take shape. The popular wheel size also fits around thesuspension geometry on a vast assortment of trucks, making it veryversatile. Second, there is already a 2.2\" class in RC Monster Truckracing so the Rangers drop perfectly into that segment with no need foradjustments or changes to the rules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eGetting the look right was important and JConceptsincorporated a lot of detail into these beauties making them striking for anyproject or shelf queen. To build a great looking retro, the Rangers needed tolook the part and thanks to the Zig \/ Zag tread, scale depth and side-walllettering, the tire has an unmistakable look. The included open cell \"React\"inserts fill the void inside and help stabilize the large contact patch of thefamous looking tires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe low-profile stance stays very flat during race coursecompetition, speed-runs or general use. The tire carcass profile holds theweight extremely low while the design of the tire beads allow just the rightamount of contact patch for gluing and application. The Rangers measure in at5.57 x 2.95 x 2.2\" and are available in two different compounds. The tires arebuilt for the #3380 Midwest 2.2\" wheel (available separately) which bring scaleand authenticity to the next level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe soft \"blue\" compound which is recommended fordirt, grass and asphalt feels noticeably mushy and sticky and has expandingcharacteristics similar to off-road racing outdoor compounds. The\"gold\" compound feels harder to the touch and excels on carpet, AstroTurfand polished concrete surfaces and expands less during high-speeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAt the races -\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Rangers tires are already a winner, taking the HighVoltage RC 4-Link Nationals in a sweep with an amazing debut performance in thehands of Russ Bryant (1\u003csup data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003est\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eplace), Sonny Santucci (2\u003csup data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003end\u003c\/sup\u003eplace) and Matt Stoltz (3\u003csup data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003erd\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eplace).
