GrP grips and cubics - Chitown R/C - Chicago's Largest RC Car and Truck Community

I was wondering how these will work for outdoor LH? the cubics look good for a bluegroove surface(maybe good indoors), the grips look good for semi-loose / loamy track, they look similar to bowties, Has anyone used these personally? Im not looking for biased opinions on tires, I'm looking for responses from people that have used them hands on, or know people that have, thx guys

I've seen the cubics used indoor at Leisure and they seem to hook pretty good. I don't know the benefits of them over the proven boas and switches but they weren't sliding all over the place or anything.

thx for the info Tex..........I have heard they are dialed on most hardpack surfaces but I personally do not know myself, The grips are suppose to be good tire as well, they look more suited for outdoor applications

Cubics are good for indoor.

if they are good for bluegroove, they should be decent on damp track as well

Jesus trevor just buy some already! LMAO!!!! You know you want them

my exact thought

well, bowtie mtr are my next set, but these cubics will follow those for another option to use

How about the HPI nubz?? are they any good??

I ran the nubz out doors at LH until the track blued up then they didn't work so well. I ran the cubics in minnesota last weekend on a loamy wet track with a blue groove front sweeper and they worked great all over. I have a set of grips and I don't like them on any track. I got them when they first came out and they are way too firm much firmer than the cubics.
I'd buy a set of cubics, bow tie mtr's, cf mtr's, switches, and that'd be about it for outdoors.
You never know what tire is going to work so I have at least one set of every truggy tire made.

Casketman · (#15 (**permalink**))

Yea they are,what else is there?

And it seems like just about anything that comes out will be a copy of something else to some point.
