Pro-Line 1/8-scale Bow Tie Buggy Tire

16 May, 2007

What tire has more national championship wins then any other tire? If you guessed Bow Tie then you’re right on the money. Introducing the Bow Tie tread design for 1:8 Buggies. The 1:8 Bow-Tie stems from years and years of research and development from its 1:10 scale and monster truck counterparts.

“We have taken everything we have learned from those tires and designed a tire that would perform to the best of its capabilities”, says Mark Pavidis, Product Development Supervisor for Pro-Line. Pro-Line team driver Chad Bradley’s first reported that it is the next contender on blue-groove, hooked-up surfaces after testing them at the Farm II.

The Bow-Tie’s design provides unsurpassed forward bite due to the horizontal, straight-edge styling. Another unique feature of the Bow-Tie is the tapered outer pin design. This tapered effect resists ruts in corners ensuring for greater cornering consistency.
