VTR Suburbs 2.2″
for 1:10 Off-Road Buggy Rear
#8232-002 X2 (Medium)
#8232-03 M4 (Super Soft)
#8232-17 MC (Clay)

This is a pair of Suburbs VTR Buggy Rear Tires. The Suburbs tread is known all around the RC World for being the go-to tire for Indoor Clay and Outdoor Blue Groove track conditions. Now, the Iconic tread pattern has achieved a new level of performance with the Suburbs VTR 2.4”. Before it was released to the public the Suburbs VTR tire TQ’d and Won the Biggest 1:10 Off-Road Race of the Year – 2WD Mod at the Pro-Line Cactus Classic with Dakotah Phend behind the wheel! It is rare to debut a new product that dominates right out of the gate so quickly. Now you can that very same performance for yourself with the release of the VTR 2.4” line-up. The VTR tires and wheels introduce the horizontal mounting style common in 1:8 Nitro and bring it to the precision environment of the 1:10 racing scene, resulting in the lightest tire/wheel package ever produced. The tire mounting surface has been increased from 2.2” to 2.4” giving the tire a lower profile sidewall and ultimately more traction. Test drivers immediately noticed the improved agility and traction that the VTR tires provide when combined with Pro-Line’s VTR wheels.

Type-R Clear Bodies
for Hot Bodies D812 & D413
#3417-00 D413
#3424-00 D812

These are Type-R clear bodies for HB D413 and HB D812. Now you can have the same body that Ty Tessmann runs on his D413 and D812: Type-R! Type-R came from the mind of Pro-Line Team Driver Ty Tessmann with a unique mid-cab look and undercut side pods that break away from all of the recent cab forward trends. The Type-R body fits perfectly around the triangulated shock towers of the D413 and features kick up in the rear of the body for balanced front to rear down force. The Type-R body Also fits perfectly around the D812 1/8 Nitro Buggy parts and features kick up in the rear of the body for balanced front to rear down force. Pro-Line’s new Type-R body style is a single piece body unlike the stock 3-piece screw together unit, which is difficult to paint and mount. If you have the D413 buggy or D812 buggy, then you NEED to get Pro-Line’s Type-R body!
