1.9 Tyres - Need Tread

Jayboy74 wrote:I'm looking for a set of really chunky treaded 1.9's, just watching how the original tyres grip on the Honcho, seem a) too soft and tend to bend before gripping Thats normal, is just the tyre bagging out and b) not deep enough to allow grip. Flat irons (stock honcho tyres) actually have one of the deepest treads of the scale tyres

Flat irons are actually a awesome all round tyre. But they need to be broken in, Keep using them and they will get better.

I know some may give me curry about its how you drive, but what do you guys reccomend as an excellent large treaded tyre for my purposes (GRIP)

It does come down to the way you drive as well, BUT....
if you really want to change tyres look at Pro-line super swamper SX's...The tread depth is actually LESS than a flat iron, but they are a way softer compound as well.
Keep in mind if you go softer on the compound you will need to change to a stiffer inner foam. The softer compounds generally dont give you enough support and you rig will fall over constantly.

I like the RC4WD Mudslingers with their big tread beads, but is there something else, with say soft compound in the walling for flex but the tread pattern is harder to allow for bite, make sense?

Forget mudslingers/boggers...they are sh!t for everything except mud, and even then they arent the best.
Rule of thumb, any tyre from RC4wd looks awesome. But they generally dont perform.
Also the bigger the tread blocks the worse things generally get, cause they load up with dirt & mud becoming slicks. Also the tread blocks will fold into each other causing the slick effect again
