Losi Rock Carver Tires (mini pit bulls) - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Donno how many of you guys seen these yet.

Losi has an officially licensed Pit-Bull tire on their hands called the "Rock Carvers"... they are modeled after the full size Rockers.

Here are some picks of mine.

mounted on my un-finished project

One of the top guys i compete with just got a set of these. He said he likes them a lot and they preformed well in his first comp running them.

I got my set there sweet, could have came with a pitbull sticker or something

that is one huge bead they got on that tire to I was gonna mount them to some VF wheels and I dont think the bead will fit in there..

I wish the same. I'd like them to be 5.5-5.75" tall.

I bought a set, ran one course with them then went back to my Panther's. I wasn't very impressed with them

I just bought a set of HPI Rock Grabbers and they look like they'll work a lot better than the Losi's....

cannoncrawler · 12-13-2008, 12:58 PM

just saw a set today, they seemed super sticky.

very new to all of this and just buying my first one, but I liked them!

I dont think they will knock panther off there thrown, but they will look good on my scaler.

Made buy a guy that goes by Create-A-Crawler. These are one of a dozen or so sets. He doesn't like mass producing stuff and changes designs often.

blutoylit · 12-28-2008, 11:07 PM

so how tall are these things? I've ran the rock claws & I know the'yre a good tire I was just wanting something slightly taller. If they were similar to the claws only a little taller they might be ideal

sloppy12 · 12-29-2008, 04:30 PM

I got a few runs on mine now. and I have to say they keep getting better I like the look of the tire they perform great. a 1.9 would be sweet to have but not if losi is gonna do it in that small size there using on the MRC.. I want around 4.25" for a 1.9..

They are ~5.2" tall and are comparable to the Claws. Really a nice alternative in an ever expanding category.
