Fresh out of the development lab, the ReHab tires are the latest tire for 1/8th buggy racing. Based on its larger cousin, the Detox, the ReHab tire brings all the details of a successful tire into a smaller tread package for smoother track conditions, consistent racing and high-end performance. Simply put, if you like the Detox, you'll love the performance of the ReHab.

The design revolves around the center structure which has medium sized, dense lugs arranged in a stacked configuration. The lugs have strategically placed cuts and grooves to allow flex in dusty conditions to perform even if the track is deteriorating in a long main. The outer portion of the tread fits together like building blocks, with shapes placed together that nest well but also work together to flex laterally to provide steadfast side-bite. The tread tapers off cleanly to the outer side-wall giving a smooth transition during hard cornering.

JConcepts driver Cole Ogden has already used the ReHab with amazing success. The ace driver from Georgia has put together quite the resume with the new tire winning at races such as the FORCE Off-Road Series, Georgia Off-Road Series and Colonels Classic. A big fan of the Detox, Cole has used the ReHab when the lower tread height was an advantage for 30 minute main events.

All new tires include the latest insert from JConcepts. The Dirt-Tech insert, popularized by its durable nature and gray color, will give customers the combo package they have been waiting for from JConcepts.
