In dirty and muddy conditions, there is nothing better than a fresh set of deep tread tractor tires. One of the aliases of the mud tires, “Rice and Cane,” refer to the purpose or landscape they were originally designed for within the farming and agriculture industry. The Fling Kings by JConcepts are the first RC Mega SCT tire, specifically designed to throw mud, dirt, gravel and grass just like the real thing.

The giant-sized tires are tall enough to dance through the deepest RC loam, however, it’s the tall lugs that separate them from the rest. The 1:1 tires were hand-cut to produce the most wicked looking tires on the block. The JConcepts tires are uniquely built to replicate a hand-cut set, however, deep tread remains to do the “mega” land damage the drivers and enthusiasts crave.

One of the most impressive details about the SCT Fling Kings, they are designed for 3.0 x 2.2” standard SCT wheels, making them even more appealing. No details were spared on these mud runners, the V-type tread is replicated to a T and the top of the tread carries a slight recess adding a little touch of depth to the appearance. Off to the side, the tire lettering hits hard with retro style JConcepts lettering, Fling King logo and crown with #3151 part number for easy identification.

The super soft "green" compound which is recommended for dirt, grass and asphalt feels noticeably sticky and has expanding characteristics during flat out high-speed runs. The JConcepts tires include the Dirt-Tech closed cell inserts made famous by their gray color and durability. The package is complete and backed with JConcepts customer support and racing heritage.

Notes from the team –

The JConcepts tires mount directly to Hustle, Hazard and Rulux 3.0 x 2.2” wheels which feature 12mm hex mounting capability for a vast assortment of SCT trucks on the market. The Fling Kings will dig hard and test the performance, durability and power of any RC vehicle. Its encouraged to choose running conditions carefully, beef up your rig to handle the grip and get ready for a wild dirt roosting RC experience. The SCT version of the Fling Kings are directional and based off the sizing of the standardized wheel in the industry. The side-wall of the tire is marked L and R for easy identification for mounting orientation.
