When you think about the early days of Monster Trucks, the most distinguishing object about the vehicle were the giant tires. The Golden Years of monster trucks brought out all the best components of a builder, driver, and innovator into one package. However, if it were not for the big, round, and bubbly tires, the segment might have been lost forever. The Golden Years for the Losi Mini LMT monster truck by JConcepts are another reminder of the commitment the team has to the beginnings of an industry.
An RC builder or modeler always has a new idea or ideal truck from the past they would like to emulate, and now, with the Golden Years, finishing off the monster truck of your dreams can be a reality. For JConcepts, the slate was once again swiped clean when designing the new tire. With learned behavior from 1:10th scale, it was clear a few things would be added for new performance and scale appearance. The full-cleat tire just looks so vintage, and JConcepts explored new heights and lug creation techniques to ensure the new tire had the depth of a champion.
The scale chevron pattern might look like the run of the mill; however, a lot of work has been placed into these beauties to allow the trucks to grip surfaces ranging from carpet, turf and, of course, dirt. The size of the tire is important, and JConcepts has designed these to have an appropriate appearance that make little vintage monsters, well, monsters. The round profile is there too, with foam inserts included and the design built into the carcass, your truck can have the bubbly look of the 1980’s.
Sidewall lettering is very detailed on the Golden Years, allowing drivers to travel back in time, shining them up and displaying them for the fans. The Golden Years are available in soft, blue compound and supplied with open cell inserts to cushion those hard landings and fill up the carcass. The tires are also available pre-mounted on mini-Tribute wheels featuring the popular gray color wheel and beadlock combination. Just like their larger counterparts, the mini-Tribute wheels feature a bolt in hex adaptor, planetary cover with open and closed faces for versatility.
