Does anyone have any recommendations of 1/10 off-road tyres for use on tarmac?

Cheers

I like schumacher road and track they are on schumacher website under 1/10 on road, few different compounds I use the greens, they also have the venom tyres bit more rounded don't seem to last as long though.

ProLine Inversions would be a good tread, and in fact I bet they will offer a ton of grip on tarmac... just no tread life at all since they are only available in ProLine's softest compounds :lol:

Probably then the question is also: Where do you want to be with grip and tread life? You can get tons of grip with softer compounds and in fact in that case many tires with pins work great, albeit especially the latter only last for a very short period of time. And should it be purely tarmac, or a bit of an allrounder? (In which case Schumacher blocks might be worth looking at).

Hi

I've tried the venoms in yellow compound, I wasn't overly happy with the grip. but they are very rounded, they might be better as the wear increases..I thought of trying the blocks I've never really run on tarmac I wanted to get out on the local tennis courts

You can get the venoms in white/silver compound which is much softer and works great on carpet and tarmac. they do benefit a lot from a bit of heat, more than your normal pin or spiked tyre
