The Ellipse, named after the center bar, built into the tread, is a complement to successful JConcepts tires already in the line-up. The "Web" style tire was built to compete on smooth high-grip indoor and outdoor surfaces which require a finely detailed connected bar pattern. The center section of the tire is a home run utilizing a diamond "home plate" footprint to provide massive surface area for better footprint and increased longevity. The web of extensions is unique and has a directional touch giving the racer the ultimate tune-ability.
Available unmounted for the Losi Mini-T (front/rear) and Mini-B (rear) the Ellipse tire is produced in the green compound which is extremely versatile for Mini vehicles. Jason Ruona explains, "The Ellipse has a slightly smaller carcass, it allows the driver to attack high-speed sections with more comfort. The "home plate" and connected web of tread has more stability high-speed and holds the tire together for today's high-powered vehicles. Connected tread wears significantly better which is useful racing indoors where a racer can break-in and race with the same pair all weekend."
Pair the new rear Ellipse tire with the #4002 Ellipse front for the ultimate indoor and grooved outdoor track conditions. The combination of the aggressive and directional tread pattern applied through the sticky green compound works very well in a variety of racing conditions. JConcepts support for mini off-road is at a high point with the release of a full line-up of tires, wheels, and bodies suited to the racetrack and for backyard bashing.
