JConcepts has been secretly developing the Smoothie 3 intending it for 1:10th dirt oval, and off-road, the 3rd generation has a host of new design elements incorporated into a new low-slung tire carcass.
In some conditions in off-road racing, there is no denying that a slick tire is the fastest way around the track. The Smoothie 3 carcass is lightweight, incorporates the scalloped tire beads into the design for even more innovation and weight considerations. Also, the tire sidewall lettering is now recessed for a clean contact patch for sidewall gluing.
The inside of the rear carcass has go-to-inner ribbing with repeated X-pattern with buried radial ribs to provide support. The sidewalls have ribs that extend up in off the bead area in an array of equally spaced positions to strengthen the sidewall. Released as a 2.2" bead mounting diameter, the JConcepts Smoothie 3 mount straight to the latest generation wheels for all important reactive feel. The carefully profiled slightly thickened tire carcass rolls through the turns with efficiency while the maximum smooth surface area grips the specialty surfaces like no other.
The Smoothies include Dirt-Tech inserts which have made an immediate presence on the racing scene since their release. The identifiable gray color with custom sculpted features, are blended into the insert material which provides racers a durable option capable of being used in medium to extremely high-traction conditions.
