Pro-Line 1/8 Crimewave S3 Front/Rear Off-Road Buggy Tires Overivew
The Pro-Line Crimewave is a next-generation micro-pin race tire developed specifically for modern 1:8 off-road buggy competition. Designed to perform on today’s groomed and evolving track surfaces, the Crimewave combines a directional tread pattern, progressive pin spacing, and reinforced carcass construction to deliver consistent grip, precise steering response, and long-lasting performance.
Engineered to excel on hard-packed and high-grip conditions while remaining adaptable to transitional surfaces, the Crimewave provides racers with a wider performance window throughout an entire race day. Multiple compound options allow fine-tuning for temperature and surface changes without the need to switch tread designs, making it a dependable, tunable solution for drivers seeking predictable handling and sustained speed from qualifying through the mains.
Refer to Parts & Support (Pro-Line and AKA Tire Compound) for guidance on compound differences and to help answer any related questions.
Directional Grip That Drives Forward
The directional tread pattern is engineered to maximize forward drive and braking stability while maintaining smooth steering feel. This allows racers to stay aggressive as track conditions evolve without sacrificing control.
Progressive Pin Engagement
Strategically angled pin spacing improves how the tire keys into the surface, creating strong traction without the edgy feel common in traditional micro-pin designs.
Race-Day Stability Built In
Updated inner webbing strengthens the tire structure, helping maintain a consistent contact patch under load. The result is improved cornering confidence and responsiveness in demanding sections.
Consistency That Lasts Longer
The center tread is designed to balance wear and stability, allowing the tire to maintain performance deeper into long mains and multi-round race formats.
Tune Performance Without Changing Tread
Available in M3, M4, S3, S4, and S5 compounds, the Crimewave platform allows racers to fine-tune feel and traction using familiar compound options instead of switching tire designs.
