I just wanted to make a comparison video on these Proline Hyrax knock offs sold by Amazon. You can get these mounted for $41 for a set of four. Or unmounted for $21 for a set of four. Both are on Prime.

I love the knock offs as long as they are not complete garbage. I see it like this. You could easily be into a rig for a grand. One thousand dollars for a toy truck. Some of us have three or four trucks. You could be in a real Jeep for that, pay off a cc, or go on a nice vacation. I love the sport of RC crawling in the yard with my son. I would rather buy knock offs and use the saved money for bills. That's just me. I know some one will say I'm completely wrong because of........ That's cool. You do you and I'm going to be me.

I recently joined a Facebook club for the SCX103 and I'm very new to brushless motors as I wanted to replace the brush one with. I got cramped on so bad when I asked was there a cheaper option then the hobby wing 2 in 1 fusion motor. Later. The guy told me to go to Walmart and buy a New Bright with my cheap self this is not the hobby for me!

Been running real and knockoff Hyrax in two Trx4's for over a year and there is very little difference in performance across all terrain and weather conditions. Certainly not enough of a difference to justify paying more for the real Hyrax. Slap those knockoffs on some metal beadlocks and you've got a solid setup.

I don’t know if the rubber compound has changed recently, but in 2022, the Injora Hyrax knock offs are great on rock here in Virginia. We have a lot of limestone, so I don’t know how they perform on other rock. They’re great in mud also. I have them on some stamped steel bead locks.

Pay $86 for the proline plus the steel wheels will cost you $140 at the LHS. Id rather take the less quality foam and pay only $39 for all 4 with the steel wheels.

Got these clone hyraxes with alloy rims. Bought them for the curiosity. Utter garbage and useless tires. Have a big crawler track in my garden. Used proline tsl sx superswamper xl before. Super grippy and has no problems. Dirt. Rocks. Planks. Wet dirt etcetc. The clones really struggled on simple things. The crawler become allmost useless. Mounted the tsx again. World difference. Dont buy it. Rims are ok quality. Screws are allso lo quality. So dont overtight. Dont use locktite. I did not. And stripped several screws. Changed for higher quality steel screws. I think this is the last time ill buy clonestuff.
@cameracorpus3 жыл бұрын
These are a compromise. I've used them for a good while, and I consider them about equal to a modded canyon tire. Also, remember, if Proline comes with good foams for your crawler, you have another expense on top of the generics. You are correct also concerning the screw quality with the wheels. Almost every set of Chinese wheels has broken screws. Sometimes the heads just randomly pop off.

Maybe, but not likely. They are also not the same compound. That being said these tires are better than predator proline hyrax. They have more grip for some reason they are almost half the price though. If you abuse the heck out of them they will wear out faster.

If proline priced them reasonably than people wouldn't resort to counterfeit.
