| Chisel II 2.2" Tires (G8) | 2 |
| Foam Inserts | 2 |
The Chisel II is built around a different idea. Grip comes from controlled edges, not just more rubber.
From the first look, the open tread tells the story. Large, sculpted lugs are spaced to create clear voids, giving the tire room to bite, clear, and reset with every rotation. Instead of packing up or glazing over, the tread stays active and continues to find fresh edges that grab rock, dirt, and loose terrain.
Each lug is shaped to do real work. The stepped faces and cut features allow the tread to dig under load and hold its shape, creating strong forward bite without feeling vague or unpredictable. When the rig loads up on a climb, those edges engage and convert throttle into forward drive instead of slip.

When the rig loads up on a climb, those edges engage and convert throttle into forward drive instead of slip.
The sidewall carries that same aggression. Prominent side lugs extend traction beyond the center tread, giving the Chisel II the ability to lock in during off camber lines and uneven transitions. When the tire rolls onto its side, it does not lose grip. It finds a new edge and keeps pulling.
Underneath, the carcass is tuned to flex with intention. It compresses enough to let the tread engage deeper, helping the tire wrap into terrain while maintaining structure through the lugs. That balance keeps the tire responsive, controlled, and ready to adapt as conditions change.
This is not about maximizing contact.
This is about maximizing bite and staying in control.

The open tread pattern increases surface contact across rocks and hard terrain, creating consistent traction instead of relying on isolated lug engagement.

Reduced lug height minimizes squirm under load, improving throttle response and keeping the tire planted during climbs and technical maneuvers.

The flexible carcass allows the tire to compress and conform to obstacles, increasing the contact patch and improving traction without relying solely on compound softness.

Aggressive sidewall elements provide additional grip during off-camber driving and uneven transitions, helping maintain control when the rig leans or shifts weight.
The G8 compound is engineered to deliver a versatile balance between traction, stability, and wear resistance. It provides dependable grip on dry rock, hardpack, and mixed terrain while maintaining enough firmness to prevent excessive tread squirm under load. This translates into smoother throttle modulation, predictable breakaway characteristics, and consistent performance from the first obstacle to the last. G8 holds its structure during sidehill traverses and long trail sessions, making it ideal for drivers who want reliable, repeatable traction without sacrificing tire life. For all-around crawling and extended runs, G8 delivers performance that stays steady and controlled.
