The DIALED-RC Version 7 tire is a Rattler Diamond Back mini pin/bar pattern designed to work in wet loam and dry thick dust.
Designer Gene 'the machine' Hickerson had this to say:
V7- This tire is my version of the latest V and Diamond cutout craze currently sweeping the RC tire market. We used the diamond pattern to create a hybrid paddle bar/pin tire that will provide bite in all conditions, from fluffy to dusty, and from wet to dry. The cutouts create grip by cutting through the fluff and allows the tread sift dust and clear out in wet conditions. This tire is a cross between the V4 and V6 tread, or a AKA Grid Iron and a Jconcepts Reflex. My first test with these was at the World Famous Dirt Raceway in Perris California. SSLW was amazing when dry after a groove developed, and SS was beyond amazing at night when wet. The next comparable tire we have was the V4. Both worked great but I felt faster and more connected to the track with the V7. The only negative I have found is wear is higher on very abrasive grooves due to the large cutouts, so choose compounds accordingly. Be aware that this is a directional pattern so take care when mounting them to the wheels.The outer edge pins forward gives less side bite traction and less steering. Running them the reverse way gives more steering and side bite traction but can catch ruts more. Either way gives amazing forward grip.
