Key Features
- Legendary Multi-time World and National Championship winning design — The Hole-Shot design has dominated RC racing across all scales for decades, earning its place as one of the most successful tyre profiles ever created. This proven pedigree means you're not buying a new experiment; you're buying a design that has consistently delivered victories at the highest levels of competition.
- Advanced M3 Soft compound formula — Available in Pro-Line's World Championship and extremely proprietary M3 (Soft) compound, this formula provides the optimal balance of grip, durability, and consistency that serious racers demand. The M3 compound is engineered to excel in a variety of track conditions, making it a versatile choice for both practice and competitive racing.
- Wider contact patch for improved traction — The 2.0 generation features a significantly wider contact patch compared to previous generations, which translates directly to more rubber on the ground and dramatically improved traction in all conditions. This wider footprint means better acceleration, superior cornering grip, and more consistent lap times whether you're racing on clay, carpet, asphalt, or mixed-surface tracks.
- Unique mini-pin design with increased pin count — The distinctive tread pattern features more pins than before, creating a refined surface that provides the optimum level of traction in dusty, hard-packed, and grooved conditions. These mini-pins work together to maintain consistent grip while also providing excellent self-cleaning properties to prevent clogging in damp or dusty environments.
- Highly reinforced tyre carcass — Built to withstand the extreme forces generated during competitive short course racing, the reinforced tyre carcass provides durability without sacrificing the responsive handling characteristics that make these tyres so quick. This robust construction means your investment in these premium tyres will deliver lap after lap of consistent performance.
- Long life lightweight closed cell foam inserts included — Each pair comes complete with high-quality foam inserts that have been specifically selected to complement the tyre's performance characteristics. These closed-cell foam inserts are both lightweight and long-lasting, providing consistent support and helping to maintain the tyre's shape under the demanding forces of competitive racing.
- Dual profile design for front and rear use — The 2.2-inch outer profile combined with the 3.0-inch inner profile creates a unique dual-size design that allows these tyres to be mounted on both front and rear wheels. This versatility simplifies your spares box and gives you confidence that you have a complete set of proven rubber for your entire short course truck.
- Made in the USA since 1982 — Pro-Line has been manufacturing premium RC tyres in the United States for over four decades. This commitment to domestic manufacturing ensures consistent quality, rapid innovation, and the ability to respond to feedback from the world's best RC racers. When you buy Pro-Line tyres, you're supporting advanced manufacturing and a company with deep roots in the RC racing community.
Technical Performance
The Pro-Line Hole Shot 2.0 M3 tyres represent a significant advancement in short course truck tyre technology. Built on the foundation of one of the most successful tyre designs in RC history, the 2.0 generation incorporates refined engineering that addresses the specific needs of modern short course racing. The wider contact patch increases the tyre's footprint on the track surface, which directly translates to superior traction and more consistent grip levels throughout the race. The advanced mini-pin tread pattern has been carefully engineered to provide optimal grip in dusty, hard-packed, and grooved conditions — the exact surfaces that dominate short course racing venues across the UK and Europe.
The M3 soft compound is formulated using Pro-Line's proprietary chemistry, developed through extensive testing at World Championship events and refined based on feedback from professional RC racers. This compound provides the perfect balance between grip and tyre life, ensuring you won't sacrifice consistency as the tyre wears. The highly reinforced tyre carcass has been engineered to handle the extreme lateral and longitudinal forces generated during aggressive short course racing, providing responsive handling without flex or deformation. The inclusion of long-life lightweight closed-cell foam inserts means the tyres will maintain their shape and performance characteristics throughout your racing session, whether you're running practice laps or competing in a gruelling multi-round championship event.
These 1/10 scale tyres fit standard short course truck wheels and are compatible with both front and rear positions, giving you complete flexibility in how you set up your truck. The dual profile design — with a 2.2-inch outer diameter and 3.0-inch inner diameter — is specifically engineered for short course trucks, providing the geometric properties that deliver both speed and confidence through the technical sections of a short course racing layout.
