These premium front tyres have been engineered specifically for today's high-grip carpet tracks, representing a significant leap forward in performance for RC enthusiasts across the UK and beyond.

These tyres are the result of extensive testing by Pro-Line's factory racing team, ensuring that every aspect of their design translates real-world performance benefits to your 1/10 scale stadium truck.

If you're serious about competitive RC racing on carpet tracks in the UK, or simply want to maximise your stadium truck's potential during training sessions, the Prism T CR3 represents the fastest, most advanced front tyre choice available today. These tyres pair perfectly with Pro-Line's Prism T Rear carpet tyre to create an unbeatable combination that will transform your carpet racing experience.
Key Features
- Ultra-Sharp Prism Shaped Pins in Centre Section — The middle of the tyre is covered with precisely engineered, ultra-sharp prism-shaped pins that bite aggressively into carpet surfaces, delivering maximum forward grip and acceleration from the moment you press the throttle.
- Wedge Style Pins on Outside Edges — The outer edges feature traditional wedge-style pins that work in harmony with the central prism pins to deliver incredible steering response on small and tight carpet tracks without the harsh, unpredictable feel associated with full pin tyre designs.
- Massive Steering Without Edgy Feel — The combination of ultra-sharp central pins and wedge-style outer pins creates a steering characteristic that is both responsive and smooth, allowing you to carry more speed through corners without sacrificing control or predictability.
- Knife-Edge Pin Orientation Front to Back and Side to Side — Every pin on the Prism T has been positioned with its knife edge pointing both front to back and side to side, maximising grip contact with the carpet surface and ensuring pins remain sharp and effective even as they wear down during extended use.
- Long-Lasting and Super Consistent Performance — The CR3 compound and intelligent pin design work together to provide tyre wear characteristics that remain consistent lap after lap, session after session, meaning you can rely on predictable handling throughout the tyre's lifespan.
- Ideal for Small and Tight Indoor Carpet Tracks — The Prism T front tyre has been specifically engineered for the demands of indoor carpet circuits, delivering the steering response and grip that tight, technical track layouts require.
- Pairs Perfectly with Pro-Line Prism T Rear Tyres — These front tyres are designed as part of a complete system and should be combined with Pro-Line's Prism T rear carpet tyre for optimal performance and handling balance across all driving scenarios.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line brings decades of tyre engineering expertise to every product, with manufacturing standards and quality control processes developed over more than four decades of racing tyre production.
Technical Performance
The PRO 1/10 Prism T CR3 Front tyres deliver exceptional technical performance through a combination of advanced compound chemistry and precision pin engineering. The CR3 medium compound has been formulated to provide improved grip and consistency across many different styles of carpet surface, whether you're racing on tight indoor tracks with grippy carpet or surfaces with more varied texture. The tyre diameter and width have been optimised for 2.2-inch stadium truck front wheels, ensuring perfect fitment and weight distribution for balanced handling. The pin geometry, with its unique combination of ultra-sharp prism shapes in the central contact area and wedge-style pins on the periphery, creates a tyre that generates grip through multiple contact mechanisms simultaneously. The knife-edge orientation of each pin means that even as the tyre wears during use, the pins maintain their sharpness and effectiveness, delivering consistent lap times throughout the tyre's usable life. This engineering approach is particularly important in competitive carpet racing, where predictability and reliability are as important as raw grip. The integration with Pro-Line's complete Prism T system means these front tyres work in perfect harmony with matching rear tyres, creating a balanced, predictable chassis setup that allows drivers to focus on smooth inputs and racecraft rather than fighting inconsistent tyre behaviour. Built to the exacting standards of Pro-Line's factory racing programme, these tyres represent genuine competition-grade equipment suitable for serious racers and ambitious hobbyists alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between the CR3 and CR4 carpet tyre compounds? — The CR3 is a medium hardness compound, whilst the CR4 is a softer compound. The CR3 offers a balance between grip and tyre longevity, making it suitable for a wide range of carpet surfaces and racing conditions. The softer CR4 provides maximum grip in specific conditions and has demonstrated winning performance at top-level championships, though it may wear faster depending on your driving style and track surface. Choose CR3 if you want consistent, reliable performance across different sessions and conditions; choose CR4 if you want maximum raw grip and are willing to accept slightly faster wear rates.
- Will these front tyres fit my stadium truck? — These tyres are designed for 2.2-inch stadium truck front wheels. Before purchasing, confirm that your vehicle uses 2.2-inch front wheels. The Prism T front tyre should be paired with Pro-Line's Prism T rear tyre for optimal performance and handling balance.
- How do Prism T tyres compare to other carpet racing tyres? — The Prism T design is unique in its combination of ultra-sharp prism-shaped pins in the centre section with wedge-style pins on the edges. This hybrid approach delivers massive steering response on tight tracks without the harsh, edgy feel of full pin designs. The tyres have been tested by Pro-Line's factory racing team and already proven at championship level, offering superior consistency and predictability compared to earlier tyre generations.
- What type of tracks are these tyres best suited for? — The Prism T CR3 is specifically engineered for small and tight indoor carpet racing tracks, such as those found at dedicated RC venues across the UK. The aggressive pin design and medium CR3 compound make them particularly effective on technical, tight layouts where steering response and corner grip are critical performance factors.
- Are these tyres suitable for outdoor use? — These are carpet-specific racing tyres designed exclusively for indoor carpet track conditions. They are not suitable for outdoor or off-road use. For outdoor terrain, you would need dedicated off-road buggy or truck tyres.
- How long do these tyres typically last? — Tyre longevity depends on driving style, track surface, maintenance, and driving intensity. The CR3 compound and intelligent pin design are engineered for consistent performance throughout the tyre's usable life. The knife-edge pin orientation ensures pins remain sharp even as they wear, maintaining grip consistency session to session. Regular cleaning and storage in cool, dry conditions will help extend tyre life.
- Do I need both front and rear Prism T tyres? — Whilst you can mix and match different Pro-Line carpet tyres, the Prism T front and rear tyres have been designed as a complete system. Pro-Line specifically recommends pairing the Prism T front with the Prism T rear for ideal carpet racing performance, balanced handling characteristics, and optimal predictability across all driving scenarios.
