Best front tyres for Team Associated RC10 B5 on loose-over-hard dirt?

For your RC10 B5, try a 2WD-front AKA Gunslinger. Its pin-and-wave tread is intended for loose dirt, so it should give the front tires more bite than a hard-pack rib when there’s dust or loose dirt over the firm base.

• Start with Super Soft for a cool or especially low-grip track. The Super Soft Long Wear version is an option when you need more durability.
• If the surface is mostly hard-packed with only a thin dusty layer, look for a front tire with dense tread, which suits hard surfaces with loose material on top.

A softer tire can improve steering but will wear faster, especially on abrasive dirt. If the B5 still pushes, tell me the front tire and compound you’re using now, plus whether the track is dusty or has a deeper loose layer.

For the B5, try an AKA Gunslinger 2WD-front first. Its wave-style tread is listed for loose dirt, making it a better match for loose material over a hard base than a slick or carpet-style front tire.

Choose the Super Soft compound if the track is cool or low grip; the Super Soft Long Wear option trades some grip for durability. Softer compounds generally help on packed surfaces with loose material on top.

If the surface is mostly hard-packed and dusty, try a Raw Speed Radar 2WD-front instead. It’s listed for indoor and outdoor dirt and clay, with a tread designed for pinpoint steering.

Change only the front tires first and compare corner entry and mid-corner steering. If it still pushes, the surface may be too dusty for that compound, or the cause may be elsewhere in the setup.

JConcepts Double Dees V2 2WD-front is a solid dirt option, but for your loose-over-hard track I’d try the AKA Gunslinger first. The Gunslinger is specifically matched to loose dirt; Double Dees is listed more generally for dirt and has a medium grip rating.

Double Dees V2 is available in Blue and Green compounds. For JConcepts compounds, Blue is soft and suited to cool conditions, while Green is super soft for slick or cool conditions.

If you already have Double Dees, they’re worth testing before buying another tire. Use Green when the track is cool or slick, and Blue in milder conditions. If the front still pushes, compare against Gunslingers under the same conditions. Change only the front tires between runs so you can tell whether the tread and compound helped.

The JConcepts Sprinter and Double Dees V2 are both listed for dirt, so either is worth testing on your B5. I can’t confirm from the available tire information that the Sprinter will steer better than the Double Dees on loose-over-hard dirt.

Double Dees V2 is specifically listed as a 2WD-front dirt tire with a medium grip rating. Sprinter is listed for dirt and sand, but there isn’t a matching front-specific grip rating to compare directly.

Since you’re fighting front push, test the Sprinter against your Double Dees in the same JConcepts compound and track conditions. For JConcepts tires, the guide suggests Green for cool conditions, Blue for mild, and Black for cold.

If the Sprinter gives more steering, keep it; if not, the push may be coming from setup or tire condition rather than the tread choice.
