Crawler Canyon Junkview: fake Ottsix KLR/M 1.9"

Amazooooon!! It might not be the best, but it can be awfully cheap! The Junkviews, where we pinch the pennies as hard as we dare!
This is the Junkview of the 1.9" Injora "Mud Terrain Wheel Tires" which are a nearly spot-on replica of the Ottsix KLR/M.

Now!!! who does not like a cheap set of good tires. Not this guy. I have 10 trucks seven grandkids good cheap tires are a blessing. Enjoyed the review. Definitely hair bun worthy.!!!

[@SivartCustomRCs]

Great review as usual. I've noticed that Injora has upped their game lately. In the 24 market, they are killing it. I assume they have applied their new tire compound to the 1/10th world.

[@JPWirt]

I agree!

[@Br0rB]

Their small scale tires are awesome. I have several sets in S5, and one in, I believe, S4 compound. The ones tested here are S3, according to the Injora site. That should be just about perfect for 10th scale. Injoras other 24 scale stuff has gotten better and better, and most of it is pretty awesome - without being stupid expensive. I have a lot of their stuff in my 24s. :)

[@DJ.1001]

These tires truly excel in debris covered, mossy, rough rock. They are better than many of the tires you rate higher than them. That being said I understand why you do so. On clean smoother, cleaner rock where your testing is performed.

[@gmummy]

Not is the content top notch but no mid-roll ads - much appreciate it! Must have been a difficult decision!

[@VLevi89]

Wow, these were the very first set of tires I bought to replace my RTR junk. Since I have nothing to compare them to, I wasn't really sure how good they are, so seeing how they perform in the canyon was very informative! Really looking forward to see what kind of insert you end up using in them.

[@StoneMtnRC]

This should be a quick view, been contemplating buying a set but not now! Digging the weekly content

Electron's firing in my eyeballs 😅 that was awesome 👍 Ordered a set and used your link. Not sure if helps ya

Going to pick some up, thanks brother

[@mark-mj5dl]

I just did a test with these this weekend with 2 different vehicles and in some very slick terrain. I agree they were very easy to mount, i had no issues at all

[@XelsRC]

I bought a set of these and although they do really well on solid surfaces, I noticed that on any kind of loose media and they just spun out. I thought for sure you were gonna be replacing something after wheelin' wednesday. I love your video's and I want to personally say thank you for helping me build my best rig to date after watching your extensive library. Keep up the good work! You sir are a scholar and a gentlemen.

[@JagImaging]

Awesome review! Think Ill pick up a set to have! Really Impressed with Injora stuff lately .

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I might be even more impressed with the quality of machining on the wheels-- they were every bit as good as a "real" alloy beadlock. Injora is becoming genuinely good. We can't call them the new Integy, because Integy is still making the same dodgy quality stuff they have for decades.

[@JIPPERR_1]

Ordered. Indeed the compound is listed as 'S3 Super Soft' i believe they may be my ticket up to the top of what I call 'Mount Impossible'

[@marktree887]

Great performance

Got a set of these coming for my scx iii gladiator

[@rcarty419]

Always looked at these but never could spend money on Ottsix. Freaking love my ruptures....know they aren’t scale....but I’d go small for that normally anyways and any of this 4.75 stuff looks big, right? You da tire man!

[@derrickhays3627]

Great review love a surprise like that and they look good too! if I didn't have Baja claws already I'd get a set. Thanks again.

[@jbowman4269]

Finally I got something that you like 🤣 .. I got some homemade dual stages in mine jumbo pool noodle inner cut the stock foam for the outer. Maybe you can test pool noodle in some tires almost 9 lbs on my rig and definitely helps from keeping the tire from rolling over

[@gregmyers3389]

Wheels look good on Baseline, tires need to go on the Atlas! They look like a proper "wrecker" tire.....mmm

[@killerinstink9260]

Damn,we have been waiting for 11 days for Fake Klr/m tested with some proper insert 😂

[@brianmorrison2846]

How about an SCX10iii builders kit build. I got one preordered and would like to see your version before I start. Thanks in advance.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

While I do regard the Base Camp 10.3 better than the "old" 10.3, it's still not one of my favorites. The AR45 is a problematic axle, and the 10.3 chassis is... 😬 When I tested the RTR Base Camp, I could see potential, but it's not a model on my shortlist. My recommendation is before you even start to build the kit, order some essentials: different shocks, and brass wheel hexes. The shocks are leaky, and the hexes are stamped, so they LOVE to hold on to wheels and never let go. Good to see that they changed the front axle housing to a better panhard mount. The inclusion of the dig unit (provided that it's reasonably smooth) makes the Builder's Kit what I would consider to be the best 10.3 they've put out yet. Nevertheless, my nearly-unstoppable urge would be to put a TRX-4 Sport body on it.

[@brianmorrison2846]

@@CrawlerCanyon Would you consider building it if I sent you the kit and parts needed? I have a Jconcepts 70 GMC body painted and ready, or a Creep cab. Tires, wheels, Desart Lizards and a Fusion 2300 for it.

Bought the set of this for my short wheelbase truck (275mm), mount them on with the tread backwards..... waiting for the day to test😅 🎉 The nasty look of these tyres just got me)

[@Br0rB]

Those new compounds from Injora are really nice. I only have them in their tiny tires, for my small scale stuff, but they work so well. I have several 1.0" Injora tires in their S5 compund, and they are super soft, super grippy and pretty sticky. Also have some S4 compound, which are also really nice. It's cool that they have finally started using those compounds for their larger tires, as the 1.9 Injoras I have bought so far, in "who know what compound they are, compound" haven't been all that great. From my experience with their small tires, going with the S3 or S4 compound is probably a good choice. I'm thinking the S5 may be too soft, and not all that durable, for the much heavier 10th scale rigs, compared to 200-500g 24s.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

Injora says these are S3, so I cannot imagine an S5 in this size. It would have to come in an egg, like Silly Putty, and you would just form it into a tire shape around the wheel. 😂

[@Br0rB]

@@CrawlerCanyon haha, you're probably right. The S5 ones I have are amazing on the Scx24s, but in a large size they would probably wear extremely quickly, and be near impossible to mount. Love that they have bigger tires in a nice compound though. Just wish they did much sooner, before I spent nearly 100 bucks on some Prolines. 😂

[@Team_ReVolt]

9:51 WOW😮 I'm of to Amazon to place my order 😅 No need to see the rest 😁

[@OkieDokieBoi]

Nice! I ordered a set of these after watching your video. I've been through them all, but currently run nothing but JConcepts. I swear by them. But I can't wait to try these beauties. They feel just as good, if not better, than any of my others out of the package. Injora also makes another tire in the same compound with an awesome and really luggy tread pattern I think would make a great option for a video. They sit just below these (in video) on the Amazon site. They're called Injora "King Trekkers." These (in video) also have a name on the actual Injora site. They're called Injora "Kraken Klaws."

[@rayoxracing]

Did you try these injora?

[@OkieDokieBoi]

@rayoxracing yes, and I am going to be 100% honest. These are the worst tires I have ever stuck on any of my rigs. As a matter of fact, I won't even run the rig that they are on anymore. I just haven't had the time to switch them back out.

[@Loose_Lucy]

Is there a link to the beadlocks? Another great episode

[@CrawlerCanyon]

Huh. I thought I did link them, but when I looked them up only to find out they're not Injora but rather DKKY, I was doubly surprised. The beadlock rings are still (to me) horrible. There is a 5-spoke version of the wheel, which would mitigate it to a degree, but still not great. amzn.to/3JdRGt6

[@CasperRc81]

So recap from your clicking and the driver front tire I saw pause for a brief sec while the rears moved. My Scx10iii early bronco edition does the same thing on the AR45’s really caused by the 1200kv HW pro😂 and leverage . Is my universal pins are cracked but the drive inertia keeps them held in place and the interior of the knuckle . How did I figure this out well I looked at the inside part of the plastic Knuckle where your “ball joint” would be and you can see how the pins are slightly coming out of the block there pressed into and there is a little trench line in the plastic knuckle that the cracked pin has created backing out since it’s in two or three peace’s. It only only Does this under great amount of bind. Also I tried running my axial yeti 380 2.2’s/5.5 OD tires on there just to be stupid and it was way too much leverage at that joint under tension. It’s what ever I forget there broke most the time. Thanks for getting my dusty brain 🧠 spinning 😵‍💫 cheers!

[@brianmorrison2846]

I tried Proline dual stage and still the side wall is so thin it came off the Treal wheels.

[@CrawlerCanyon]

I can see that. The rubber is SO soft. It's a good bead shape, I just think some beadlocks are going to grab it better than others.

[@ShadeTree_RC]

hmm not bad at all may have to pick up a set of these for my gspeed rig i just got back together

Can you do a comparison of the junk tire with the real tire it is knocking off to see the difference in performance?

[@CrawlersCampRc]

With this tire only being 26$ for a set of 4 and seeing what it just did. I see there needs to be a comparison video. It's a steal of a deal

[@pedellbills130]

@@CrawlersCampRc I have them in my cart to purchase. Should I get a better foam insert?

[@CrawlersCampRc]

The inserts look soft. I personally run xtra large hair buns from Amazon in my tires and have had great results 💯🤜

[@CrawlerCanyon]

@@pedellbills130 if you haven't watched the state of the canyon (weekly update) for June 16, watch that one-- these are in it, sort-of against real KLR/Ms. I will say that the included foam is only good up to like maybe the low-5s for weight. It's very soft, and will fold over pretty badly on sidehill. I'm going to try a number of different inserts and see how it goes. I think a dual stage would likely be great. Be aware that some wheels are going to hold onto these better than others. The beads are a little thin and very soft.

[@StubbsRC]

Injora is taking hints. They are leading the China game

[@Rombo-86]

Are they injoras tyre? Because injora does that tyre. When you give a tyre the green threat what you mean with that? My injoras was sticky from the beginning but not now after dirt 😜

[@CrawlerCanyon]

Yes, these are the Injora S3 version. The Simple Green on a new tire is to get any mold release or other material off the tire, which can often help get the tire to mount and stay mounted. But 99 times out of a hundred, I pull 'em out of the bag and slap 'em on the wheels. So popping two beads on these isn't super surprising. As long as they're not tearing, we're good.

[@Rombo-86]

@@CrawlerCanyon I did only try these on dirt when I got them because of the threadpaddern. I washed them yesterday and tried them on the rocks and they where crazy as you say 😳 aha so the brand is “simple green” I found it 😊

I wish these weren't stamped 4.80! I've got a set that I'd happily use on a budget Class 2 rig but having the 4.8 on the sidewall ruins it :(

Dremel it! They're spot on 4.75" on the included foams, they'd be a little shorter on a double bun or anything 3D.
