The tires I currently have on my Baja are the Rovan all-terrain tires. I bought them because they last longer than the dirt buster tires, but I recently started racing on dirt and they aren't very grippy. Does anyone know of some really grippy tires for a Baja?

Have you tried them on dirt? I can't find any videos of anyone using them on dirt.

What type of dirt are you racing on?
For hard compact soil or grass I personally like mini pins or the KM Pioneer tyres (trencher copies), also known as Rovan Excavator tyres.
If its a bit muddy and loose then I like the Big Diggers, look like a motocross tyre.
If its sand or snow then I throw on the paddles
On my truck I only run the 30degrees north signature tyres, I find them predictable on most surfaces with the right amount of traction for me.

Are proline bowties any good? Becuase I found a used pare of them on facebook marketplace and they seem to be in good condition.

They are meant be good, but its all going to be down to what surface you run on.

Soooooo what about the other guy running mcd ?
there are the mad max cross bond bow tyres as well, they are a copy of the prolines mate,
i have a set and they are a very soft compound,
mine havnt had any real use so i cant give a proper opinion of how good they are, but there an option, and cheap for a full set
as above though, depends what type of dirt etc

He wasn’t running so well
A couple of my buddies also swear by the madmax mini pins.

MadMax Big Digger are pretty good tires. I compared them with Hostile MX. what is striking Mad Max is a better tire for half the price of a Hostile MX and at the same time it has better durability.
Buy uber viper spikes and never look back
