It looks like the old diffing out to one side thing. I can unglue any of the Duratrax belted tires in a heartbeat. That's also why I put 1mil in the front & rear. It really kills all that diffing out.Where you doing that thong where you floor it while turning so 8t rocks around in a circle?
Did you vent the tires?Im just not having any luck on my EXB tires. Last week was the left rear. This week is the right rear. I reglued all the tires also.

They come pre-vented like the O8S.Did you vent the tires?
The K8S EXB too? Those look like Copperheads, not Backflips.They come pre-vented like the O8S.
Yep, the Copperheads on the EXB are pre-vented too. They also have larger tread & are in scale with the 6s tire.The K8S EXB too? Those look like Copperheads, not Backflips.
Good to know. TBH when I first posted I didn’t notice it was the K8EXB. I see so many people on here talking about blown tires.Yep, the Copperheads on the EXB are pre-vented too. They also have larger tread & are in scale with the 6s tire.
Wow. Mine have been OK after 3 runs with 35/47 gearing.Im just not having any luck on my EXB tires. Last week was the left rear. This week is the right rear. I reglued all the tires also.

Yes its the new copperheads. The edges are chipped because of the glue.Oh man that really sucks, I hope you can get this sorted out, the edges look chipped up too? Can you please confirm are these the new heavy duty copperheads?
Oh OK, hope you can figure out what's doing it.Yes its the new copperheads. The edges are chipped because of the glue.
Its just a crappy quality control from Arrma. Barely had any glue on those tires. There were rushing to get this kits out the door to sell. Instead of making sure everything is 100% good.Oh OK, hope you can figure out what's doing it.
OK that's sad to hearIts just a crappy quality control from Arrma. Barely had any glue on those tires. There were rushing to get this kits out the door to sell. Instead of making sure everything is 100% good.
I'm right there with you. You have any idea how many xmaxx I have bought just in fixing my k6. My 3s have been great. 6s isn't even really an arrma anymore and the parts that break all the time are the left over arrma parts that are still on it. The k8 EXB left a sour taste in my mouth with the way they are advertising it and seems the ones that are holding up don't have much arrma left to them as well. I know you have been around the hobby a while. I am sure you understand when I say I blame horizon hobby.I'm losing faith in Arrma real fast.
Im loosing faith also on this brand. Ive spend to so much on the last 3 months. Ive been okay with the issues on the 3s and 6s lines. It did got expensive tripling the price of the car with all the uprades. I don't think I will be doing it with the 8S. If I break an a arms its my fault, but tires exploding on less than 4 packs run through this truck is unacceptable. HH is been slow also on taking care of the issue. Mayeb they are getting bombarded with all the issues they been having lately. This will probably be my last arrma kit I'll be buying. Im better off building from scratch or just try a different brand.I'm right there with you. You have any idea how many xmaxx I have bought just in fixing my k6.

Might give the corally bashers a try. This newest lineup is looking very nice. Well not the looks of them but the platform itself.
The xmaxx has the same problemIm just not having any luck on my EXB tires. Last week was the left rear. This week is the right rear. I reglued all the tires also.
