I love the BT,s in m3.They hook up every where.m2 good also.But you cant beat the good old CF,s. Hard choice to make.

I have yet to see bowties perform as well as crime fighters, let alone better. I recently used a set of holeshots, and those impressed me.

Both hook up very good, the bowties don't have as much sidebite as the CF's so you won't traction roll like the CF's.

Bowties give the most forward bite, less side bite. Crimefighters are smoother overall. I ran bowties the first few races but switched to crimefighters last weekend. A lot of guys are liking the bowties more but you can't go wrong with either

why limit yourself between these two? GRP has 2 good sets Cubics and jollies

I have used the Jolly's. They work good everywhere...GRP isnt a off brand, they just dont have alot of exposure in the US. Oversea's they are a big name...

Jolly and cubic are my weapons of choice.

Some guys ran Jollys at the track today they look dialed.

I think the Cubics would be the ticket at the pit. Look similar to holeshots.

I want to try the Jollys, Cubics, and Atomics. But there stuff is pricey

You'll spend abut 6$ more on the GRP's than the Prolines. That is for premounted ones. I'm through gluing tires.

The GRPs won't fit standard truggy wheels, too large diameter. So buying premounted is the way to go.
I don't know about the buggy size tires though.
