The Schumacher Shard 2.2 4WD Front Turf Tires are purpose-built front tires for 1/10th scale 4WD buggies competing on high-bite turf and carpet surfaces. Developed by Schumacher Racing in Great Britain, the Shard takes the DNA of the very successful Fusion tire and refines it into a dedicated 4WD front tire that delivers ultimate steering precision with excellent balance.
Front tires on a 1/10 4WD buggy do the critical work of initiating turn-in and holding the racing line, and the Shard was created specifically for that job. Based on the proven Fusion platform, the new 4WD Shard has been engineered to give drivers steering exactly where they need it. Schumacher’s classic stagger tread pattern has been updated with a modernised geometry, optimizing the contact patch for the unique demands of front-axle duty on high-grip surfaces.
The stagger design is a Schumacher hallmark for carpet and turf racing: the tread’s stepped arrangement provides aggressive initial bite for sharp steering response, while the modernised geometry keeps the tire balanced and predictable through the middle and exit of the corner. The result is a front tire that bites hard where you need it most without making the car feel nervous or inconsistent.
Whether you’re racing on turf or carpet, the Schumacher Shard 2.2 4WD Front Turf Tires provide the front-end grip and consistency that competitive 1/10 4WD buggy racing demands. Pair them with Schumacher’s recommended U6653 hard foam inserts—the same inserts used in Schumacher’s pre-glued tires—for the intended fit and performance.
