Overview
The Traxxas Anaconda Wheels & Tyres assembled and pre-glued set TRX5576R represents the perfect solution for RC enthusiasts across the UK looking to upgrade their 1/10 scale truggy or stadium truck with premium all-terrain performance. These aren't just any wheels and tyres – they arrive fully assembled, mounted and pre-glued with foam inserts, ready for immediate bolt-on installation with absolutely no hassle or additional preparation required. Whether you're a competitive racer, a weekend basher, or a serious RC hobbyist exploring the thrills of off-road RC driving, this Traxxas wheel and tyre combination delivers the performance and reliability that has made Traxxas a trusted name in the RC car UK community for decades.
This complete wheel and tyre package features the distinctive futuristic All-Star chrome wheels paired with Anaconda performance tyres, engineered specifically for serious drivers who demand exceptional grip, durability and the ultimate high-speed on-road experience. The set includes one left and one right assembly, making it the perfect complement to your existing RC setup. The combination of specialised tyre compound, intelligent directional tread design, and moulded foam inserts creates a balanced, forgiving platform that works brilliantly whether you're attacking tight technical sections or powering through open terrain.
What sets this particular configuration apart is the nitro rear and electric front designation – this specific fitment makes it compatible with models that utilise different power systems front and rear, providing flexibility for builders and racers who run mixed drivetrains. The 2.8-inch wheel diameter and 12mm hex fitting ensures broad compatibility across the Traxxas 1/10 scale range, and the ready-to-run nature of these pre-assembled, pre-glued units means you can transition from unboxing to bashing in minutes, not hours.
Key Features

Technical Performance
These Traxxas Anaconda wheels and tyres are engineered to deliver serious performance across varied terrain and conditions. The 2.8-inch diameter provides the ideal balance between ground clearance and rotational mass for 1/10 scale truggy and stadium truck platforms. The specially formulated Anaconda tyre compound has been developed through extensive testing to provide the sticky grip needed for precise control whilst maintaining durability through aggressive driving sessions. The directional chevron-style tread pattern (in other variants of this wheel range) works with the soft compound to dig into dirt for maximum traction when accelerating and braking, whilst the side-grip characteristics allow for controlled power-sliding on paved surfaces – crucial for drivers who want versatility across different track types. The moulded foam inserts provide progressive stiffness, absorbing impacts whilst maintaining the structural integrity of the tyre sidewall under cornering loads. The pre-glued construction uses proven bonding techniques to ensure the tyre remains securely mounted to the wheel rim through countless hard landings, jumps and aggressive manoeuvres. The All-Star wheel construction in chrome delivers a lightweight yet rigid platform that resists cracking and deformation even under the stresses of high-performance RC driving. Built to the exacting standards Traxxas customers expect, these wheels represent genuine performance enhancement rather than superficial cosmetic upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels ready to fit straight out of the box? — Yes, absolutely. These wheels arrive fully assembled, mounted and pre-glued with foam inserts. There is no additional gluing, mounting or preparation required – simply bolt them onto your vehicle using the 12mm hex and you're ready to drive. This ready-to-run convenience is one of the primary advantages over purchasing wheels and tyres separately.
- What vehicles are these wheels compatible with? — The 12mm hex fitting, 2.8-inch diameter and 1/10 scale make these wheels compatible with the Traxxas truggy and stadium truck range. The nitro rear and electric front designation means they are specifically fitted for vehicles that use different power systems at the front and rear, so check your vehicle specifications to ensure proper fitment.
- How do Anaconda tyres compare to other Traxxas tyre options? — Anaconda tyres are specifically engineered as performance street compounds with a focus on on-road traction, wear resistance and high-speed stability. They feature a specially formulated compound that provides sticky grip without excessive wear. Other Traxxas tyre ranges like Maxx may be optimised for different conditions or performance characteristics, so your choice depends on whether you're primarily bashing on-road, off-road or mixed terrain.
- Can I use these on my electric or nitro vehicle? — This particular set is configured as nitro rear and electric front, meaning the rear assembly is optimised for nitro engines whilst the front is matched for electric motor systems. Mixing nitro and electric powertrains across a vehicle is possible and this configuration supports that setup.
- How long will these tyres last before I need replacement? — The Anaconda compound is engineered for exceptional wear resistance, meaning you'll enjoy extended running time before tyre degradation becomes noticeable. Actual longevity depends heavily on driving style, terrain type and intensity. Aggressive driving on abrasive surfaces will naturally wear tyres faster than casual bashing, but the robust formulation is designed to resist the hardest use.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. The pre-assembled, pre-glued nature of these wheels makes them ideal for beginners who may not have experience mounting and gluing tyres. Simply unbox and fit to your vehicle – no technical knowledge required. The balanced feel provided by the tyre and foam insert combination also makes them forgiving for drivers still developing their skills.
- What is the wheel diameter and will they fit my RC vehicle? — These are 2.8-inch diameter wheels with 12mm hex fitting, designed for 1/10 scale vehicles in the truggy and stadium truck classes. Check your vehicle's wheel fitment specifications to confirm compatibility before ordering.
