Overview

The Traxxas Wheels & Tyres assembled set (2.8") in RXT Green is an essential upgrade or replacement component for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand quality and performance. These pre-assembled and factory-glued wheels and tyres come ready to install on compatible Traxxas 4WD and 2WD electric RC vehicles, eliminating the need for time-consuming assembly, balancing, and gluing.

Built specifically for high-performance electric RC applications, the TRX6773G combines RXT alloy wheels with Talon Extreme tyres and integrated foam inserts, creating a complete rolling solution that enhances grip, handling, and overall vehicle dynamics.

The pre-glued construction means you can have your RC vehicle rolling again in minutes, making this an excellent choice for busy hobbyists who want to spend more time driving and less time in the workshop.

Key Features

• 2.8-inch Diameter Size — The 2.8" wheel and tyre package is the standard fitment for modern Traxxas electric stadium trucks, short-course trucks, and buggies, providing an optimal balance between ground clearance, acceleration, and top speed for both 2WD and 4WD platforms.
• RXT Green Alloy Wheels — Premium cast alloy wheels in distinctive green finish deliver lightweight construction and excellent durability, resisting impacts and wear from repeated bashings and racing while complementing the aesthetics of compatible Traxxas vehicles.
• Talon Extreme Tyres — High-grip rubber compound tyres are engineered for superior traction across various surfaces including asphalt, dirt, and grass, helping you maintain control and achieve faster lap times in competitive RC car UK settings or recreational driving.
• Foam Inserts Included — Integrated foam inserts work with the rubber tyres to provide shock absorption, improve ride quality, and enhance tyre shape stability during cornering and acceleration, critical for both on-road and off-road RC driving.
• Factory Assembled and Glued — All components arrive pre-assembled and professionally glued, saving you hours of workshop time and ensuring consistent, professional-quality wheel construction that matches factory specifications exactly.
• TSM Rated Compatibility — Full compatibility with Traxxas Stability Management (TSM) systems, allowing the vehicle's electronic stability control to function optimally for improved traction control and cornering performance.
• 4WD Front/Rear and 2WD Front Compatible — Designed to fit both 4WD electric models (front and rear axles) and 2WD electric platforms (front axles only), making this a versatile solution for multiple Traxxas vehicles in your collection.
• Rustler Ultimate VXL Compatible — Specifically engineered as a perfect fit for Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 1/10 brushless models in both blue and green colour options, ensuring seamless integration and optimal performance.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas TRX6773G wheel and tyre set represents precision engineering in miniature form. The 2.8-inch diameter specification is the industry-standard for 1/10 scale electric RC vehicles, and the RXT wheels are manufactured from high-quality cast aluminium alloy that balances strength with minimal unsprung weight—critical factors in RC vehicle performance. The green finish is applied through professional coating processes to resist fading and chipping from typical bashings and racing activity. The Talon Extreme tyres feature a specially formulated rubber compound designed for grip across multiple surface types; the tread pattern is optimised for drainage and traction, whether you're driving on circuit tracks or loose outdoor terrain. The foam inserts are engineered to precise densities that complement the tyre compliance, absorbing impacts from kerbs and jumps whilst maintaining shape during sustained cornering. The factory gluing process ensures the tyres remain permanently bonded to the wheel rims without separation, which can occur with amateur gluing techniques. The set is compatible with both brushless and brushed 4WD electric platforms and 2WD electric front-axle applications, and the TSM rating confirms compatibility with Traxxas's advanced electronic traction control systems, which modulate motor speed and braking to optimise grip and stability during aggressive driving.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels compatible with my Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4? — Yes, the TRX6773G is specifically engineered for Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 1/10 brushless models in both blue and green variants. The 2.8-inch diameter and bolt pattern match perfectly. Installation is straightforward—simply remove your existing wheels and fit these new ones using your vehicle's existing wheel nuts.
• Will these wheels fit my 2WD Traxxas vehicle? — These wheels are compatible with 2WD electric Traxxas models on the front axle. The 2.8-inch size and TSM rating make them suitable for 2WD platforms, though they are also available as front/rear fitment for 4WD electric vehicles, giving you flexibility across your RC vehicle collection.
• Do I need to glue the tyres to the wheels myself? — No, the tyres are pre-glued by Traxxas at the factory, so they arrive ready to install. This saves considerable time compared to purchasing unglued wheel and tyre sets, and the professional gluing ensures durability and reliability on the track or bash course.
• What is the difference between these RXT wheels and other Traxxas wheel options? — The RXT wheels featured in this set are cast alloy wheels available in various colours including green. Traxxas produces several wheel styles, but the RXT range offers an excellent balance of weight, strength, and visual appeal. The choice between different wheels often comes down to personal preference and the specific performance characteristics you're seeking—these RXT wheels are proven performers on both racing and bashing setups.
• Can I use these wheels on other RC brands? — These wheels are specifically designed for Traxxas vehicles with compatible bolt patterns and are optimised for Traxxas drivetrain specifications. Using them on non-Traxxas vehicles is not recommended, as fitment and performance may be compromised. Always verify compatibility before purchasing wheels for non-Traxxas RC cars.
• Are these tyres suitable for racing or just bashing? — The Talon Extreme tyres are versatile and work well for both competitive racing and casual bashing. The grip level and tread design make them competitive on circuit tracks whilst remaining durable enough for rough, outdoor terrain. Your driving style and track conditions will influence how quickly the tyres wear, but they are engineered for performance in both contexts.
• What battery do I need to use with these wheels? — The wheels themselves are passive components that work with any battery compatible with your Traxxas vehicle. Traxxas brushless models typically use 2S or 3S LiPo batteries (sold separately), and the choice of battery affects your vehicle's performance. Consult your vehicle's manual or our team at RC Model Shop for battery recommendations specific to your model.
• Is this suitable for beginners? — These wheels are suitable for all experience levels, from beginners to advanced racers. They arrive fully assembled and glued, requiring no technical knowledge to install. If you're new to RC and need guidance on fitment or maintenance, our team at RC Model Shop is happy to help you get rolling quickly and confidently.
