Key Features
- Multi-surface 2HO tread pattern — The tread design is engineered to maintain excellent traction across all driving surfaces including dirt tracks, grass fields and indoor carpet, making these versatile tyres suitable for any RC buggy pilot regardless of terrain preference.
- Pre-glued construction — The tyres arrive already glued to the wheels, eliminating the need for separate mounting and gluing work, which saves time and ensures consistent tyre fitment from the moment you receive them.
- High-quality rubber compound — Manufactured from durable rubber material, these tyres are built to withstand extended driving sessions and repeated impacts without premature wear, delivering long-lasting performance and value for money.
- Aerodynamic dish wheel design — The dish profile enhances the visual appeal of your RC buggy whilst simultaneously providing increased structural strength to handle the rigours of aggressive driving and stunts.
- Tough nylon wheel construction — The wheels are manufactured from resilient nylon material, ensuring they can endure contact with obstacles, rough terrain and demanding driving conditions without cracking or delaminating.
- ARRMA styling in black — The black colour scheme with authentic ARRMA branding gives your RC buggy a head-turning appearance whilst maintaining a professional and race-ready aesthetic.
- 17mm hex connection — The larger 17mm hex size provides enhanced strength during extreme driving action and competitive racing, whilst simultaneously enabling quick and straightforward servicing whenever you need to perform maintenance.
- High-memory foam inserts — The specially formulated foam inserts are engineered to return to their original shape after each drive session, maintaining consistent performance and handling characteristics throughout the lifespan of the tyres.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA 2HO Tyre Set represents a carefully engineered component that bridges the gap between casual bashers and competitive RC racers. The 4.6 inch (117mm) overall diameter combined with the 1.7 inch (44mm) width creates a proportion that delivers excellent grip characteristics without sacrificing manoeuvrability. The wheel bead diameter of 3.3 inches (83mm) ensures optimal seating on 1/8 scale buggy hubs, whilst the 17mm hex connection provides the mechanical strength needed for aggressive driving at high speeds. The foam inserts are specifically designed to absorb impacts and vibrations whilst maintaining the tyre's shape and grip levels across varied terrain. Whether you are driving on the track at a local RC club or bashing through fields and parks, these tyres have been engineered to deliver predictable performance and reliable handling. The high-quality rubber compound resists degradation from UV exposure and repeated flexing, meaning your investment will continue performing well season after season. This is genuine ARRMA engineering, tested and proven to work seamlessly with Typhon 3s buggies and other compatible 1/8 scale RC vehicles.
