Overview
The PRO 1/10 BFG Krawler T/A KX Predator Front/Rear 1.9 inch Crawler Tyres represent the pinnacle of licensed rock crawling tyre technology for serious RC enthusiasts. Pro-Line has partnered with BFGoodrich, the world's leading off-road tyre manufacturer, to bring authentically scaled versions of the legendary Krawler T/A KX rock crawling tyres to your 1/10 scale RC crawler. This collaboration continues Pro-Line's successful heritage of creating fully licensed BFGoodrich products, following the acclaimed Baja T/A KR2 race tyres and the extremely popular All-Terrain KO2. Whether you're tackling challenging terrain at your local RC track, competing in rock crawling competitions, or exploring rugged landscapes with your RC car UK setup, these tyres deliver the extreme traction and performance you need to conquer any obstacle.
The BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX (where KX stands for Key feature: eXtreme traction) is specifically engineered for the demanding discipline of rock crawling. Developed through direct collaboration between BFGoodrich and full-size rock crawling enthusiasts, this purpose-built tyre has proven itself in actual competition environments. Pro-Line's meticulous recreation captures every detail of the real tyre, translating genuine rock crawling DNA into a 1/10 scale package that delivers authentic performance characteristics. The Red Label edition features Pro-Line's renowned Super Soft Predator compound, a laboratory-certified rubber formulation that has been specifically engineered for high-performance rock crawling applications.
Standing 4.75 inches tall and 1.75 inches wide, these tyres strike the perfect balance between authentic scale appearance and genuine performance capability. They are the ideal choice for anyone serious about maximising their RC crawler's traction and control on varied terrain. The included soft foam inserts work in harmony with the tyre compound to provide maximum conformity to surfaces, ensuring you get the grip advantage you need whether you're climbing rocks, navigating mud, or traversing technical terrain.

Technical Performance
The PRO 1/10 BFG Krawler T/A KX Predator tyres represent years of engineering refinement in rock crawling tyre technology. The tyre construction features an extra-deep tread design with aggressive independent blocks that provide multiple biting edges for optimal traction on rocky, loose, and technical terrain. The solid sidewall lugs extend the climbing capability of your RC crawler, allowing the tyres to maintain grip on steep inclines and challenging obstacles. The Super Soft Predator compound used in these Red Label tyres has been laboratory certified and specifically formulated for high-performance rock crawling applications, ensuring maximum grip on low-grip surfaces and wet terrain where conventional tyres would fail. The material composition is engineered to remain supple and conformable even in cooler UK weather conditions, maintaining performance throughout the autumn and winter crawling seasons. At 4.75 inches tall and 1.75 inches wide, the tyre proportions are perfectly balanced for 1/10 scale crawlers, providing the correct contact patch size for realistic off-road physics whilst delivering genuine traction performance. The soft white foam inserts work in concert with the rubber compound to enable the tyre to deform and conform to surface irregularities, dramatically improving grip on rocky terrain where conventional RC tyres would bounce or slide. These tyres are supplied as a complete pair, ready to mount on any 1.9-inch 1/10 RC crawler wheel, making them a straightforward upgrade path for owners of compatible vehicles looking to enhance their crawling capability.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these rock crawling tyres suitable for beginner RC enthusiasts? — Yes, these tyres are excellent for all skill levels. Beginners will appreciate the enhanced traction that makes it easier to navigate obstacles and build confidence, whilst experienced crawlers will benefit from the advanced performance characteristics and extreme grip that the Super Soft Predator compound provides on challenging terrain.
- What makes the BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX different from other 1/10 rock crawling tyres? — These are fully licensed recreations of the authentic BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX tyres used on real full-size rock crawling rigs. The tyre pattern, sidewall lugs, and tread design are genuine rock crawling engineering, not generic crawler patterns. The Super Soft Predator compound is specifically formulated for high-performance crawling with maximum grip on low-traction and wet surfaces, making them distinctly superior to standard RC tyres on technical terrain.
- Are these tyres suitable for UK rock crawling conditions? — Absolutely. The Super Soft Predator compound has been optimised for cooler temperature performance, making these tyres ideal for UK weather conditions throughout the year. The aggressive tread design and deep blocks provide excellent grip on wet rocks, mud, and technical terrain common in British rock crawling locations.
- What type of wheels do I need to mount these tyres? — These are 1.9-inch tyres compatible with standard 1/10 scale rock crawler wheels. The tyre is compatible with vehicles like the Axial SCX10 Pro Scaler and other 1/10 4WD rock crawlers that accept 1.9-inch tyres. Check your vehicle's wheel compatibility to ensure proper fit.
- Can I use these tyres in warm weather conditions? — Whilst the Super Soft Predator compound has been optimised for cooler temperatures, these tyres will function in warmer conditions. However, if you primarily crawl in consistently warm environments, Pro-Line also offers the G8 compound version of the Krawler T/A KX tyres, which is specifically designed for general rock crawling and warmer temperature performance.
- Do these tyres come with foam inserts? — Yes, each pair of BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX Predator tyres includes two soft white foam inserts. These inserts are essential for optimal performance as they allow the tyre to conform to surface irregularities and maximise contact patch, dramatically improving grip on rocks and technical terrain.
- How long do these crawler tyres typically last? — The Predator compound has been engineered for ultra-long-lasting rock crawling performance. Actual tyre lifespan depends on your crawling intensity and terrain, but these tyres are built to deliver consistent grip through extended use on rocks, roots, and technical obstacles typical of serious rock crawling sessions.
