Just like their full-size counterparts, Pro-Line's BFG Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tyres are proudly made in the USA, combining decades of off-road tyre engineering with Pro-Line's expertise in scale performance. These are not generic tyres—they are authentic, purpose-built tools designed specifically for rock crawlers who demand maximum traction, realistic scale appearance, and reliable performance on loose, muddy and rocky surfaces. Each pair comes ready to fit Pro-Line's wide array of 1.9" wheels, making integration into your existing setup straightforward and hassle-free.
Key Features
- Fully Licensed BFGoodrich Design — These tyres represent an official collaboration between Pro-Line and BFGoodrich, the leading full-size off-road tyre manufacturer, ensuring that every detail of the iconic Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 design is authentically recreated at 1/10 scale. This is not an approximation; it is the genuine article scaled down for RC enthusiasts, bringing real-world proven tyre engineering to your crawler.
- 3rd Generation Mud Traction Technology — Built on BFGoodrich's proven Key feature of Mud traction 3rd Generation (KM3), these tyres are engineered with aggressive tread lugs specifically designed to bite into loose, muddy and slippery surfaces. This advanced technology translates to superior grip when climbing over rocks, negotiating muddy terrain and tackling the toughest obstacles in rock crawling courses.
- Deep, Self-Cleaning Independent Tread Blocks — The tyre features deep tread blocks that are independently designed to maximise contact patch and grip while automatically shedding mud and debris as you drive. This self-cleaning design means your tyres maintain consistent traction throughout your crawling session without clogging up with mud, a critical advantage when tackling challenging terrain.
- Aggressive Tread Lugs for Maximum Bite — Every lug on the tread pattern is aggressively designed to bite into loose and muddy surfaces, providing the mechanical grip necessary to climb over slippery rocks and navigate unpredictable terrain. The lug geometry is based on BFGoodrich's proven Krawler T/A KX symmetric tread design, adapted for superior performance in scale crawling applications.
- Linear Transverse Flex Zones — The tyre incorporates linear transverse flex zones that provide maximum grip when traversing obstacles, allowing the tyre to conform to uneven surfaces and maintain contact with the terrain even when navigating extreme rock faces and challenging crawling obstacles. This flexibility is essential for getting over the toughest obstacles consistently.
- Pro-Line's Legendary G8 Compound Material — As always, these KM3 tyres are manufactured in Pro-Line's legendary G8 compound, a premium tyre material specifically formulated to deliver exceptional grip, durability and consistent performance across all crawling conditions. The G8 material is harder wearing than standard compounds, ensuring your tyres maintain performance through extended use.
- Perfect Class 1 Scale Sizing — At 4.19" tall by 1.42" wide, these tyres achieve the ideal Class 1 proportions for ultra-realistic scale appearance on your 1/10 crawler. The sizing ensures your truck looks as authentic as it performs, with tyre proportions that match full-size crawler builds perfectly.
- Wide Wheel Compatibility — These 1.9" tyres fit Pro-Line's wide array of 1.9" wheels, giving you excellent flexibility in choosing the exact rim style and offset that suits your build aesthetic while maintaining guaranteed fitment and performance.
- Made in the USA — Just like the full-size BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tyres, Pro-Line's scale version is proudly manufactured in the USA, combining American engineering excellence with premium materials and quality control standards.
Technical Performance
The Pro-Line Class 1 BFG Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 1.9" tyres represent a significant engineering achievement in bringing authentic full-size tyre technology to RC scale crawling. At 4.19" in overall diameter and 1.42" in width, these tyres achieve the correct Class 1 proportions that discerning crawlers demand. The construction utilises Pro-Line's legendary G8 compound throughout, a premium material specifically engineered for superior grip and longevity in demanding off-road conditions. The tyre's architecture features deep, independently designed tread blocks that serve multiple purposes: they provide the aggressive surface texture needed to bite into loose soil and mud, whilst simultaneously allowing self-cleaning action that prevents mud buildup that would otherwise compromise traction. The linear transverse flex zones integrated throughout the sidewall and tread design allow the tyre to deform slightly when climbing obstacles, maintaining maximum contact patch pressure against rocks and uneven terrain. This is critical for rock crawling success, where the ability to conform to terrain geometry whilst maintaining forward momentum can mean the difference between clearing an obstacle or becoming stuck. The BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 design foundation, adapted from the Krawler T/A KX symmetric tread geometry, has been proven in full-size off-road applications and delivers reliable, repeatable performance. For UK-based RC crawler enthusiasts seeking premium rock crawling tyres with authentic styling and engineered performance, these tyres deliver on all fronts. Fitment is universal across Pro-Line's 1.9" wheel range, making these tyres an excellent choice for upgrading existing crawlers or building new ones.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these Class 1 BFG KM3 tyres suitable for serious rock crawling competition? — Absolutely. These tyres are engineered specifically for rock crawling performance using BFGoodrich's proven 3rd generation mud traction technology. The aggressive tread pattern, self-cleaning independent blocks, and flex zones are all designed for demanding terrain navigation. Whether you are tackling indoor rock crawling courses or outdoor natural terrain, these tyres deliver the traction and consistency serious crawlers expect.
- What is the difference between these Class 1 BFG KM3 tyres and other Pro-Line 1.9" options? — These Class 1 BFG KM3 tyres are specifically licensed from BFGoodrich and feature the authentic Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tread design with 3rd generation mud traction technology and aggressive tread lugs. Other Pro-Line options, such as the Hyrax range, feature different tread patterns optimised for different terrain types. The KM3 is specifically engineered for muddy, slippery and loose terrain performance, making it the choice for wet weather crawling and mud-heavy courses.
- Will these tyres fit my existing 1.9" wheels? — Yes, these tyres are designed to fit Pro-Line's wide array of 1.9" wheels, including both beadlock and standard designs. The 1.9" bead diameter is universal across Pro-Line's wheel range, ensuring straightforward fitment to your existing setup.
- How do the self-cleaning tread blocks help with performance? — The independently designed deep tread blocks are engineered to automatically shed mud and debris as you drive, preventing mud buildup that would otherwise clog the tread pattern and reduce grip. In wet, muddy terrain typical of UK crawling courses, this self-cleaning action is critical for maintaining consistent traction throughout extended driving sessions.
- Are these the official licensed BFGoodrich design? — Yes, these are fully licensed Class 1 recreations of the BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM3 tyre. Pro-Line had early access to the full-size tyre design and painstakingly recreated every detail for 1/10 scale, ensuring authenticity in appearance and performance characteristics based on real off-road tyre engineering.
- What terrain are these tyres best suited for? — These tyres excel in loose, muddy and slippery terrain where aggressive tread lugs can bite into the surface. The 3rd generation mud traction technology makes them ideal for wet conditions, muddy rock crawling courses, and terrain where grip is at a premium. They are equally effective on rocky terrain where the flex zones allow the tyre to conform to uneven surfaces.
