These ready-to-install assemblies eliminate the need for separate mounting and gluing, saving you time and ensuring professional results right out of the box. Whether you're running a 2WD Slash or the more modern Slash 4X4, these versatile wheels deliver exceptional multi-surface performance and an authentic appearance that captures the look of real off-road vehicles.

For RC enthusiasts across the UK looking to upgrade their short-course truck setup, these factory-assembled wheels and tyres offer outstanding value and convenience. The Split Spoke design combined with genuine BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 rubber makes these a popular choice among weekend bashers and serious competitors alike. Pre-assembled and pre-glued wheels take the guesswork out of tyre fitment and eliminate the risk of mounting errors, allowing you to focus on what matters most—driving and enjoying your RC experience.

Traxxas has engineered these wheels with dual-profile construction featuring a 2.2-inch outer diameter and 3.0-inch inner diameter, offering excellent compatibility with both factory Traxxas and quality aftermarket short-course tyres. The inclusion of foam inserts ensures proper tyre support during aggressive cornering and jumping, whilst the chrome and red colour scheme adds visual appeal whether you're running on dirt, gravel, or mixed terrain.

Key Features

• SCT Split-Spoke Design — The distinctive split-spoke wheel architecture provides authentic short-course truck styling with a detailed, realistic appearance that stands out on the track or bashfield.

• Foam Inserts Included — Pre-installed foam inserts provide critical tyre support during hard cornering, jumps and high-speed manoeuvres, helping to maintain consistent grip and reduce tyre roll-over.
• 12mm Hex Fittings — Standard 12mm hexagonal drive fittings ensure full compatibility with Traxxas Slash truck models and other RC vehicles using industry-standard wheel hubs.

Technical Performance

Traxxas engineered these wheels and tyres using premium materials and proven manufacturing techniques developed across decades of RC vehicle production. The SCT Split-Spoke wheel design combines structural strength with lightweight construction, while the satin chrome finish resists scratching and corrosion during outdoor bashfield and track use. The colour-moulded red beadlock detail is integrated directly into the wheel moulding, ensuring the aesthetic detail remains vibrant even after repeated use and cleaning. The BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres are moulded in a rubber compound specifically optimized for multi-surface traction and extended tread life, balancing grip with durability for both casual drivers and competitive racers. The foam inserts, whilst simple in appearance, play a critical role in maintaining tyre shape under cornering loads and during high-speed jumps, preventing the tyre from rolling excessively on the wheel and losing contact patch. The 12mm hex fitting is machined to tight tolerances ensuring reliable wheel retention and eliminating any play between the wheel and hub. These wheels are manufactured to exacting standards and are compatible with Traxxas Stability Management systems, which means the tyre-to-wheel glue bond has been verified to withstand the extreme driving forces generated by brushless motor systems running at full throttle with aggressive stability control intervention. The Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue used in assembly was originally developed for the 100+ mph XO-1 hypercar platform, guaranteeing a permanent bond even during sustained high-performance driving.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels suitable for both 2WD and 4WD Slash models? — Yes, these wheels are specifically designed with the offset matching Slash 2WD rear wheels. They can be used as rear wheels on the Slash 2WD, or as both front and rear wheels on the Slash 4X4 and Slash 4X4 Ultimate models. The compatible specifications (4WD F/R, 2WD Rear) printed on the packaging confirm this dual compatibility.
• Do I need to mount and glue these wheels myself? — No. These wheels arrive completely assembled and bonded with Traxxas-grade tyre adhesive. Simply install them onto your truck using the 12mm hex fittings and you are ready to drive. This factory assembly eliminates waiting time and the possibility of mounting errors.
• What tyres come with these wheels? — These wheels are fitted with genuine, officially licensed BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres. The BFGoodrich brand is recognised worldwide for off-road tyre engineering, and the KM2 pattern is particularly well-suited for multi-terrain use including dirt, gravel, sand and mixed surfaces.
• Can I replace the tyres if they wear out? — Yes. The wheels are fully compatible with both Traxxas factory short-course tyres and quality aftermarket 2.2/3.0 profile rubber. You can have the new tyres professionally glued, or purchase another set of factory-mounted wheels for quick replacement during events.
• What is the wheel offset and why does it matter? — These wheels feature the same offset as Slash 2WD rear wheels. The offset refers to the position of the wheel centre relative to the mounting surface. Different offsets are required front and rear on 2WD trucks because the suspension widths differ by a few millimetres, and using correct offsets ensures your truck maintains proper track width and handling balance.
• Are these wheels waterproof? — The wheels themselves are moulded plastic and metal components that are naturally water-resistant. The tyres and inserts are also water-resistant and suitable for wet conditions. However, they are not sealed units—water can enter the wheel interior. After wet running, allow the wheels to dry and inspect the glue bond, particularly if you are running at high speeds with brushless power.
• What is the difference between standard and S1 rubber compounds? — Traxxas offers short-course tyres in both standard and softer S1 compounds. These wheels come with standard compound rubber, which balances grip with tread life for general all-surface running. S1 compound offers maximum traction but wears faster, and is typically reserved for competition drivers or dedicated off-road enthusiasts. The standard compound delivered here is ideal for weekend bashers and recreational drivers.
• Will these wheels fit my RC truck if it is not a Traxxas Slash? — These wheels feature 12mm hex fittings, which are a common industry standard. However, the specific wheel offset and diameter are designed for Traxxas Slash 2WD and 4X4 models. Before installing on other vehicles, confirm that the wheel offset, hex size and diameter match your truck's requirements.
• What makes these wheels TSM-rated? — TSM-rated wheels have been assembled using Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue and are approved for use with Traxxas Stability Management equipped vehicles. These wheels are compatible with TSM systems, allowing you to drive at full throttle and perform aggressive manoeuvres without risk of the tyres separating from the wheels.
