Key Features

• Chunky Mud Block Tread Design — The aggressive tread pattern is purpose-built for serious off-road use, providing exceptional grip and traction on muddy, sandy, and loose surfaces where standard tyres would struggle. This specialised tread geometry ensures your RC buggy maintains contact with challenging terrain.
• Patterned Flat 5-Spoke Black Rims — The stylish black wheels feature an attractive spoke pattern that enhances your vehicle's visual appeal while maintaining the strength and durability required for off-road bashing. These rims provide a clean, contemporary look that complements any colour scheme.
• Complete Four-Pack Wheel Set — This package includes four matched tyres mounted on black rims, allowing you to completely refresh all four corners of your 1/18 buggy with consistent performance and appearance across the entire vehicle.
• Unglued Tyre Construction — The tyres arrive unglued, giving you the flexibility to apply your preferred tyre adhesive and ensuring maximum bond strength and longevity. This approach maintains the highest build quality standards.
• 1/18 Scale Optimisation — At 70x28mm, these tyres are specifically engineered for 1/18 scale buggies, ensuring proper fitment, accurate ground clearance, and authentic scale appearance that complements your vehicle's proportions.
• Genuine RC Overhaul Quality — Manufactured by RC Overhaul, a trusted specialist in RC components, these tyres represent genuine quality engineering designed specifically for off-road performance and reliability.

Technical Performance

The RCO Mud Block Tyre with Black Rim Set represents a serious upgrade in off-road capability for your 1/18 Arrma Typhon Grom and compatible 1/18 scale buggies. The mud block tread pattern is engineered with deep, aggressive grooves that bite into loose and soft terrain, displacing mud and sand to maintain consistent traction where smooth tyres would lose grip. The 70x28mm dimensions provide optimal weight distribution and ground contact patch for 1/18 scale vehicles, balancing the aggressive off-road appearance with practical performance characteristics. The patterned flat 5-spoke black rims are constructed from durable material designed to withstand the impacts and stresses of off-road bashing, whilst the black finish resists staining and maintains aesthetic appeal through multiple sessions. Because the tyres arrive unglued, you maintain complete control over the adhesive application process, allowing you to achieve a professional bond that ensures the tyre won't slip or separate on the rim during aggressive cornering or high-speed manoeuvres. The engineering philosophy behind these tyres prioritises real-world off-road performance over on-road handling, making them an essential upgrade for anyone serious about tackling challenging natural terrain with their compact RC buggy. The complete four-pack ensures all wheels are identically matched, eliminating any handling inconsistencies that could arise from mixing different tyre compounds or tread patterns.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these tyres suitable for off-road use on an 1/18 scale RC buggy? — Yes, absolutely. The RCO Mud Block tyres are specifically engineered for serious off-road use, featuring an aggressive chunky tread pattern designed to grip muddy, sandy, and loose terrain. These tyres are far superior to stock smooth tyres for natural ground conditions and represent the ideal choice for anyone wanting to explore off-road trails with their Arrma Typhon Grom.
• Do these tyres come pre-mounted and ready to use? — The tyres arrive mounted on the black rims, but they are supplied unglued. This means you must apply tyre adhesive before use. This approach gives you control over the gluing process and allows you to achieve a professional bond. You'll need to allow the glue to cure fully before running the vehicle.
• What adhesive should I use to glue these tyres? — RC Model Shop recommends Core RC 522 Pro Tyre Glue, a professional-grade adhesive specifically formulated for RC tyre mounting. This glue provides a strong, reliable bond that prevents tyre slip during aggressive off-road driving. Apply the adhesive according to the manufacturer's instructions and allow proper curing time.
• Will these tyres fit my Arrma Typhon Grom? — Yes, these tyres are specifically designed for the Arrma Typhon Grom and are compatible with multiple Typhon Grom variants, including the 223S BLX 4x4 models in red, silver, and blue, as well as the Mega 380 brushed 4x4 variant. The 70x28mm dimensions are optimised for 1/18 scale vehicles.
• What is the scale and tyre size of this set? — This is a 1/18 scale wheel and tyre set with dimensions of 70x28mm, designed specifically for compact off-road buggies in this size category.
• How many tyres come in the package? — This is a four-pack, providing complete wheel and tyre sets for all four corners of your RC buggy, ensuring consistent performance and appearance across your vehicle.
• Can I use these tyres on-road? — Whilst these tyres can technically be used on smooth surfaces, they are purpose-built for off-road conditions. The aggressive mud block tread pattern will generate more rolling resistance on tarmac and may produce faster wear. For the best performance and longevity, reserve these tyres for natural terrain and off-road tracks.
