Key Features

• On-Road Tread Pattern — Specifically designed for tarmac and concrete surfaces, these tyres feature a smooth, gripped tread pattern that provides superior contact with hard driving surfaces compared to block tread alternatives, resulting in faster lap times, better cornering grip and improved stability during high-speed runs on sealed roads.
• High Sidewall and Large Profile Tyre Design — The generous sidewall height and larger overall tyre profile absorb road imperfections and provide cushioning on harder surfaces, which translates to better ride quality, improved traction and a more compliant feel when driving on tarmac or concrete, whilst also contributing to a more realistic appearance that matches modern RC car proportions.
• Cool White Multi-Spoke Wheel Design — The included white wheels feature an attractive multi-spoke design that enhances the visual appeal of your RC Mojave, maintaining the short course truck aesthetic whilst looking purposeful and modern; the white colour coordinates with many Mojave colour schemes and stands out on the track or road.
• Retains Short Course Aesthetic — Unlike some on-road tyre conversions that dramatically change the appearance of your vehicle, these RC Overhaul tyres maintain the low-profile, aggressive short course look of the Mojave platform, allowing you to switch between driving disciplines without the need for a completely different visual identity.
• Pack of Four Tyres and Wheels — This complete set includes four ready-to-glue tyre and wheel assemblies, providing a full set for your 1/18 Mojave with no individual wheel purchases required, ensuring all four tyres match perfectly and are balanced for consistent performance.
• Compatible with Multiple Mojave Variants — The G-RCO-AR035W is designed to fit the Arrma 1/16 Mojave GROM 223S BLX range and the Arrma Mojave GROM MEGA 380, ensuring broad compatibility across the Mojave family of vehicles regardless of which variant you own or plan to purchase.

Technical Performance

The RCO On-Road Tyre represents a significant step forward in driving capabilities for 1/18 scale RC car enthusiasts. The on-road specific tread pattern has been engineered through extensive real-world testing to deliver optimal grip on sealed surfaces whilst maintaining predictable handling characteristics across a range of driving styles and surface conditions. The high sidewall design, a critical engineering decision, allows the tyre to flex and conform to road surfaces, which is essential for maintaining traction whilst also providing bump absorption that would otherwise be transmitted directly to the chassis. The large profile tyre geometry increases the overall diameter and width of the contact patch, distributing the vehicle's weight over a larger area and reducing ground pressure, which dramatically improves grip on tarmac compared to the standard block tread tyres supplied with the base Mojave. The white multi-spoke wheels are manufactured to the same standards as premium RC components, ensuring they are strong enough to withstand the rigours of repeated on-road use whilst remaining lightweight enough not to negatively impact acceleration or handling response. Build quality throughout the assembly is consistent with RC Overhaul's reputation for delivering value-for-money components that perform reliably through multiple driving sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these tyres suitable for 1/18 scale on-road RC driving in the UK? — Yes, absolutely. The RC Overhaul On-Road Tyre has been specifically engineered for 1/18 scale platforms and features a dedicated on-road tread pattern optimised for tarmac and concrete surfaces typical of UK racetracks, car parks and roads. These tyres will dramatically improve your on-road performance compared to standard block tread alternatives.
• Which Mojave models are these tyres compatible with? — According to the manufacturer specifications, the G-RCO-AR035W is compatible with the Arrma 1/16 Mojave GROM 223S BLX 4x4 DT models (all colour variants including white, teal and black) and the Arrma Mojave GROM MEGA 380 Brushed 4x4. Always verify fitment with your specific vehicle before purchase if you're uncertain about compatibility.
• Do the tyres come glued to the wheels? — No, these tyres are supplied unglued and will require bonding to the wheels using proper RC tyre glue before use. This approach is standard in the RC hobby and allows you to choose your preferred adhesive brand and ensure the bond is strong and consistent. We recommend RC Model Shop's Core RC 522 Pro Tyre Glue for reliable results.
• What are the performance advantages of on-road tyres compared to block tread? — On-road tyres feature a smooth tread pattern specifically designed for hard, sealed surfaces, providing significantly better grip on tarmac and concrete. The large profile and high sidewall design absorbs road imperfections and improves cornering stability, whilst the increased contact patch means better weight distribution and higher overall traction. You'll notice faster acceleration, improved cornering grip and higher top speeds on sealed surfaces.
• Can I use these tyres off-road? — These tyres are optimised for on-road use and will wear quickly if used on dirt or grass surfaces. For maximum tyre lifespan and performance, keep them for tarmac and concrete driving. If you want to bash off-road, you'll want to retain or purchase a set of block tread tyres.
• How long do these tyres last? — Tyre lifespan depends entirely on driving frequency, style and road surface conditions. With moderate use on smooth tarmac, you can expect several hours of driving time before significant wear. Driving on rough tarmac or concrete will accelerate wear compared to smooth racetracks. Proper wheel balancing and correct driving technique will extend tyre life.
• Are these tyres and wheels easy to fit to my Mojave? — Installation is straightforward if you have basic RC car maintenance skills. You'll need to glue the unglued tyres to the white wheels using RC tyre glue, then fit the wheel and tyre assemblies to your Mojave in place of the original wheels using the standard fitting method for your specific Mojave variant. Most RC enthusiasts find this task takes just a few minutes per wheel.
