Ready-to-run RC car enthusiasts and those investing in their hobby know that using genuine manufacturer parts protects their investment and maximises performance. These Traxxas wheels feature the iconic satin chrome beadlock design which combines striking aesthetics with functional engineering that keeps the tyre seated securely during aggressive driving, cornering and high-speed circuits.

Key Features

• Graphite Grey Satin Chrome Beadlock Wheels — The beadlock ring design physically clamps the tyre bead to the wheel rim, preventing tyre slip or rotation during extreme cornering, jumps and aggressive track driving. This engineering means more consistent handling, predictable lap times and longer tyre life, making beadlock wheels the choice of competitive RC buggy racers throughout the UK.
• Anaconda 2.2in Performance Street Tyres — These dedicated street compound tyres feature a unique rubber formulation engineered to deliver incredible traction across various track surfaces whilst maintaining exceptional tread life. The Anaconda compound is recognised among RC enthusiasts for providing reliable grip and responsive handling characteristics that reward smooth driving technique.
• Foam Inserts Included — Each tyre comes fitted with foam inserts which provide structural support, shape retention and absorb impacts during aggressive driving. The foam construction prevents tyre deformation, maintains consistent contact patch with the ground, and contributes to responsive handling feedback from corner entry through exit.
• Pre-Assembled and Ready to Install — These wheels and tyres arrive fully assembled with the tyre already glued to the wheel and foam inserts installed. No additional assembly, gluing or preparation is required; simply remove from packaging and bolt them onto your Bandit front axles, saving you time and effort.
• OEM Traxxas Engineering — Manufactured to Traxxas's demanding quality standards and specifications, these are the genuine wheels and tyres your Bandit was designed to use. Using authentic OEM parts ensures perfect fitment, balanced weight distribution, optimal performance and the durability that comes from factory engineering.
• Bandit Front Position Specification — These wheels are specifically engineered and balanced for front axle fitment on the Traxxas Bandit 2WD buggy platform, ensuring correct weight distribution, steering feel and overall chassis balance for maximum performance.
• 2.2-Inch Wheel Diameter — The 2.2-inch diameter is the competition standard for 1/10 scale 2WD buggy racing and bashing, offering the ideal balance between acceleration, top speed and ground clearance for track and off-road environments.

Technical Performance

These assembled wheel and tyre units represent the convergence of authentic Traxxas engineering and proven performance compounds. The Anaconda tyres utilise a specialised rubber compound developed specifically for street and track use, delivering the traction characteristics demanded by competitive racers and enthusiastic bashers alike. The unique tread pattern works in conjunction with the foam inserts to maximise the contact patch whilst maintaining structural integrity through aggressive cornering, acceleration and braking zones. The satin chrome beadlock wheels feature precision machining and the functional beadlock design which mechanically locks the tyre sidewall to the wheel, eliminating any possibility of tyre rotation relative to the rim — a critical feature for maintaining consistent handling, predictable steering response and lap-to-lap consistency on the track. The graphite grey finish provides excellent visual contrast with the satin chrome beadlock ring, creating the professional appearance associated with competition-grade RC buggy setups. The foam inserts are engineered to the correct durometer and density to support the Anaconda tyre profile whilst allowing sufficient compliance to absorb track impacts and maintain traction over varied surfaces. This complete assembly has been factory-glued and balanced at Traxxas manufacturing facilities, ensuring that when you bolt these wheels onto your Bandit front axles, you're installing a precision component that contributes directly to performance, handling feel and overall driving experience. The 2.2-inch diameter is the established standard for 1/10 scale 2WD buggy competition and recreational bashing throughout the UK and worldwide, proven through thousands of hours of racing and testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels and tyres suitable for a Traxxas Bandit front axle? — Yes, these wheels and tyres are specifically engineered for Bandit front axle fitment. The part number TRX2479G designates this as a front-position assembly for the Bandit 2WD platform. They will bolt directly onto your front axle hubs without any modification or adaptation required.
• What makes Anaconda tyres different from other Traxxas tyre compounds? — The Anaconda tyre features a unique rubber compound formulation optimised for street and track conditions, delivering outstanding traction whilst maintaining exceptional tread life compared to softer competition compounds. This balanced performance makes Anacondas ideal for mixed-use driving, whether racing on prepared tracks, bashing at the skate park or practising on concrete surfaces.
• What are beadlock wheels and why should I use them? — Beadlock wheels feature a mechanical locking ring (the beadlock) that clamps the tyre bead directly to the wheel rim, preventing tyre rotation or slip during aggressive cornering, jumps and high-speed driving. This engineering delivers more consistent steering response, predictable handling characteristics and longer tyre life because the tyre maintains its intended position relative to the wheel throughout your driving session. Professional RC buggy racers throughout the UK and worldwide use beadlock wheels for competition because they contribute measurably to lap-time consistency and overall performance.
• Do the tyres come pre-glued to the wheels? — Yes, the Anaconda tyres are factory-glued to the wheels at Traxxas manufacturing facilities. The foam inserts are already installed inside the tyres. These are complete, ready-to-run assemblies requiring no additional preparation or gluing work — simply mount them onto your Bandit front axles and you're ready to drive.
• What foam inserts are included, and can they be replaced? — The correct foam inserts for the Anaconda 2.2-inch tyres are pre-installed at the factory. If the foams become worn or damaged through extended use, they can be replaced separately by carefully removing the old inserts and installing new ones inside the tyre. Replacement foam inserts are available as separate Traxxas parts for future maintenance.
• Are these 1/10 scale wheels? — Yes, these are 1/10 scale components designed for the Traxxas Bandit, which is a 1/10 scale 2WD off-road buggy platform. The 2.2-inch wheel diameter is the standard for this scale and platform.
• Will these wheels fit any other Traxxas models? — These wheels and tyres are engineered specifically for the Bandit front axle. Traxxas designs its wheel and tyre packages for specific models and axle positions to ensure optimal performance, balance and handling. Compatibility with other Traxxas models should be verified against official Traxxas documentation or by contacting RC Model Shop for technical guidance.
• How long will the Anaconda tyres last? — The Anaconda compound is specifically formulated for long tread life compared to softer racing compounds. Actual tyre life depends on your driving style, surface conditions and intensity of use. Smooth driving technique, regular maintenance and proper storage will maximise tyre lifespan. These are proven tyres trusted by competitive racers and bashers throughout the UK hobby scene.
