Overview

The Traxxas BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tyres represent authentic, licensed replica rubber that brings genuine scale realism to your 1/10 RC short course truck. These are not generic tyres—they're officially licensed replicas of the legendary BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 range, one of the most iconic all-terrain tyre designs in the world. Whether you're building a scale replica of a Ford F-150 Raptor or simply want your RC truck to look more authentic, these tyres deliver the visual impact and performance characteristics of real-world off-road rubber. For RC enthusiasts in the UK who care about scale accuracy and want their vehicles to look as impressive as they perform, these BFGoodrich tyres are an essential upgrade.

Designed specifically for SCT (Short Course Truck) wheels, these tyres feature a clever dual profile design that allows them to fit multiple wheel sizes on the same vehicle platform. The outer profile measures 2.2 inches in diameter whilst the inner diameter reaches 3.0 inches, giving you flexibility in how you configure your RC short course truck. This dual profile approach is particularly useful for builders who want to experiment with different wheel and tyre combinations without needing to purchase multiple sets of rubber. The inclusion of foam inserts means these tyres are ready to use straight from the box—no additional purchases required to get your truck rolling.

If you're shopping for RC car tyres in the UK, you'll find that authentic licensed replicas like these offer something mass-produced generic tyres simply cannot: the visual authenticity that transforms your scale model from a toy-like appearance into a genuinely impressive replica. The BFGoodrich name is recognised worldwide among off-road enthusiasts, and having that branding on your 1/10 RC short course truck elevates the entire presentation of your model.

• Dual Profile Design (2.2 inch Outer / 3.0 inch Inner Diameter) — This innovative dual profile construction allows these tyres to work with different wheel configurations, giving you flexibility in your build and potentially saving money if you want to experiment with different setups on the same vehicle.
• Foam Inserts Included — Rather than requiring you to source foam inserts separately, these come ready to install with quality foam inserts that provide proper suspension and handling characteristics, so you can get your truck running immediately.

Technical Performance

These Traxxas BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 tyres are engineered to provide reliable performance across various terrain types, from smooth tracks to rough outdoor surfaces. The tyre design incorporates the characteristic tread pattern of the real BFGoodrich KO2 range, which translates to a balanced grip profile that works well on both dry and slightly damp surfaces. The 4.5 inch x 1.7 inch dimensions provide substantial contact patch for a 1/10 scale short course truck, which translates to predictable handling and good traction without the risk of the vehicle feeling unstable or tippy. The dual profile design (2.2 inch outer diameter, 3.0 inch inner diameter) means these tyres are highly versatile—they can be mounted on different wheel sizes depending on your build requirements, making them suitable for various SCT configurations. The foam inserts supplied with each tyre are crucial to performance; they absorb impacts from obstacles and jumps, preventing the tyres from rolling off the wheels under aggressive driving and providing a compliant feel that modern RC drivers expect. The construction quality is typical of Traxxas replacement parts—durable rubber compound that resists tearing and degradation from UV exposure and repeated impacts, ensuring these tyres maintain their performance and appearance throughout their lifespan. For serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who run their vehicles on a regular basis, investing in quality replacement tyres like these is far more economical than constantly replacing damaged rubber, and the authentic appearance means your vehicle looks professional both on and off the track.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these BFGoodrich tyres fit my RC short course truck? — Yes, provided your vehicle uses SCT wheels, these tyres are designed to fit perfectly. The dual profile design (2.2 inch outer, 3.0 inch inner diameter) makes them compatible with various SCT wheel configurations. If you're unsure whether your specific vehicle uses SCT wheels, check your vehicle's documentation or contact us at RC Model Shop—our team can confirm compatibility for your particular model.
• Do I need to buy foam inserts separately? — No, foam inserts are included with this purchase. Each tyre comes with a foam insert ready to install, so you can mount these tyres immediately without additional purchases.
• What makes licensed replica tyres better than generic rubber? — Licensed replica tyres like these BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 designs offer superior scale accuracy and visual authenticity. Rather than generic tread patterns, you get the iconic KO2 design that's recognised by off-road enthusiasts worldwide. This transforms your 1/10 scale model from looking like a generic toy into a genuinely impressive scale replica that looks professional and authentic.
• Are these tyres suitable for outdoor use on all terrain? — These tyres are designed for SCT use and work well on mixed terrain including grass, dirt, and light gravel. The tread pattern provides balanced grip characteristics. For extreme mud or very rocky terrain, specialist tyre compounds might be required, but for general outdoor RC driving, these perform reliably across most conditions.
• How long do these tyres typically last? — Tyre lifespan depends entirely on usage. Heavy, aggressive driving on abrasive surfaces will wear them faster than casual bashing on grass. The Traxxas rubber compound is durable and resists tearing, but like all RC tyres, they'll eventually wear down with use. Most users find they get several months of regular use before needing replacement, making them an economical choice compared to replacing tyres more frequently.
• What is the difference between these and the standard Traxxas tyres? — These are officially licensed BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 replica tyres, meaning they feature the authentic KO2 tread design rather than generic Traxxas patterns. If visual authenticity and scale accuracy are important to you—whether you're building a display model or simply want your RC truck to look more realistic—these licensed replicas are superior. The performance characteristics are designed to match the real-world properties of the KO2 design, though as with all RC tyres, actual performance depends on track conditions and driving style.
