Overview
The Traxxas Grey Mini XRT Wheels with Response Pro Tyres represent premium-quality replacement wheel and tyre assemblies designed specifically for the Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S RC car. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast looking to upgrade your Mini XRT's handling characteristics, or you're exploring the world of electric RC vehicles in the UK, these assembled wheels and tyres offer an exceptional combination of performance, durability and value. Pre-mounted and ready to install, these wheels eliminate the hassle of separate tyre mounting and balancing, allowing you to get back on the track or trail quickly and confidently.
These charcoal grey wheels feature Traxxas's innovative dual-profile design with a 2.1-inch outer diameter and 2.6-inch inner diameter, providing a distinctive aggressive stance whilst maintaining optimal performance characteristics. The Response Pro tyres, fitted with an S1 compound, are engineered to deliver responsive handling and consistent grip across a wide variety of surfaces. Whether you're running your RC car on asphalt, dirt tracks, or mixed terrain, these ready-assembled wheels and tyres will enhance your Mini XRT's performance and aesthetic appeal. The inclusion of foam inserts ensures excellent shock absorption and tyre consistency, critical factors for maintaining precise control during high-speed runs or technical manoeuvres. For RC car enthusiasts in the UK seeking reliable, high-quality replacement wheels and tyres, this is an excellent choice.
Sold as a pair, these assemblies allow you to replace either the front and rear wheels or create complete sets for multiple vehicles. The charcoal grey colour coordinates perfectly with various Mini XRT VXL-3S chassis colours, including red, blue, green and orange variants, making these a versatile upgrade option for collectors and competitive racers alike.
Key Features
- Dual-Profile Wheel Design — The innovative 2.1-inch outer and 2.6-inch inner diameter construction provides a unique appearance whilst offering superior handling balance, allowing your Mini XRT to respond precisely to steering inputs during both casual bashing sessions and competitive racing events.
- Response Pro Tyres with S1 Compound — These premium-quality tyres are formulated specifically for responsive handling and enhanced grip characteristics, ensuring your RC car maintains traction across diverse surface types from smooth asphalt to loose dirt terrain, which is particularly valuable for UK RC enthusiasts who race on varied track conditions.
- Pre-Mounted and Glued Assembly — The wheels and tyres come pre-mounted and securely glued together, eliminating the time-consuming process of mounting and balancing tyres yourself, allowing you to install these assemblies and begin driving immediately.
- Foam Inserts Included — The integrated foam inserts provide critical damping and tyre consistency, absorbing impacts and maintaining shape during aggressive cornering, which directly translates to improved handling response and longer tyre life compared to uninserted alternatives.
- Charcoal Grey Finish — The attractive charcoal grey colour offers a modern, professional appearance that complements all Mini XRT VXL-3S body colours whilst resisting dirt accumulation better than lighter finishes, keeping your RC car looking sharp between races.
- Compatible with Mini XRT VXL-3S — These wheels and tyres are specifically engineered for the Traxxas Mini XRT VXL-3S platform, ensuring perfect fitment and optimised performance when matched with the brushless 3S LiPo-powered chassis.
- Sold as a Pair — Each purchase includes two complete wheel and tyre assemblies, providing flexibility to replace front or rear wheels, or to maintain backup sets for extended racing sessions without waiting for tyres to cool between runs.
Technical Performance
These Response Pro tyres represent serious engineering designed for competitive RC racing and serious weekend bashing. The S1 compound formulation strikes an optimal balance between grip levels and tyre longevity, avoiding the extremes of soft compounds that wear rapidly or hard compounds that lack sufficient bite on cooler UK track conditions. The dual-profile wheel design—with the 2.1-inch outer diameter meeting the 2.6-inch inner measurement—creates a distinctive silhouette whilst providing the structural rigidity necessary to handle the power delivery from the Mini XRT VXL-3S brushless motor system. The foam inserts are engineered to absorb track irregularities and maintain consistent tyre shape through corners, preventing the sidewall flex that causes unpredictable handling in less sophisticated assemblies. The pre-glued construction ensures that tyres remain centred and balanced, critical for maintaining the precision handling expected from modern electric RC cars. Build quality reflects Traxxas's reputation for durability; these assembled wheels will withstand the demands of regular competitive use and aggressive recreational driving. The charcoal grey wheels are manufactured from durable nylon composite material that resists cracking and splitting whilst remaining lightweight, contributing to the overall performance envelope of your Mini XRT VXL-3S RC car.

Proper inflation and balanced driving will extend tyre life considerably.
- Can I use these wheels on other Traxxas models? — These wheels are specifically engineered for the Mini XRT platform and fitment cannot be guaranteed on other Traxxas models.

Always verify compatibility before purchasing replacement wheels for alternative models.
- What makes the dual-profile wheel design special? — The 2.1-inch outer and 2.6-inch inner diameter construction provides superior handling balance whilst creating an aggressive, purposeful appearance that distinguishes your Mini XRT from standard wheel designs.
