Simply remove the protective packaging, fit them to your compatible Traxxas vehicle, and you're ready for action.

Key Features

• Pre-assembled and pre-glued construction — These wheels and tyres arrive completely assembled with foam inserts already fitted, eliminating the need for time-consuming mounting, balancing, and gluing at home. This means you can go from unboxing to driving in minutes rather than hours.
• BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres — Based on the legendary BFGoodrich real-world tyre design, these off-road focused tyres deliver exceptional traction in mud, loose soil, gravel, and challenging terrain. The tread pattern and compound are specifically engineered for maximum grip on unprepared surfaces.
• Blue beadlock-style SCT wheels — The chrome SCT wheels feature a distinctive blue beadlock-style trim ring that provides an authentic, competition-grade appearance. The beadlock design offers visual appeal whilst maintaining structural integrity during aggressive driving.
• TSM®-rated glue joints — Traxxas uses TSM® (Traxxas Stability Management) rated adhesive technology to ensure the tyre-to-wheel bond is unbreakable through impacts, hard cornering, and sustained off-road punishment. This professional-grade bonding method guarantees your tyres stay secure.
• Foam inserts included — Premium foam inserts are already fitted inside each tyre, providing the perfect balance of cushioning and support. These inserts improve ride compliance over rocks and roots whilst maintaining responsive handling characteristics.
• 12mm hex compatibility — The wheels feature the standard 12mm hex drive interface, ensuring universal compatibility with the vast majority of modern Traxxas RC vehicles and many other brands' models that use standard metric hex hubs.
• 4WD and 2WD versatility — These wheels are suitable for 4WD models on both the front and rear axles, or 2WD models on the rear axle only, making them highly flexible for different vehicle configurations and platforms.

Technical Performance

From an engineering perspective, these Traxxas wheels and tyres represent excellent value for money in the UK RC market. The BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 compound is specifically formulated to maintain grip across a wide temperature range and moisture conditions, crucial for British outdoor RC driving where weather can be unpredictable. The tread design features aggressive scoops and strengthening ribs that bite into loose surfaces, channelling dirt and mud away from the contact patch to maintain consistent traction. The foam inserts are engineered to the correct durometer hardness to provide shock absorption without sacrificing control—too soft and your handling becomes vague; too hard and every rock feels like hitting concrete. Traxxas has struck the right balance. The chrome and blue colour scheme of the SCT wheels isn't merely cosmetic; the wheel design distributes stress evenly around the rim structure, and the beadlock-style outer ring prevents tyre roll under cornering loads. The 12mm hex interface is precision-engineered with tight tolerances to eliminate play and ensure direct power transfer from your vehicle's drive shafts. These assembled, glued units represent the same quality control you'd expect from professional RC racing teams, with each set inspected before packaging to ensure consistency and performance reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which Traxxas vehicles are compatible with the TRX5867A wheel and tyre set? — These wheels fit any Traxxas model equipped with 12mm hex hubs. They are suitable for 4WD vehicles on both front and rear axles, or 2WD vehicles on the rear axle only. Compatible models include the Traxxas Slash, Stampede, Rustler, and other SCT-based platforms. If you're unsure whether your specific model is compatible, check your vehicle's manual or contact us for confirmation.
• Are these tyres suitable for on-road driving? — No, the BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres are specifically designed for off-road terrain. They are aggressive off-road pattern with large scoops, making them unsuitable for smooth surfaces like concrete or tarmac where they will wear quickly and provide poor handling. These tyres excel in mud, dirt, gravel, sand, and rocky terrain.
• Do these wheels come ready to use straight from the box? — Yes, completely. The wheels and tyres are pre-assembled, pre-glued with TSM®-rated adhesive, and include foam inserts. You simply need to fit them to your vehicle using the standard 12mm hex fitting. No tools or additional supplies are needed for installation.
• What makes Traxxas-glued tyres different from gluing tyres myself? — Traxxas uses professional-grade TSM® rated adhesive applied with precision machinery in a controlled factory environment. This ensures consistent, unbreakable glue joints that won't fail under the stresses of aggressive driving. Home-glued tyres, whilst possible, carry the risk of insufficient glue application, wrong glue type, or curing problems. Factory gluing offers peace of mind and reliability.
• Can I use these wheels on my 2WD Traxxas vehicle? — Yes, but only on the rear axle. The TRX5867A is specifically rated for 2WD rear use, not the front. The front suspension geometry of 2WD models differs from 4WD, and these wheels are optimised for rear-axle mounting on 2WD platforms.
• How long do these pre-glued tyres last before needing replacement? — Tyre life depends entirely on driving intensity, surface conditions, and maintenance. In moderate recreational use, a quality pre-glued tyre set will provide dozens of hours of bashings. In competitive driving or extreme off-road conditions, wear will be faster. The beauty of a pre-glued set is that when they do wear, replacement involves simply unbolting the old wheels and fitting new ones—no gluing required.
• Are the blue beadlock rings actually functional? — The beadlock-style rings on these wheels are primarily aesthetic, giving the wheels a competition-grade appearance. However, the overall wheel design, including the reinforced structure around the hex mounting point, is engineered to handle the stresses of aggressive RC driving.
