The Traxxas Wheels & Tyres, assembled and glued with SCT Split-Spoke black chrome beadlock style wheels and BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 ultra-soft S1 compound off-road racing tyres, represent a premium tyre and wheel package for serious RC enthusiasts across the UK. These pre-assembled, pre-glued wheels come as a pair and are ready to bolt straight onto your RC vehicle, eliminating the time-consuming task of mounting and gluing tyres yourself. Whether you're running a 4WD short course truck, 2WD stadium racer, or any compatible RC car, this package delivers the performance characteristics needed for competitive off-road racing and high-speed bashing alike. The combination of quality Traxxas engineering and genuine BFGoodrich tyres creates a winning setup that appeals to weekend bashers, competitive racers, and everyone in between looking to upgrade their RC car UK experience.

These wheels and tyres are specifically designed and TSM rated for high-speed applications, meaning they've been tested and proven to perform reliably at the sort of velocities that modern brushless RC vehicles can achieve. The pre-glued setup saves you valuable time at the track or before heading out for a weekend session, allowing you to focus on tuning your suspension, adjusting your driving lines, and actually enjoying your RC hobby rather than spending hours on preparation. The split-spoke design combined with the beadlock-style trim provides excellent visual appeal and genuine functional benefits for off-road running.

For UK-based RC enthusiasts seeking ready-to-run RC solutions without compromise, this Traxxas wheel and tyre package represents a genuine upgrade path that delivers measurable improvements in traction, handling consistency, and overall performance on both loose and hard-packed surfaces.

• Foam Inserts Included — Factory-installed foam inserts maintain tyre shape and structure during high-speed running, preventing tyre roll and ensuring consistent performance throughout a racing session or bashing adventure.
• TSM Rated for High-Speed Applications — Official TSM rating confirms these wheels and tyres have been tested and approved for the high-speed performance envelopes of modern brushless RC vehicles, giving you confidence in reliability during aggressive driving.

Technical Performance

These assembled wheels and tyres represent a significant performance upgrade for any serious RC enthusiast. The combination of the split-spoke wheel design with black chrome beadlock-style trim provides both visual appeal and genuine functional benefits. The wheels are engineered to accept standard 12mm hex connections, making them compatible with numerous 4WD front or rear applications and 2WD rear setups. The BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres feature the ultra-soft S1 compound specifically formulated for off-road racing applications where maximum grip is prioritised over tyre longevity. The foam inserts work in conjunction with the tyre compound to manage deflection and maintain consistent performance during the demanding conditions of competitive racing or high-speed bashing. The TSM rating confirmation indicates these components have been tested against Traxxas' rigorous performance standards and are certified suitable for high-speed driving in modern brushless-powered vehicles. The pre-glued mounting ensures consistent tyre pressure distribution and optimal surface contact without the variables that can be introduced through field gluing. The black chrome finish on the wheels provides durability against the inevitable mud, dirt, and water exposure that comes with serious off-road RC driving in the UK climate.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What vehicles are these Traxxas wheels and tyres compatible with? — These wheels feature a standard 12mm hex fitment and are designed for 4WD front or rear applications as well as 2WD rear setups. They're compatible with a wide range of Traxxas and other brand RC vehicles that use 12mm hex hubs. Check your specific model's manual to confirm compatibility before purchasing.
• Are the tyres already glued to the wheels? — Yes, these come completely pre-glued and mounted with foam inserts already installed. You simply need to attach them to your RC vehicle's hex hubs—no additional gluing, mounting, or preparation is required, saving you considerable time compared to buying separate wheels and tyres.
• What does TSM rated mean for RC tyres? — TSM rating from Traxxas confirms these wheels and tyres have been tested and approved for high-speed performance applications. TSM (Traxxas Stability Management) rated components are engineered to work reliably with modern brushless motors and ESCs that can push RC vehicles to high velocities, ensuring the tyres and wheels can handle the demands.
• What is the difference between these and standard off-road tyres? — The BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 tyres use an ultra-soft S1 compound specifically formulated for off-road racing, providing superior grip compared to standard recreational tyres. Combined with the professional-quality foam inserts and the factory gluing process, these deliver consistent performance that's difficult to achieve with home-assembled packages.
• Can I use these on both 4WD and 2WD RC vehicles? — Yes, the 12mm hex fitment makes them compatible with both 4WD vehicles (front or rear) and 2WD vehicles (rear), giving you flexibility if you run multiple models. However, always verify your specific vehicle's specifications to ensure proper fitment.
• How often will I need to replace these tyres? — Tyre lifespan depends heavily on driving conditions, surface types, and how aggressively you drive. The ultra-soft S1 compound grips exceptionally well but will wear faster than harder compounds. Competitive racers typically replace tyres regularly during the season, while weekend bashers can expect longer intervals between replacement.
• Are these suitable for beginners? — These wheels and tyres are premium-grade components best suited to intermediate and advanced RC enthusiasts. Beginners developing their skills might benefit from learning on standard recreational tyres before investing in performance racing-focused compounds. However, if you're upgrading an existing RC vehicle, these will immediately improve handling and grip.
