Key Features

• Pre-Glued and Assembled — These wheels and tyres arrive ready to install straight from the box, eliminating the need for messy glue-ups or separate assembly steps. This saves you valuable setup time and ensures professional-quality bonding that you'd be hard-pressed to achieve at home, making installation quick and hassle-free.
• Gravel-Pattern Rally Tyres — The unique directional tread pattern is specifically engineered for rally-style driving, offering superior traction on pavement, dirt, gravel and mixed surfaces. The high-grip rubber compound grips multiple terrain types effectively, giving you confidence in any driving condition whether you're tackling a forest stage or racing on tarmac.
• Dual Profile Wheel Design — With an outer diameter of 2.2 inches and an inner diameter of 3.0 inches, the dual profile design provides optimal balance between ground clearance and stability. This geometry helps maintain consistent handling characteristics across different driving surfaces and conditions.
• White 12-Spoke Rally-Style Wheels — The sleek white finish with distinctive 12-spoke pattern not only looks fantastic but also provides the lightweight strength necessary for responsive handling. The rally-style design is recognised by RC enthusiasts worldwide as the hallmark of serious performance vehicles.
• Foam Inserts Included — Each wheel comes equipped with foam inserts that absorb impacts and vibrations whilst maintaining tyre shape during aggressive driving. These foam inserts are essential for maintaining consistent performance and tyre longevity, especially during high-speed applications.
• TSM Rating — These wheels and tyres carry Traxxas's TSM (Traxxas Stability Management) rating, certifying them for high-speed applications and demanding driving conditions. This rating provides assurance that the product meets strict performance and safety standards.
• 12mm Hex Fitment — Compatibility with standard 12mm hex hubs makes these wheels versatile across multiple Traxxas models, including 4WD front and rear positions, as well as 2WD rear installations. This universal fitment approach maximises the value of your purchase.
• Pack of Two — Supplied as a matched pair, these wheels ensure consistent performance across your RC vehicle's contact patches. Having identical pairs guarantees balanced handling and predictable cornering dynamics.

Technical Performance

These Traxxas rally wheels and tyres represent the pinnacle of modern RC component engineering, combining lightweight construction with durable materials specifically selected for demanding applications. The dual profile design provides the perfect compromise between aerodynamic efficiency and mechanical grip, whilst the gravel-pattern rubber compound utilises advanced polymer chemistry to deliver consistent performance across temperature variations and surface types. The foam inserts act as a secondary suspension element, absorbing high-frequency vibrations that would otherwise be transmitted to the chassis and affecting steering precision. At 2.2 inches outer diameter and 3.0 inches inner diameter, these tyres fall into the ideal size range for 1/10 scale rally vehicles, offering the geometric advantage of lower rolling resistance whilst maintaining adequate ground clearance for technical terrain. The white powder-coated finish on the aluminium 12-spoke wheels provides both aesthetic appeal and corrosion resistance, critical for UK driving where moisture and salt exposure are common. The pre-glued construction uses industrial-grade adhesive formulations that cure to factory specifications, ensuring the tyre doesn't separate from the wheel even under the extreme lateral forces experienced during high-speed cornering or aggressive rally manoeuvres. These are not entry-level consumables; they represent genuine Traxxas OEM components engineered to endure competitive use and deliver the responsive, predictable handling that serious RC drivers demand.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What Traxxas rally cars are these wheels compatible with? — These TRX7473 wheels are specifically designed for 1/10 scale rally vehicles and fit multiple Traxxas models including the Ford Fiesta ST Rally VXL, the Ford Fiesta ST Rally BL-2S, and other compatible 1/10 scale platforms. The 12mm hex fitment works with 4WD front or rear positions, and 2WD rear applications. Always check your specific vehicle model to confirm fitment before ordering.
• Are these tyres suitable for outdoor use on UK terrain? — Absolutely. The gravel-pattern rally tyres are specifically engineered for mixed-surface driving including pavement, dirt, gravel and loose surfaces commonly found on UK tracks and terrain. The high-grip rubber compound maintains traction in damp British weather conditions, and the directional tread pattern channels water and debris effectively.
• Do these wheels come ready to install? — Yes, these wheels arrive fully assembled and pre-glued, ready for immediate installation onto your 12mm hex hubs. You don't need to perform any assembly or bonding; simply fit them to your vehicle and you're ready to drive. This eliminates the mess and uncertainty of home tyre gluing.
• What does TSM-rated mean? — TSM stands for Traxxas Stability Management, which is Traxxas's rating system certifying components for safe use in high-speed applications. These wheels and tyres meet strict performance standards and are approved for use at speeds over 60 mph, ensuring they can handle the demands of competitive and recreational driving.
• How long do these tyres typically last? — Tyre lifespan depends heavily on driving style, surface conditions and maintenance. Rally tyres generally provide good longevity for recreational use, though competitive drivers may see faster wear. Regular inspection and proper inflation help extend tyre life significantly.
• Can I use these on 2WD vehicles? — Yes, these wheels are compatible with 2WD Traxxas rally vehicles in the rear position. However, they are optimised for 4WD use. Check your specific vehicle documentation to confirm proper fitment before installation.
• What's the difference between these and Traxxas SCT wheels? — Rally wheels like these TRX7473 feature a more refined 12-spoke design optimised for on-road rally driving with smaller overall dimensions. SCT (Short Course Truck) wheels feature beadlock-style designs with larger profiles, engineered for off-road and loose-surface performance. Choose based on your vehicle type and intended use.
