These are not generic aftermarket wheels—they are genuine Traxxas factory-assembled and pre-glued components designed to deliver exceptional handling, durability and visual appeal from the moment you unbox them. Whether you're a seasoned RC racer, a weekend basher, or someone exploring the exciting world of RC car UK hobby, these wheels and tyres are engineered to perform at the highest level without requiring time-consuming assembly or tyre gluing at home.
What makes this wheel and tyre combination stand out in the crowded RC accessories market is the careful engineering that goes into every component. The split-spoke green wheels feature an attractive modern design that looks stunning on any RC vehicle, whilst the 1.9" Response Tyres provide the grip, durability and predictable handling characteristics that serious RC drivers demand. The VXL rating means these tyres are specifically designed and tested to handle the power and torque delivery of Traxxas's legendary VXL brushless systems, ensuring maximum traction without sacrificing longevity. The extra-wide rear specification (designated as rear fitment) optimises weight distribution and cornering performance, making these an ideal choice for competitive drivers, off-road bashers, and anyone who refuses to compromise on quality.
The pre-glued assembly means you're purchasing a ready-to-fit solution that saves you valuable setup time. Rather than purchasing wheels and tyres separately and spending hours at the workbench preparing them for use, the TRX8374G arrives fully assembled and bonded, allowing you to install them on your RC vehicle and get straight out on the track or trail. This level of convenience, combined with Traxxas's reputation for quality and performance, makes these wheels and tyres an excellent investment for any RC enthusiast in the UK seeking genuine, reliable components.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Wheels & Tyres TRX8374G are engineered to the exacting standards that have made Traxxas the world's leading ready-to-run RC manufacturer. The split-spoke wheel design balances strength with lightness, a critical consideration in RC racing where unsprung weight directly impacts acceleration, braking and handling response. The wheels are manufactured to precise tolerances that ensure perfect fitment to Traxxas wheel hubs, eliminating the wobble or play that can compromise performance. The 1.9-inch Response tyres feature a tread pattern optimised for mixed-surface performance, providing reliable grip on tarmac, carpet, dirt and grass surfaces without excessive rolling resistance. The tyre compound has been formulated to maintain consistent grip across a wide temperature range, which is particularly important for UK RC drivers who may encounter varying weather conditions throughout the year. The pre-glued assembly means the bond between wheel and tyre has been applied using professional adhesive and curing techniques that exceed what most hobbyists can achieve at home, resulting in wheels that remain perfectly centred and true even under the extreme G-forces and impacts encountered during high-speed running. The extra-wide rear specification (rear fitment) is particularly valuable for drivers running high-powered brushless systems like the Traxxas VXL, as the wider contact patch provides superior traction for acceleration and braking whilst maintaining consistent handling characteristics throughout a race or bashing session. The VXL rating confirms these tyres have been validated to perform reliably under the specific power and torque characteristics of Traxxas brushless drivetrain systems, eliminating guesswork about compatibility and performance expectations.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels suitable for my brushless RC car? — Yes, these wheels are specifically VXL rated, which means they have been engineered and tested by Traxxas to handle the power delivery and torque output of their brushless motor systems. If you're running a Traxxas brushless vehicle like the TRX-4, Rustler VXL, Slash VXL, or similar models, these wheels are an excellent choice that delivers the performance and durability these powerful systems demand.
- Can I use these wheels on other RC vehicles? — These wheels are designed specifically for Traxxas compatibility due to their wheel hub fitment specifications. They will fit Traxxas vehicles with standard wheel hubs, but compatibility with non-Traxxas models cannot be guaranteed. We recommend checking your vehicle's manual or contacting our team at RC Model Shop to confirm fitment before purchasing.
- Do I need to glue these tyres myself? — No, these wheels and tyres arrive fully assembled and pre-glued from the factory. This is one of the primary advantages of purchasing them as a ready-made set—you simply bolt them on to your vehicle and go. The factory glue bond is cured and tested to Traxxas quality standards, ensuring reliability without the effort of home assembly.
- What type of terrain are these tyres suitable for? — The 1.9-inch Response tyres are designed for mixed-surface performance and deliver consistent grip on tarmac, carpet, dirt, grass and similar surfaces. They are road-course and off-road capable, making them versatile for a wide range of RC driving scenarios whether you're racing on a track, bashing in a park, or exploring rough terrain.
- Why are these wheels described as extra-wide for the rear? — The extra-wide rear specification provides a wider contact patch with the ground, which improves traction during acceleration and braking whilst also enhancing stability during high-speed cornering. This is particularly beneficial for brushless RC vehicles which deliver significant power and require the improved traction and handling that wider tyres provide.
- Are these official Traxxas products? — Yes, these are genuine Traxxas factory-produced components. The model number TRX8374G is the official Traxxas designation, and these wheels are manufactured to the same quality standards as all OEM Traxxas parts. Purchasing genuine Traxxas components ensures compatibility, performance and warranty support.
- What is the difference between the response tyres and other Traxxas tyre options? — Response tyres are a mainstream all-purpose tyre option from Traxxas engineered for reliable mixed-surface performance. Different tyre models in the Traxxas range serve different purposes—some are optimised for high-speed road courses, whilst others are designed for extreme off-road or rocky terrain. The Response tyres strike an excellent balance between grip, durability and versatility, making them suitable for a wide range of driving styles and surfaces.
