TRX8377G

Overview

The Traxxas Wheels & Tyres, Assembled Glued (Rear) TRX8377G represents the perfect solution for RC enthusiasts who want pre-assembled, ready-to-install wheel and tyre combinations without the hassle of mounting and gluing. These rear wheels and tyres come fully assembled and glued using Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue, the same professional-grade adhesive that holds the legendary XO-1's tyres firm at over 100 mph. Whether you're running a high-performance brushless RC car, stadium truck, or truggy, having a spare set of pre-glued rear wheels means you can spend more time driving and less time in the workshop. This is the authentic choice for UK RC enthusiasts who demand reliability and professional-quality components from their RC car setup.

Traxxas wheels and tyres are recognised worldwide for their exceptional durability and performance across all driving conditions. The rear assembly in this package is specifically engineered to handle the unique demands placed on rear wheels during acceleration, cornering and high-speed running. By purchasing pre-assembled and glued wheels from Traxxas, you're getting the exact same precision mounting and bonding that the factory techs use in their own workshop—no guesswork, no learning curve, just bolt-on performance from day one. This is ideal for competitive drivers, weekend bashers, and anyone looking to upgrade their RC car with confidence.

Ready-to-run RC solutions have transformed the hobby in recent years, and pre-assembled wheels are a natural extension of that convenience. Instead of spending time cleaning wheel channels and tyre beads with isopropyl alcohol, carefully applying drops of specialised glue around the bead, and then waiting for the adhesive to cure, you simply unbox the TRX8377G and fit them to your model. The engineering behind these wheels ensures they stay mounted securely, whether you're pushing your RC vehicle to its limits on a racing circuit or enjoying casual leisure driving in the UK.

Key Features

• Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue Application — These wheels and tyres are bonded using Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue, the professional-grade cyanoacrylate adhesive that was developed specifically to keep tyres secure on high-performance vehicles running at extreme RPM and speed. This is the only glue formulation rated for extreme Velineon brushless horsepower, making it the ultimate choice for modern RC cars where tyre separation could result in loss of control and damage.
• Factory-Quality Assembly — Every pair is assembled using the same techniques and standards as Traxxas factory technicians employ, ensuring perfect bead seating, optimal glue distribution, and consistent performance across the entire pair. This means you receive wheels that have been through quality control and are ready to deliver reliable service immediately upon installation.
• Horizontal Bead Design — Traxxas uses horizontal beads on wheels for applications requiring maximum tyre-holding power, providing superior resistance to tyre separation caused by centrifugal force during high-speed running. This design is standard on all Traxxas wheels and tyres that equip brushless and brushless-ready models, giving you the maximum performance advantage possible.
• Foam Inserts Included — These rear wheels come supplied with foam inserts, which provide cushioning and help the tyre conform to irregular surfaces whilst maintaining structural integrity under load. The foam also helps reduce vibration transmission to the chassis and provides better grip and feel during driving.
• Rear-Specific Engineering — These are rear wheels, engineered with the specific demands of rear traction and acceleration in mind. Rear wheels experience different forces than front wheels, and Traxxas designs them accordingly to optimise handling and tyre wear patterns.
• 12mm Hex Fitting — The standard 12mm hex drive fitting ensures these wheels are compatible with a wide range of Traxxas models and other quality RC vehicles using the same standard hub diameter. This universal fitting makes them a practical choice for those with multiple models.
• Professional Mounting and Sealing — The factory assembly includes proper seating of the tyre beads into the wheel channels with no high spots, and the glue bonding ensures the joint between tyre and wheel remains sealed. This prevents dirt ingress into the joint and maintains structural integrity throughout the lifespan of the tyres.
• Ready for Immediate Use — Unlike unglued wheels and tyres that require time-consuming preparation, cleaning, gluing, and curing, the TRX8377G can be installed on your RC car and driven immediately, making them perfect for competition, events, and keeping your hobby time focused on driving rather than maintenance.

Technical Performance

These assembled and glued rear wheels represent the pinnacle of factory wheel preparation for modern RC vehicles. The TRX8377G utilises Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue, a super-strong cyanoacrylate adhesive formula that was specifically developed during the engineering of the XO-1 to withstand the extreme centrifugal forces generated at 100+ mph and the outrageously high RPM required to achieve triple-digit speeds. The glue formulation is the only one rated for extreme Velineon brushless horsepower, making it suitable for the most demanding RC applications. The wheels feature horizontal bead design, which Traxxas specifies as the choice for all wheels and tyres on brushless and brushless-ready models due to the superior resistance to tyre separation caused by centrifugal force. The horizontal bead geometry maximises the mechanical resistance of the rubber bead against the wheel channel, ensuring the tyre stays true and secure during acceleration and cornering. The bead and channel interfaces have been precisely cleaned and prepared using the same standards as factory assembly, with proper isopropyl alcohol cleaning to remove mould-release agents that could interfere with adhesive bonding. The foam inserts provide structural support and compliance, allowing the tyres to deform appropriately to grip surfaces without fighting the spring effect of trapped air, whilst also absorbing vibration and extending tyre life. The 12mm hex fitting is the standard interface used across many Traxxas models and compatible RC vehicles, providing versatility and allowing these wheels to be used as spares or upgrades across multiple platforms. The rear-specific design takes into account the unique forces experienced by rear wheels during acceleration, braking, and high-speed cornering, optimising weight distribution and structural integrity for rear axle duty. For UK RC enthusiasts running competitive racing programmes or high-performance RC buggies, truggies, and stadium trucks, these wheels deliver the factory-proven reliability and performance that makes Traxxas vehicles recognised worldwide as competition-grade equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels pre-glued and ready to install straight from the box? — Yes, the TRX8377G are fully assembled and glued using Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue. They require no additional preparation—simply unbox them and bolt them onto your RC car's rear hubs. This saves significant time compared to sourcing separate wheels and tyres and performing the gluing process yourself.
• What glue is used to bond these tyres to the wheels? — These wheels are bonded using Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue, the professional-grade cyanoacrylate adhesive developed specifically for high-performance RC vehicles. This is the only glue formulation rated for extreme Velineon brushless horsepower and is proven to hold tyres secure at speeds exceeding 100 mph.
• Will these tyres stay on at high speed and high RPM? — Absolutely. The Traxxas Ultra Premium Tire Glue and horizontal bead design provide maximum resistance to tyre separation caused by centrifugal force. These are the same wheels and bonding method used on the legendary XO-1 and all brushless-ready Traxxas models, proving their performance at extreme speeds.
• What wheel fitting diameter do these wheels use? — These wheels feature the standard 12mm hex fitting, making them compatible with Traxxas models and other quality RC vehicles using the same hub specification. This is the most common fitting used in 1/10 scale RC cars in the UK.
• Are these rear or front wheels? — These are specifically rear wheels, engineered for rear axle installation. The rear-specific design takes into account the unique forces and requirements of the rear wheels during acceleration, braking, and cornering, providing optimal performance and wear characteristics when mounted on the rear of your vehicle.
• Can I replace just the rear wheels without buying front wheels? — Yes, these are sold as rear wheels only, allowing you to upgrade just the rear axle if desired. Many drivers keep multiple sets of rear wheels with different tyre compounds for various driving conditions and surfaces.
• Do these wheels come with foam inserts? — Yes, foam inserts are included and already fitted within the tyres. The inserts provide structural support and compliance, helping the tyres deform appropriately to grip surfaces whilst absorbing vibration and extending tyre life.
• What is the difference between pre-glued wheels and unglued wheels? — Pre-glued wheels like the TRX8377G come ready to install immediately, saving you the time-consuming process of cleaning wheel channels and tyre beads with isopropyl alcohol, carefully applying glue to the bead, seating the bead fully, and then waiting for the adhesive to cure. They also guarantee factory-quality assembly and bonding. Unglued wheels require you to perform all these steps yourself, which is more economical if you need many sets but requires workshop skill and time.
• Can I vent these tyres for water crossings or wet conditions? — The tyres come with factory-installed vents in the rims, which you can seal with poster putty if you want them to be watertight. If you want additional tyre venting for maximum airflow or wet-weather running, this is easier to do before mounting, but since these are already mounted and glued, additional venting would require carefully drilling through the bonded tyre, which is not recommended after assembly.
• Are these suitable for all Traxxas models? — These are rear wheels with 12mm hex fitting, so they're compatible with most Traxxas models and other quality RC vehicles using the same hub specification. Check your specific model's documentation to confirm compatibility with 12mm hex rear wheels.
