Key Features
- Licensed Hoosier Angle Block Tyres — These tyres feature the same angle block tread pattern as full-size dirt oval racing tyres used at professional tracks everywhere, which means you're getting genuine racing-inspired grip and handling characteristics that deliver consistent and predictable performance for both Slash Modified and Late Model racing classes.
- Wide Tread Blocks and Stiff Sidewalls — The tyre construction includes wide tread blocks combined with a reinforced stiff sidewall design, which together provide the mechanical grip and sidewall stability needed for aggressive cornering whilst maintaining predictable handling characteristics lap after lap without unpredictable tyre roll or flex.
- 2-Stage Foam Inserts — The two-stage foam insert system is specifically engineered to improve ride quality, absorb track vibration, and promote more consistent tread wear across the entire tyre surface, which directly translates to longer tyre life and better value for money over extended racing sessions.
- Reinforced Outer Tyre Wall — The reinforced construction of the outer tyre wall helps prevent tyre deformation and uneven wear patterns, ensuring that your tyres perform consistently from the first lap to the last, maintaining predictable grip levels throughout your racing session.
- Graphite Grey Dual-Profile Steelie-Style Wheels — These wheels are designed with a classic steelie-style dual-profile appearance that replicates the authentic look of real dirt oval racing wheels, bringing genuine period-correct aesthetics to your RC car whilst being engineered for durability and proper mass distribution.
- Pre-Mounted and Pre-Glued — Both wheels come completely assembled with foam inserts already installed and tyres permanently glued to the wheels, which means there is absolutely no setup, building, or assembly required; simply unbox and bolt them onto your RC car using the 12mm hex fitting.
- Pair of Two Wheels — You receive two complete rear wheel and tyre assemblies per pack, providing a matched pair that delivers balanced, predictable handling on both sides of your RC car for true straight-line acceleration and consistent cornering performance.
- Versatile Compatibility — These wheels feature a 12mm hex fitting that allows them to be used on either the front or rear of 4WD models, or on the rear of 2WD models, giving you flexibility in how you set up your RC car depending on your racing discipline and personal preferences.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Dirt Oval Grey Rear Wheels w/ Hoosier Tyres are engineered for competitive dirt oval RC racing with meticulous attention to performance details. The Hoosier tyres feature licensed Angle Block tread patterns that replicate the characteristics of genuine full-size dirt oval racing tyres, providing the cornering grip and acceleration traction that competitive RC racers require. The wide tread blocks work in conjunction with the reinforced stiff sidewalls to deliver consistent predictable handling without the variance that can occur with softer, more flexible sidewall designs. The 2-stage foam insert system addresses one of the critical performance factors in RC racing: vibration isolation and tyre consistency. By using a two-stage foam construction, Traxxas engineers the inserts to absorb high-frequency track vibrations from rough dirt surfaces whilst maintaining the structural support needed for consistent tyre shape during aggressive cornering manoeuvres. The reinforced outer tyre wall prevents the lateral flexing and deformation that can cause uneven tread wear and unpredictable handling characteristics, meaning your tyres maintain their performance envelope for a longer period of use. The graphite grey wheels are manufactured using a hard-wearing material designed to withstand the stresses of competitive racing whilst maintaining proper structural integrity. These are production-quality components engineered and tested by Traxxas, the world's leading manufacturer of Ready to Run RC cars, ensuring that every aspect of the wheel and tyre package meets the same quality standards as their factory-assembled vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What RC cars do these Dirt Oval wheels fit? — These wheels are designed for 1/10 scale RC cars with 12mm hex hubs. They are compatible with the Traxxas Slash Modified and Late Model dirt oval racers in all five available colours: blue, orange, red, green, and pink. They can be used on both the front and rear of 4WD models, or on the rear only of 2WD models. Check your specific model's compatibility before ordering.
- Why choose Hoosier brand tyres for RC racing? — Hoosier is a recognised manufacturer of genuine racing tyres used at real dirt oval racing tracks worldwide. The licensed Hoosier Angle Block pattern included in this package gives your RC car the same tyre technology and grip characteristics as genuine racing vehicles, meaning you're not using generic off-the-shelf tyres but rather purpose-engineered racing compounds and tread designs.
- Do these wheels come glued and ready to install? — Yes, the Hoosier tyres come already glued to the graphite grey wheels and the foam inserts are pre-installed. You simply need to bolt them onto your RC car using the 12mm hex fitting; no tyre gluing, foam insert installation, or wheel balancing is required from you.
- What is the benefit of the 2-stage foam insert system? — The 2-stage foam insert construction provides dual benefits: it reduces vibration from rough track surfaces, which improves handling consistency and comfort, whilst simultaneously promoting even tread wear across the entire tyre surface. This means your tyres last longer and maintain predictable grip characteristics throughout their lifespan, representing better value and more reliable performance session after session.
- Can I use these on the front of my RC car? — The 12mm hex fitting allows these wheels to be used on the front of 4WD dirt oval racers. However, they are specifically engineered as rear wheels for dirt oval racing applications. For optimal performance, use them on the rear where dirt oval racing demands the most traction, or consult your vehicle manual regarding front and rear wheel applications for your specific model.
- How do these compare to standard RC tyres? — These are not standard RC tyres; they are licensed Hoosier racing tyres engineered specifically for dirt oval racing. The Angle Block tread pattern, reinforced sidewalls, and racing compound are all designed to replicate genuine dirt oval racing characteristics, providing superior cornering grip and acceleration traction compared to general-purpose RC tyres, along with more predictable and consistent handling.
- What maintenance do these wheels and tyres require? — These pre-glued, pre-assembled wheels require minimal maintenance. After each racing session, brush away any dirt or debris from the tread surface with a soft brush. Check that the wheels are still properly seated on your hex hubs before each session. The glued construction means you won't need to re-glue the tyres, though monitor them during use for any signs of separation or damage.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Whilst these are high-performance tyres engineered for competitive racing, the pre-assembled and pre-glued design makes them very user-friendly for anyone new to RC. Simply bolt them on and go racing. Beginners benefit from the consistent, predictable handling of quality racing tyres, which helps develop better driving skills compared to inferior tyre compounds.
