ARRMA has engineered these tyres specifically for the demands of small-scale RC driving. The Chevron tread pattern is scientifically designed to handle grass, dirt, carpet and concrete with equal competence.

This is not simply a cosmetic upgrade—it's a functional improvement that enhances traction, handling and overall driving experience.
Key Features
- Multi-surface Chevron tread pattern — The distinctive Chevron groove design provides awesome traction across all conditions, whether you're driving on grass, loose dirt, tarmac or indoor carpet. This versatility means you can take your GROM anywhere without worrying about tyre suitability.
- Pre-glued and ready to fit — Unlike loose tyres that require messy contact adhesive and time-consuming mounting, these come factory-glued to the wheels. Simply unbox them and install on your RC truck, saving valuable setup time and eliminating the risk of poor glue application.
- High-quality dBoots rubber compound — ARRMA's dBoots brand is renowned for durability and consistent performance. The rubber formulation resists wear during aggressive driving whilst maintaining grip levels throughout the tyre's lifespan, delivering reliable traction from the first drive to the last.
- Tough nylon wheel construction — The wheels are manufactured from reinforced nylon, a material chosen specifically for its impact resistance and durability during extreme driving. This means they can handle the rigours of bashing without cracking or shattering, even when you land jumps or make hard contact with obstacles.
- Dish wheel design — Beyond pure aesthetics, the dish profile increases wheel strength and allows for better lateral support during cornering and high-speed manoeuvres. The design also creates that distinctive ARRMA look that catches attention.
- 12mm hex connection — The industry-standard 12mm hex fitting ensures compatibility with your GROM whilst offering the strength needed for extreme driving action. The hex format also makes wheel removal and installation simple, enabling quick tyre swaps or maintenance without special tools.
- Pink colour for head-turning ARRMA styling — The vibrant pink finish is instantly recognisable and transforms the appearance of your GROM, making it stand out from standard black or blue setups. Colour options matter to RC enthusiasts, and this pink set delivers genuine visual impact.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA dBoots Chevron MT Tire Set combines thoughtful engineering with proven materials to deliver reliable performance in the demanding 1/16 scale arena. The Chevron tread pattern is not arbitrary—it's an engineered tread design that creates multiple contact points and grooves to manage water displacement, enhance grip on loose surfaces and provide consistent traction transitions when moving between different terrain types. The rubber compound used in dBoots tyres is formulated to remain responsive across temperature ranges, meaning your GROM maintains consistent handling whether you're driving in cool British autumn conditions or warmer summer sessions. The nylon wheel construction, whilst lightweight enough to maintain agility in a 1/16 scale vehicle, incorporates structural reinforcement that prevents deformation during hard cornering. The dish wheel design works in concert with the tyre profile to optimise ground contact and lateral stability. With 12mm hex fittings, the wheels offer industry-standard compatibility and straightforward serviceability—when tyres do eventually wear, replacement is as simple as unbolting and installing a fresh set. The pre-glued mounting eliminates variables associated with home tyre gluing, ensuring consistent fitment and optimal tyre-to-wheel adhesion from the factory.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these tyres pre-glued and ready to fit on my ARRMA GROM? — Yes, the dBoots Chevron MT tyres come pre-glued to the ARRMA wheels. They are ready to install directly onto your GROM without any additional adhesive, mounting equipment or waiting time for glue to cure. Simply remove them from the package and fit them using a 12mm hex driver.
- What ARRMA models are these compatible with? — These tyres are specifically designed for 1/16 scale ARRMA GROM models. Compatible vehicles include the ARRMA 1/16 GORGON GROM 4X4 RTR (available in Yellow, Bronze and Red variants) and the ARRMA 1/16 QUAKE GROM 4X4 RTR (available in Purple, Green and Red variants). They feature 12mm hex fittings, which is standard for GROM series vehicles.
- What terrain can I use these tyres on? — The Chevron tread pattern is engineered for multi-surface use. These tyres perform excellently on grass, dirt, loose gravel, tarmac and indoor carpet surfaces. The tread design manages multiple terrain transitions effectively, making them versatile for general bashing and recreational driving rather than specialised track use.
- How durable are the dBoots Chevron tyres? — dBoots is ARRMA's professional tyre brand, and the Chevron compound is formulated for long-lasting performance. The high-quality rubber resists excessive wear during aggressive driving and maintains grip consistency throughout the tyre's usable lifespan. However, tyre life depends on driving style and surface conditions; frequent bashing on abrasive terrain will wear tyres faster than lighter recreational use.
- Can I use these tyres if I already have ARRMA wheels? — These are complete pre-mounted wheel and tyre assemblies, not loose tyres. You'll need to replace your existing wheels entirely, as the tyres are factory-glued to these specific ARRMA wheels. You cannot separate the tyre from the wheel.
- What is the pink colour like—will it fade? — The pink finish is applied to tough nylon wheel material. ARRMA uses UV-resistant pigments to minimise fading, but like any plastic colour, extended outdoor sun exposure can gradually lighten the hue over months. This is cosmetic and does not affect performance.
- How do I replace these tyres when they wear out? — When the Chevron tread becomes significantly worn, you can purchase a replacement set of dBoots Chevron MT tyres or explore alternative tyre options in the same 12mm hex format. The 12mm hex fitting means various tyre brands are available as replacements, giving you flexibility to try different tread patterns or compounds.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. The pre-glued design makes these ideal for beginners who want to avoid the complexity of mounting and gluing tyres. Installation is straightforward, requiring only a hex driver tool. The Chevron tread is beginner-friendly across multiple surfaces, and the robust nylon wheels can withstand the occasional crash that comes with learning.
