Key Features

• Stub Tyre Compound — The distinctive stub tread pattern is engineered for maximum grip on grass and low-grip surfaces, giving you superior traction and predictable handling compared to slick or deeply treaded alternatives, which means you can push harder through corners with confidence.
• Pre-Mounted on White Spoked Wheels — These tyres arrive fully mounted and balanced on eye-catching white spoked wheels, saving you time and effort whilst ensuring perfect fitment and alignment from the moment you open the box.
• 12mm Hex Drive Standard Fitment — The universal 12mm hex drive fitting ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 1/10 scale buggies, making installation straightforward without requiring adapters or modifications to your existing vehicle.
• 2.2-Inch Diameter — This size is the industry-standard specification for 1/10 scale front buggy wheels, providing optimal ground clearance and suspension geometry for balanced handling characteristics across all driving conditions.
• Attractive Spoked Wheel Design — The six-spoke wheel design looks fantastic on display and at the track, whilst the structural design helps reduce unsprung mass and improves responsiveness compared to heavier dish-style alternatives.
• Purpose-Built for Grass Running — Users consistently report that the Stub tyre compound provides noticeably better grip and control when running on grass compared to standard factory-issue wheels, making this an ideal upgrade for outdoor RC car racing in the UK.

Technical Performance

The Fastrax 1/10th Stub Front Spoked Wheels deliver impressive real-world performance that belies their modest price point. The stub tyre compound is specifically formulated to excel on grass and low-grip track surfaces, providing the responsive steering and predictable handling that makes racing genuinely enjoyable. The 2.2-inch wheel diameter sits at the perfect sweet spot for 1/10 scale buggies, maintaining optimal suspension geometry and ride height whilst keeping your vehicle's centre of gravity low for improved cornering speed. The white spoked wheel design isn't merely aesthetic—the six-spoke structure reduces rotating mass compared to solid dish wheels, meaning your RC buggy will respond more quickly to throttle and steering inputs, crucial when you're competing at the track or simply enjoying weekend bashing sessions. The 12mm hex drive is the universal standard for 1/10 scale RC cars, ensuring these wheels will fit your FTX Vantage 2.0, Traxxas models, Team Associated platforms and countless other popular RC buggies without requiring any additional adapters or modifications. Build quality is excellent, with the tyres glued securely to the wheels at the factory and pre-balanced for smooth, vibration-free running. Whether you're upgrading from standard stock wheels or replacing worn tyres on your existing setup, the Fastrax Stub Front Spoked Wheels represent a straightforward path to noticeable performance improvements on grass and low-grip surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these Fastrax Stub tyres suitable for beginners upgrading their RC buggy? — Yes, absolutely. These tyres are exceptionally beginner-friendly because they arrive fully mounted and ready to bolt straight onto your vehicle—there's no need for tyre gluing, balancing or wheel mounting knowledge. Simply unbox them and install them on your existing RC car setup. The predictable handling characteristics and excellent grass grip also make them perfect for new drivers learning vehicle control techniques.
• What makes Stub tyres different from other tyre patterns? — Stub tyres feature short, aggressive tread blocks designed specifically for low-grip surfaces like grass and dirt tracks. Unlike slick tyres which rely on pure compound grip, or deeply treaded tyres for mud, Stub tyres offer the sweet spot between speed and traction, providing excellent grip without sacrificing rollover stability or predictability. Customers report noticeable improvements in handling and cornering speed compared to standard factory wheels.
• Will these wheels fit my RC buggy? — The Fastrax 1/10th Stub Front wheels feature the universal 12mm hex drive fitment, which means they're compatible with the vast majority of 1/10 scale buggy platforms including FTX Vantage 2.0, Traxxas models, Team Associated buggies, Team Losi platforms and many others. If your buggy uses a standard 12mm hex drive, these wheels will fit perfectly without adapters or modifications.
• How many wheels do I get in this package? — This package contains one pair—two wheels total—which is exactly what you need for your front axle. If you want to upgrade the rear axle as well, you would need to purchase the separate rear tyre package.
• Are these tyres suitable for tarmac or on-road running? — These Stub tyres are optimised for grass and low-grip surfaces. While you can technically run them on tarmac, they're not specifically designed for road surfaces and may not provide the same performance characteristics as purpose-built on-road tyres. For dedicated tarmac running, consider Fastrax's on-road tyre range.
• Do these wheels need any preparation before use? — No preparation is required. The tyres arrive pre-mounted, glued and balanced on the wheels, ready for immediate installation on your RC buggy. Simply remove them from the packaging and bolt them onto your vehicle's front axle using the 12mm hex drive fittings.
• What colour are the wheels? — The wheels feature an attractive white finish that provides excellent visual contrast and looks fantastic on any RC buggy colour scheme, whether your car is black, red, blue, green or any other shade.
• What is the wheel diameter? — These wheels measure 2.2 inches in diameter, which is the industry-standard specification for 1/10 scale front buggy wheels, ensuring perfect compatibility with your vehicle's suspension geometry and ride height.
