Key Features
- Pre-Mounted Configuration — The Klaxon tyres arrive already mounted on the wheels, eliminating the need for separate tyre mounting, balancing or sealing. This means you can simply unbox the wheels and fit them directly to your truck, saving considerable time and effort while ensuring perfect fitment and balance that factory specifications guarantee.
- 2.8-Inch Wheel Diameter — The substantial 2.8-inch diameter provides excellent ground clearance and aggressive visual stance, whilst maintaining the correct gearing ratio and performance characteristics for 1/10 scale RC trucks. This size is the industry standard for truck-class vehicles and maximises your speed and traction potential.
- 12mm Hex Connection — The 12mm hex drive is the universally recognised standard for 1/10 scale RC trucks, ensuring compatibility with the vast majority of truck platforms available in the UK market. This connection type provides secure, reliable fitment that won't slip or bind during aggressive driving sessions.
- White 12-Spoke Wheel Design — The striking white finish with traditional 12-spoke layout delivers a premium, professional appearance that suits any colour scheme or truck build. The multi-spoke design distributes weight evenly and provides excellent structural rigidity whilst maintaining a lightweight construction that reduces unsprung mass.
- Klaxon Compound Tyre — The proven Klaxon tyre compound has been engineered specifically for 1/10 truck applications, offering the optimal balance between grip, durability and predictable handling characteristics. This compound excels in both dry and slightly damp conditions, providing confidence-inspiring traction for all driving styles.
- Front and Rear Fitment — These wheels are genuinely universal fit for both front and rear axle positions on your truck, giving you complete flexibility in your setup. You can run a matching set throughout or mix and match tyre compounds based on driving conditions and personal preference.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/10 Klaxon Truck Tyre Mounted on 12-Spoke wheels represent a carefully engineered solution for serious RC truck enthusiasts. At 2.8 inches in diameter, these wheels strike the perfect balance between aggressive stance and practical performance, providing the ground clearance needed for serious off-road work whilst maintaining correct speed and acceleration characteristics. The 12-spoke white wheel design isn't merely aesthetic—the engineering of the spoke pattern distributes impact loads effectively during jumps, landings and rough terrain driving, extending the operational life of your wheels significantly compared to cheaper alternatives. The Klaxon compound tyre has been specifically formulated through extensive testing to deliver consistent grip across the types of terrain UK RC enthusiasts typically encounter, from dry packed earth to slightly damp grass and gravel surfaces. The pre-mounted configuration eliminates common issues like tyre bead separation or unbalanced wheels that can occur during installation, ensuring you achieve factory-quality performance immediately. These are replacement or upgrade wheels suitable for matching sets on FTX Carnage 2.0 trucks and other compatible 1/10 scale platforms, representing a genuine improvement over standard equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What trucks are these wheels compatible with? — The 12mm hex connection and 2.8-inch diameter make these wheels compatible with most 1/10 scale RC trucks including the FTX Carnage 2.0 range in both red and blue versions, as well as many other mainstream truck platforms. If your truck uses a 12mm hex drive system and accepts 2.8-inch wheels, these will fit perfectly. Check your truck's specifications or contact our team if you're unsure about compatibility.
- Are these suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. The pre-mounted design makes installation straightforward for anyone, whilst the Klaxon tyre compound provides forgiving, predictable handling that helps newer drivers build confidence. These aren't race-specific equipment requiring expert tuning—they're designed for reliable, accessible performance across all skill levels.
- Why are these wheels pre-mounted? — Pre-mounting eliminates the risk of improper installation, ensures perfect balance from the factory, and saves you time and effort. Professional-grade mounting requires specialist equipment and knowledge; by pre-mounting, Fastrax ensures you get perfect fitment and performance immediately out of the box.
- What makes the Klaxon compound special? — The Klaxon compound has been engineered specifically for 1/10 truck use, offering the optimal balance between grip and durability. It provides excellent traction in dry conditions and performs admirably in slightly damp environments, whilst maintaining the durability needed for sustained driving sessions without premature wear.
- Can I use these wheels in wet conditions? — The Klaxon tyres perform well in dry and slightly damp conditions typical of UK outdoor RC driving. In heavy rain or flooded terrain, tyre grip will be reduced and you may want to consider specialist wet-weather compounds, but for normal seasonal UK conditions, these tyres deliver consistent performance.
- How long do these tyres last? — Tyre lifespan depends entirely on your driving style, terrain and maintenance. The Klaxon compound is engineered for durability and resists premature wear even with aggressive driving. Regular inspection for chunks or damage will help you identify when replacement is needed, typically after many hours of enjoyable driving.
