The FMS 11001 MT Tyres are premium replacement rubber compounds specifically engineered for the FMS FCX10 Toyota LC80 RC crawler and compatible 1/10 scale RC models. These tyres deliver exceptional grip and durability across diverse terrain types, making them an essential upgrade for serious RC enthusiasts in the UK who demand reliable performance. Whether you're tackling rocky crawls, muddy trails, or competitive course racing, these 1.9-inch tyres provide the traction and control that separates casual bashers from dedicated RC car enthusiasts.

RC crawlers, trail trucks, and scale models all benefit significantly from quality tyres that match their suspension geometry and driving demands.

For UK RC car enthusiasts seeking ready-to-run improvements or those building custom setups, these genuine FMS tyres represent exactly what serious hobbyists need. The pair format provides straightforward installation, and the proven FMS engineering means you're getting factory-quality components backed by genuine support. If you're serious about your 1/10 scale RC experience, investing in proper tyres is one of the most impactful upgrades you can make.

Key Features

• 25-Degree Compound Formula — This specific hardness rating ensures the tyre maintains consistent grip across varying temperature ranges and terrain types, providing stable handling whether you're driving in cool UK autumn conditions or warmer summer weather, whilst resisting premature wear from aggressive driving.
• 1.9-Inch Tyre Size — The 1.9-inch diameter is the industry standard for 1/10 scale RC crawlers and off-road models, ensuring proper ground clearance, suspension geometry alignment, and authentic scale proportions that enhance both performance and appearance.
• 4.72-Inch Outer Diameter — This specific measurement delivers the ideal rolling circumference for 1/10 scale platforms, directly affecting speedometer accuracy, gear ratio performance, and the natural feel of your RC vehicle during trail running and competitive events.
• Multi-Terrain Tread Pattern — The MT tyre design features aggressive outer edges combined with centre tread blocks, allowing these tyres to excel in mud, gravel, grass, asphalt, and rocky terrain without sacrificing predictability or causing excessive wear on manicured surfaces.
• Genuine FMS Engineering — As original equipment manufactured by FMS Hobby, these tyres are engineered to OEM specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and performance with FMS vehicles whilst maintaining compatibility with other major 1/10 scale platforms from trusted RC manufacturers.
• One Pair Package — You receive two complete tyres in this package, providing full coverage for either the front axle or rear axle of your RC vehicle, with the option to purchase multiple pairs for complete four-wheel upgrades or maintaining spare sets for different terrain conditions.
• Ready-to-Install Design — These tyres come unmounted and pre-fitted with standard 1/10 scale bead specifications, compatible with most aftermarket and OEM wheels, allowing quick installation without specialised equipment beyond basic RC maintenance tools.

Technical Performance

The FMS 11001 MT Tyres represent precision rubber compound engineering specifically calibrated for 1/10 scale RC vehicles. The 25-degree hardness compound sits in the sweet spot between soft-compound track tyres and hard-wearing all-purpose alternatives, providing adequate durability for extended field sessions whilst maintaining the grip necessary for technical crawling and performance driving. The multi-terrain tread pattern features a combination of large outer blocks for mud and loose surface traction, centre grooves for water evacuation and asphalt grip, and internal reinforcement that resists chunking and delamination under cornering loads. At 1.9 inches diameter and 4.72 inches outer rolling circumference, these tyres provide the correct suspension articulation and steering response expected on modern 1/10 crawlers and trail trucks. The manufacturing tolerances ensure consistent roll diameter across pairs, eliminating handling imbalances that occur with mismatched tyres. These are genuine FMS components engineered to the same specifications used on factory-built FCX10 models, meaning you're upgrading to components that have been field-tested and proven in professional RC applications. For UK RC car enthusiasts transitioning from budget alternatives or standard rock crawler tyres, the noticeable improvement in grip consistency and predictable wear characteristics justifies the investment in genuine factory components.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these FMS 11001 tyres compatible with vehicles other than the FCX10 LC80? — Yes, the 1.9-inch size and 4.72-inch outer diameter make these tyres compatible with most 1/10 scale RC crawlers, trail trucks, and off-road models from other manufacturers, provided your existing wheels are designed for standard 1/10 scale bead fits. However, always verify wheel compatibility before purchasing to ensure proper fitment.
• What does the 25-degree compound rating mean for my RC driving? — The 25-degree hardness rating indicates a medium-durability compound that balances grip with longevity, making these tyres suitable for varied terrain and all-day driving sessions without excessive wear, whilst providing adequate traction on loose and technical surfaces compared to harder street-compound alternatives.
• How do these FMS tyres compare to aftermarket or economy alternatives? — FMS original equipment tyres are engineered to precise specifications using quality rubber compounds, ensuring consistent diameter, predictable wear patterns, and performance characteristics that match the suspension tuning of FMS vehicles; budget alternatives often exhibit inconsistent sizes and unpredictable handling that can mask suspension problems.
• Do I need to mount these tyres on new wheels, or can I use my existing wheels? — These tyres are supplied unmounted, compatible with standard 1/10 scale beaded wheels; you can mount them on your existing wheels provided they are designed for 1.9-inch tyres, though having them professionally mounted on a tyre machine ensures proper seal and balanced rotation.
• What is the expected lifespan of the FMS 11001 MT Tyres? — The 25-degree compound formula provides extended life compared to softer race compounds, with typical durability of 15-25 hours of active driving depending on surface aggressiveness, driving style, and whether you're using them on rock, mud, grass or asphalt terrain.
• Are these suitable for beginners purchasing their first 1/10 scale RC crawler? — Absolutely; FMS factory tyres are designed for all skill levels and provide the reliable performance that allows beginners to focus on learning vehicle control rather than fighting unpredictable tyre characteristics, making them an excellent upgrade investment for any RC enthusiast new to the hobby.
