Overview
The FTX Rokatan Mounted Front Tyre Set (FTX10139) is an essential replacement or upgrade component for owners of FTX Rokatan and Apache 2.0 1/10 scale RC vehicles. These pre-mounted front tyres are engineered to deliver reliable traction and consistent performance across a variety of terrain types, making them ideal for anyone looking to maintain their RC car UK collection in peak condition. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast or someone relatively new to the hobby, having a quality spare set of tyres on hand ensures your RC vehicle is always ready for action without lengthy downtime.
FTX is a respected name in the ready to run RC market, and this tyre set reflects their commitment to providing genuine replacement parts that maintain the performance standards of their vehicles. The Rokatan platform is known for its versatility and durability, and these mounted front tyres are specifically designed to complement the vehicle's suspension geometry and handling characteristics. This is not a generic tyre — it's a purpose-built component that works in harmony with the rest of your FTX Rokatan or Apache 2.0 RC chassis to deliver predictable cornering, stable braking and confident acceleration across multiple surface types.
Mounted tyres are a practical choice for RC enthusiasts because they arrive ready to bolt straight onto your vehicle, eliminating the need for tyre removal tools, mounting machines or assembly time. If you're preparing for weekend bashing sessions, competitive events or regular recreational driving, having a spare set of mounted tyres means you can swap them quickly and get back to enjoying your brushless RC vehicle without interruption. The FTX10139 represents excellent value for money and the peace of mind that comes with having genuine OEM parts in your RC garage.
Key Features

- Pre-Mounted Ready-to-Run Design — The tyres arrive mounted and balanced on the wheels, eliminating setup time and allowing you to install them directly onto your RC vehicle's front hub axles.
- Multi-Terrain Capability — Designed to perform reliably across grass, dirt, concrete and mixed outdoor surfaces, these tyres provide consistent grip without compromising on durability or tread life.
- Compatible with FTX Apache 2.0 Brushless RTR Models — These front tyres fit FTX5498V2R (Apache 2.0 Red) and FTX5498V2B (Apache 2.0 Blue) ready to run RC trophy trucks, as well as the original FTX Rokatan platform.
- Essential Replacement Part — Tyres are a consumable item in RC racing and bashing; having genuine OEM replacements ensures your vehicle maintains its original handling balance and performance envelope.
Technical Performance
The FTX Rokatan Mounted Front Tyre Set is engineered to work seamlessly with the Rokatan and Apache 2.0 1/10 scale brushless RC vehicles. These vehicles are equipped with brushless motors and electronic speed controllers capable of delivering responsive acceleration and high-speed performance, and the front tyres must provide appropriate grip and feedback to match that capability. The tread pattern and rubber compound have been selected to deliver predictable feedback through the steering system, allowing drivers to modulate throttle and braking inputs with confidence. The mounting is precise, ensuring that both front tyres roll true and maintain balanced weight distribution across the vehicle's front axle. When used as part of a complete FTX Rokatan or Apache 2.0 setup, these tyres contribute to the vehicle's overall stability during cornering and its ability to maintain traction during acceleration and braking events. The quality of the rubber compound means these tyres resist excessive wear during typical recreational use while still providing the compliance and grip necessary for smooth operation across varying terrain densities.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will the FTX10139 front tyres fit my FTX Rokatan or Apache 2.0? — Yes, these tyres are the original equipment specification for the FTX Rokatan platform and are specifically compatible with the FTX Apache 2.0 1/10 brushless trophy truck RTR models, including the FTX5498V2R (Red) and FTX5498V2B (Blue) versions. They are designed to bolt directly onto your vehicle's front hub assembly with no modifications required.
- Are these tyres pre-mounted or do I need to fit them myself? — The FTX10139 is a complete mounted tyre set, meaning the tyres arrive already fitted to the wheels and ready to install. You simply need to remove your current front wheels and fit these replacements using your hex driver or appropriate hub tool. No tyre removal, mounting or balancing is required.
- What terrain are these front tyres suitable for? — These tyres are designed for general-purpose RC use across grass, dirt, concrete and mixed outdoor surfaces typical of UK RC bashers and enthusiasts. They provide reliable traction across these varied terrain types without requiring different sets for different conditions.
- Do I need any tools to fit these tyres to my Rokatan? — You will need a hex key or socket tool that matches your Rokatan's front hub specification to remove the existing wheels and install the new mounted tyres. The process is straightforward and takes just a few minutes.
- Are these original FTX parts? — Yes, the FTX10139 Mounted Front Tyre Set is an original equipment manufacturer part supplied by FTX for the Rokatan and Apache 2.0 vehicle platforms. This ensures perfect compatibility and performance consistency with your vehicle.
- Why would I need replacement front tyres? — Tyres are a wear item in RC use. Over time, through regular bashings, outdoor running and occasional collisions, tread wear occurs and rubber can harden. Having genuine replacement tyres ensures your vehicle maintains its original handling characteristics and performance. Many RC enthusiasts keep spare tyre sets to minimise downtime during competitions or weekend sessions.
