Key Features
- Pre-glued and Ready to Install — The tyres come pre-mounted and pre-glued to the wheels, saving you hours of preparation work and eliminating the uncertainty of DIY tyre gluing, which can result in poor fitment or damaged rims.

- Genuine FTX Manufacturing — These are authentic FTX parts produced to the same quality standards as complete ready-to-run kits, guaranteeing reliability and durability through multiple bashing sessions and races.
- Sold as a Pair — You receive two rear wheels and tyres, providing complete coverage for the rear axle of your 1/10 scale buggy, allowing you to keep one set as spares whilst running another.
- 2.2-inch Wheel Diameter — This size is purpose-designed for 1/10 scale buggy geometry, providing optimal ground clearance, suspension geometry and overall vehicle dynamics without modification to your chassis.

Technical Performance
These FTX Vantage rear buggy tyres deliver exceptional performance characteristics that make them ideal for both recreational bashing and competitive racing. The pre-glued construction uses quality adhesive bonding that withstands the rotational forces, impacts and terrain variations encountered during typical RC buggy operation. The tyre compound is formulated to provide consistent grip across a range of temperatures and surface conditions, maintaining traction whether you're running on moisture-dampened clay or dry summer grass. Users have reported that the tyres provide excellent grip immediately after installation, with many noting noticeable improvements in cornering performance and acceleration response compared to worn standard tyres. The 2.2-inch wheel diameter maintains the correct suspension geometry and ride height for 1/10 scale buggies, ensuring that your vehicle's handling balance and response characteristics remain optimised. The wheels themselves are engineered to withstand the rotational stress, landing impacts and occasional obstacle strikes that are inevitable in RC buggy operation, though like all plastic components they should be treated with appropriate care during use. The 12mm hex fitting system ensures straightforward installation without requiring additional adaptors or modifications, allowing you to swap sets in just minutes. Many UK RC enthusiasts use multiple sets of these wheels and tyres to suit different weather conditions and running surfaces, with spare sets proving invaluable during competition days or extended bashing sessions.
