- Foam Insert Included — Each tyre includes a high-quality foam insert that provides essential support and sidewall stability during aggressive driving, preventing tyre rollover and maintaining consistent performance throughout the tyre's lifespan.
- Optimised Tyre Dimensions — With a tyre width of 43mm and diameter of 107.5mm, these tyres are precisely proportioned to deliver the handling characteristics and ground clearance expected on modern 1/10 short course trucks, ensuring your vehicle maintains ideal ride height and weight distribution.
- Black Colour Finish — The aggressive black colour scheme complements virtually any RC vehicle paint scheme and body colour, providing a clean, professional appearance whether you're competing or enjoying casual bashing sessions.
Technical Performance
The Louise RC SC-TURBO 1/10 RR tyres represent a significant step forward in soft compound short course tyre technology. The 43mm width and 107.5mm diameter specifications have been carefully engineered to deliver optimal contact patch and load distribution across the tyre's surface, ensuring maximum grip without excessive rolling resistance that could drain battery performance. The soft compound rubber is formulated to remain responsive and grippy across a wide temperature range, from cold winter RC sessions to hot summer racing events. The foam inserts included with each tyre provide essential internal support that prevents excessive flex and sidewall deformation during high-speed cornering and aggressive acceleration. The pre-glued construction means you're getting tyres that have been professionally mounted and bonded by specialists who understand the precise tolerances required for optimal on-track performance. These tyres are compatible with 1/10 short course vehicles including the Traxxas Slash R, Traxxas Slash 4x4 FR/R, and SCRT10 FR/R platforms, making them an excellent upgrade or replacement option for anyone running one of these highly popular RC trucks in the UK RC community.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What vehicles do these Louise RC SC-TURBO tyres fit? — These tyres are specifically designed for 1/10 short course trucks with 12mm hex fitment. Compatible vehicles include the Traxxas Slash R, Traxxas Slash 4x4 FR/R, SCRT10 FR/R, and Blitz FR/R platforms. If you own one of these vehicles, these tyres will mount directly without any modifications required.
- Are these tyres suitable for track racing or just bashing? — The soft compound construction makes these tyres exceptionally versatile. They excel in both competition racing environments and casual bashing scenarios. The soft compound provides excellent grip for racing, whilst the durable construction and foam inserts handle the impact and stresses of off-road bashing without rapid wear.
- Do I need to glue these tyres myself? — No, these tyres arrive pre-glued and ready to fit straight out of the box. The wheels are already bonded to the tyres using professional-grade adhesive, so you simply need to fit them to your vehicle's hexagonal wheel hubs and you're ready to drive.
- What is the difference between soft and medium compound tyres? — Soft compound tyres like this SC-TURBO set provide significantly more grip and traction than medium compound alternatives. This additional grip translates to better cornering speeds, improved acceleration, and faster lap times, though soft tyres may wear slightly faster during extended use on abrasive surfaces.
- What makes Louise RC tyres a good choice? — Louise RC has established an excellent reputation within the UK RC community for delivering high-quality tyres at competitive prices. Their products are designed and manufactured to strict quality standards, yet remain affordable compared to premium branded alternatives, making them an excellent value proposition for enthusiasts at any experience level.
- Can I use these tyres in wet conditions? — Yes, the soft compound and tread pattern are designed to maintain grip even in damp or wet conditions. However, as with all RC tyres, extremely muddy or waterlogged terrain may reduce performance compared to dry conditions.
