Key Features
- Ultra-soft Nitrile Rubber Compound — The signature compound of the NitraGrip series delivers superior indoor grip across multiple surfaces, ensuring your truck maintains traction whether you're running on polished tile, carpet, or mixed track conditions. This ultra-soft formulation is engineered to provide predictable, stable traction whether you're cornering hard, accelerating fast, or navigating challenging terrain.
- Raised Micro-Pin Tread Design — The precision tread pattern works synergistically with the ultra-soft compound to provide all-terrain performance in a micro-sized package. The micro-pin configuration channels water and debris whilst maintaining contact with the track surface, delivering the consistent traction that defines the NitraGrip line.
- Closed-Face Wheel Design with 7 mm Hex Hub — The durable closed-face wheel construction protects the tyres from dust and debris ingress, ensuring a long service life and maintaining performance over extended use. The 7 mm hex drive ensures a secure, slop-free fit on your Losi Micro-T or compatible 1/24 micro-truck platform.
- Precision Open-Cell Foam Inserts — Included with each tyre, these precision-cut foam inserts maintain shape and support the tyre structure, complementing the overall performance characteristics and ensuring consistent behaviour across varied track conditions.
- Factory-Mounted and Pre-Glued — All four tyres arrive fully assembled, mounted and glued, eliminating the need for time-consuming tyre mounting or adhesive application. This ready-to-run approach means you can unbox and immediately deploy your truck on the track without any preparation required.
- Front and Rear Compatible — This set is suitable for both front and rear wheel positions on your 1/24 stadium truck, providing a complete four-wheel tyre solution in a single purchase. This versatility simplifies inventory management and ensures consistent handling across all wheels.
Technical Performance
The METHOD RC NitraGrip 1/24 Truck Tyres represent precision engineering optimised for micro-scale indoor RC performance. The ultra-soft Nitrile Rubber compound has been formulated through extensive testing to deliver superior grip initiation and sustained traction across the widest possible range of track surfaces. The raised micro-pin tread design is not merely decorative—it serves a functional purpose in channelling debris whilst maintaining optimal contact patch with the running surface. The closed-face wheel design, constructed from durable material, prevents dust and debris infiltration into the wheel hub, a critical consideration for maintaining long-term reliability on dusty indoor tracks. The precision open-cell foam inserts are engineered to complement the tyre's flex characteristics, absorbing impacts and vibration whilst maintaining structural integrity. With a 7 mm hex interface, these tyres integrate seamlessly with the Losi Micro-T platform and compatible 1/24-scale micro-truck chassis. The factory-mounting process ensures optimal tyre seating and glue application, eliminating variables that could compromise performance. Whether you're pursuing competitive lap times or simply enjoying recreational driving, the NitraGrip series delivers the engineering rigour and quality finish expected of Method RC's product range.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these NitraGrip tyres suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. The factory-mounted and pre-glued construction makes these tyres ideal for beginners, as they require no tyre mounting, gluing or preparation. Simply unbox and attach to your 1/24 truck. The ultra-soft compound and raised tread design deliver consistent, predictable traction that helps newer drivers build confidence and develop smooth driving technique on a variety of indoor surfaces.
- What surfaces do these tyres perform best on? — The NitraGrip compound has been engineered to deliver superior grip on multiple indoor surfaces including polished tile floors, carpet tracks, and mixed-surface layouts. The all-terrain capability in a micro-sized package means you'll experience stable, consistent traction whether racing on dedicated RC carpet tracks or improvised indoor circuits. The micro-pin tread design channels debris effectively, maintaining contact with the running surface across varied conditions.
- Will these tyres fit my RC vehicle? — The METHOD RC NitraGrip 1/24 Truck Tyres are specifically designed for 1/24-scale stadium truck platforms with 7 mm hex hubs, most notably the Losi Micro-T. The closed-face wheel design integrates with this ecosystem seamlessly. Before purchasing, verify that your vehicle has a 7 mm hex drive interface and is in the 1/24 or 1/28 micro-truck category. The product specifications clearly identify compatibility, and the knowledgeable team at RC Model Shop can provide definitive guidance on fitment for your specific platform.
- How long do these tyres last before needing replacement? — The durability of these NitraGrip tyres depends on track surface, driving style and maintenance practises. The closed-face wheel design protects against dust ingress and wear, extending tyre life compared to open designs. Regular cleaning and inspection will maximise service life. When tyre grip deteriorates or tread wears noticeably, replacement is straightforward—simply swap the complete wheel-and-tyre assembly. Many RC drivers keep spare pre-mounted sets for back-to-back racing without downtime.
- Can I use these tyres outdoors? — These tyres are engineered specifically for indoor performance on tile, carpet and similar smooth track surfaces. Outdoor dirt or clay surfaces would cause rapid wear and unpredictable grip characteristics. The ultra-soft compound is optimised for indoor use and would degrade quickly on abrasive outdoor terrain. For outdoor RC truck use, consider Method RC's off-road tyre ranges engineered for durability on dirt and gravel.
- What is the difference between NitraGrip Truck and NitraGrip Buggy tyres? — The main differences are tread pattern and compound tuning optimised for each vehicle type. Truck tyres feature a specific tread design suited to stadium truck platforms, whilst buggy tyres are engineered for buggy-specific handling characteristics. Both use the signature ultra-soft Nitrile Rubber, but the tread geometry differs to match the suspension and driving characteristics of each vehicle class. Using the correct type for your vehicle maximises performance and grip consistency.
