Overview

The RC4WD Dirt Grabber 1.9" All Terrain Tyres (Z-T0005) are purpose-built scale truck tyres designed to deliver versatile performance across a broad range of driving conditions.

Supplied as a ready-to-fit pair with foam inserts included, these 1.9" tyres are an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their RC car UK setup with premium scale-accurate rubber that won't let you down when it matters most.

Versatility is the name of the game when it comes to Dirt Grabber. Built by RC4WD, a recognised leader in scale RC products and accessories, these tyres are engineered specifically for the demands of trail and crawler applications where longevity and all-terrain traction are paramount. The advanced X3 soft compound formula delivers peerless longevity, even wear characteristics, and excellent durability that will keep your RC vehicle performing consistently, whether you're driving in your garden, at a local RC track, or exploring challenging off-road terrain. If you're serious about getting the best performance from your 1.9" wheel setup, these tyres represent a significant step up in quality and reliability.

As a UK-based RC retailer, RC Model Shop stocks the genuine RC4WD Dirt Grabber tyres in ready-to-ship condition. These tyres are compatible with RC4WD 1.9" wheels such as the Z-W0003, and in many cases will also fit other manufacturers' 1.9" wheel sizes, making them a flexible upgrade option for countless trail and crawler platforms. For a complete truck setup, you will typically need two sets of these tyres to equip all four wheels, so plan your purchase accordingly.

Key Features

• Advanced X3 Soft Compound — The proprietary soft rubber compound formulation used in these tyres has been developed by RC4WD to provide exceptional grip across various surface types whilst maintaining excellent durability and resisting premature wear, meaning your investment will last longer than standard budget alternatives.
• Supplied as a Pair with Foam Inserts — Each purchase includes two complete tyres and two foam inserts, so you receive everything needed for immediate installation on a pair of 1.9" wheels without additional purchases or compatibility concerns.
• All-Terrain Design — The tread pattern and construction are optimised for performance across multiple terrain types, from smooth track surfaces to loose dirt, rocks, and challenging off-road conditions, making these tyres genuinely versatile for the RC crawler and trail driver.
• Even Wear Characteristics — The advanced compound and tread design work together to promote even wear across the tyre surface, extending the lifespan of each tyre and delivering consistent performance throughout their usable life rather than degrading unevenly as lesser-quality tyres often do.
• Scale Accuracy — With an outer diameter of 3.85 inches (97.8mm), these tyres maintain authentic scale proportions that give your RC vehicle a properly finished, realistic appearance on the trail.
• 1.9 Inch Wheel Compatibility — The inner diameter of 1.9 inches (48mm) ensures a secure fit on genuine RC4WD 1.9" wheels and is designed to work with other manufacturers' 1.9" wheels, though RC4WD recommends verifying compatibility with your specific wheel before purchase.
• Lightweight Construction — Each tyre weighs just 1.85 ounces (52g), keeping unsprung weight to a minimum which benefits suspension performance, handling characteristics, and battery runtime on your RC vehicle.
• Width Specification — At 1.22 inches (31mm) wide, these tyres provide a balanced footprint that offers good ground contact without excessive drag or rubbing on wheel arches in most trail and crawler applications.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD Dirt Grabber 1.9" All Terrain Tyres represent a professional-grade solution for serious RC enthusiasts who demand consistent, reliable performance from their scale vehicles. The engineering philosophy behind these tyres focuses on delivering real-world durability and all-terrain capability rather than chasing outright speed or single-surface specialisation. The advanced X3 soft compound has been carefully formulated to strike the ideal balance between grip and longevity—a genuine challenge in tyre development where softer compounds typically wear faster. The tread pattern is designed to bite effectively on loose surfaces like dirt and gravel whilst maintaining adequate edge bite for rocky terrain and rocky crawling scenarios. At 97.8mm outer diameter, these tyres will sit approximately 5.2mm smaller than the original equipment tyres fitted to certain RC4WD platforms, which is an important consideration if you're upgrading from factory rubber. The 31mm width provides a realistic scale proportion and adequate ground contact patch for trail driving without excessive rolling resistance. The lightweight 52-gram specification per tyre keeps rotational inertia low, which benefits acceleration, deceleration, and handling response. When paired with quality foam inserts (included with your purchase), these tyres will deliver predictable handling characteristics across the speed range your RC vehicle is capable of achieving. The compound remains pliable across temperature ranges typical of UK outdoor RC driving conditions, meaning performance remains consistent whether you're driving on a warm summer afternoon or cooler autumn day.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will the RC4WD Dirt Grabber 1.9" tyres fit my RC crawler or trail truck? — These tyres are designed to fit RC4WD 1.9" wheels such as the Z-W0003, and are compatible with many other manufacturers' 1.9" wheels as well. However, due to the varying design methodologies used by different manufacturers, we recommend verifying compatibility with your specific wheel before purchase. RC4WD can only guarantee that RC4WD tyres and wheels work together seamlessly, though in many cases they will work with other brand combinations. If you're unsure, contact our team at RC Model Shop and we'll help you verify fitment for your specific vehicle.
• How do these Dirt Grabber tyres compare to the original equipment tyres on my RC vehicle? — The Dirt Grabber tyres are approximately 5.2mm smaller in outer diameter than the original factory tyres fitted to certain RC4WD models, which may affect ground clearance and gearing slightly. However, the advanced X3 soft compound delivers superior grip and durability compared to most standard factory rubber, making them an effective upgrade for enhanced trail performance and longer-lasting wear characteristics.
• Are these tyres suitable for beginners and casual RC drivers? — Absolutely. The Dirt Grabber tyres are purpose-designed for everyday driving and light to moderate off-road use, making them ideal for RC enthusiasts of all experience levels. Whether you're just discovering RC vehicles for the first time or you've been driving for years, these tyres will deliver dependable performance without requiring specialist knowledge or extreme setup adjustments. The included foam inserts are ready to install, so there's no additional preparation required.
• Do I need two sets of these tyres for my RC truck or crawler? — For a complete truck setup with four wheels, you will typically need two sets of the Dirt Grabber tyres to ensure all four corners are equipped consistently. Each package contains two tyres and two foams, so purchasing two packages will give you a complete set of four tyres and four foam inserts.
• Will these tyres work well in wet conditions and muddy terrain? — The all-terrain tread design and soft compound formulation are optimised for performance across various surface conditions including loose dirt, mud, and challenging terrain. However, extreme mud-plugging scenarios or continuous waterlogged conditions may require tyre designs with more aggressive tread patterns. For typical UK trail driving and moderate off-road use, these tyres will deliver excellent all-terrain capability.
• How long will a set of Dirt Grabber tyres last compared to budget alternatives? — The advanced X3 soft compound and professional-grade construction deliver peerless longevity and even wear characteristics, meaning these tyres will significantly outlast budget alternatives. Real-world lifespan depends on driving conditions, terrain harshness, and driving style, but the tyre's engineered durability makes them an excellent value proposition over time despite the higher initial investment.
