Key Features

• 1.9-inch Wheel Size — These tyres are designed specifically for 1.9-inch wheels, which is the industry-standard size for 1/10 scale rock crawlers and trail trucks, ensuring perfect fitment and compatibility with popular RC models without the need for wheel adaptors or modifications.
• 4.65-inch Overall Diameter — The substantial diameter provides excellent ground clearance and rolling resistance characteristics, allowing your RC crawler to navigate over obstacles and rough terrain more effectively whilst maintaining stable handling characteristics.
• Rock Crawler Specialist Design — These tyres are engineered specifically for rock crawling and trail driving applications, with an aggressive tread pattern optimised for maximum grip on loose surfaces, rocks, mud, and natural terrain rather than smooth racing surfaces.
• Included Tyre Inserts — Each pair comes with tyre inserts supplied, which are essential for maintaining proper tyre structure and preventing sidewall collapse during challenging off-road driving, eliminating the need to purchase inserts separately.
• Front and Rear Compatibility — These tyres can be used on both front and rear axles of your RC vehicle, providing versatility and allowing you to maintain consistent grip characteristics across all four wheels for balanced handling and control.
• 1/10 Scale Performance — Purpose-built for 1/10 scale rock crawlers, these tyres deliver proportionally realistic performance and maintain the aesthetic appeal of scale trail trucks whilst delivering the grip and durability needed for serious off-road use.

Technical Performance

The Element RC General Grabber X3 Tyres represent a significant engineering achievement in 1/10 scale rock crawler rubber. The aggressive tread pattern is meticulously designed to bite into uneven terrain, loose gravel, and rocky surfaces whilst maintaining consistent contact patch throughout dynamic driving conditions. The rubber compound used in the General Grabber X3 has been formulated to remain grippy across a wide range of temperatures and weather conditions common to UK off-road environments, from cold winter trails to wet summer conditions. The inclusion of tyre inserts with each pair demonstrates Element RC's attention to detail, as these inserts prevent the tyre sidewalls from collapsing under the lateral forces generated during technical rock crawling manoeuvres. The 4.65-inch diameter provides the optimal balance between ground clearance for obstacle negotiation and rolling diameter for realistic scale proportions. These tyres are engineered to work seamlessly with the complete Element RC Enduro range, including the Ecto Trail Truck, Sendero HD, Trailwalker, and Enduro trail trucks available in various colours including green, tan, black, and grey. The construction quality ensures durability through repeated rock crawling sessions and technical terrain challenges whilst maintaining the consistent performance characteristics that separate professional-grade RC tyres from budget alternatives.
