Technical Performance
The Fastrax Scale Eagle Spare Tyre Cover measures 125mm in diameter, positioning it as a proper 1/10 scale accessory that maintains correct proportions with standard TRX-4 body shells and other scale components. The cover is engineered from quality materials designed to withstand both display and active use on trail crawlers, whether you're running your TRX-4 through rocky terrain or competing in organised scale RC events. The tyre cover features the distinctive Eagle branding that adds character and authenticity to your build, and its design language complements both stock Traxxas bodies and custom scale shells. Installation involves mounting the cover to the rear of your TRX-4 using existing mounting points or compatible brackets, and once fitted, it requires minimal maintenance while providing maximum visual impact. The construction quality reflects Fastrax's reputation for producing durable, aesthetically accurate scale accessories that enhance rather than compromise your vehicle's performance. This is a display and realism enhancement rather than a performance-affecting component, meaning it can be fitted to any TRX-4 variant without affecting handling, durability, or operational capabilities.
