FTX Mauler 2.2 Inch All Terrain Tyres with Memory Foam Inserts 1/10 RC Rock Crawler FTX8765

Overview

The FTX Mauler 2.2" All Terrain Tyres with Memory Foam represent a premium tyre solution for serious RC rock crawlers and 1/10 scale trail enthusiasts. Whether you're tackling challenging terrain with your FTX Kanyon or Mauler 2.0 rock crawler, these all-terrain tyres deliver exceptional grip, traction and control across varied surfaces. Designed for the UK RC car market where weather conditions and diverse landscapes demand versatile performance, these tyres are an essential upgrade for anyone serious about maximising their RC crawler's capabilities.

Memory foam insert technology represents a significant advancement in RC tyre engineering. Unlike traditional solid inserts, memory foam provides superior shock absorption and maintains tyre shape throughout aggressive crawling sessions. This innovation makes a tangible difference when navigating rocky terrain, logs, and obstacles where tyre deformation and rebound affect vehicle control and forward momentum. The 2.2-inch size positions these tyres in the sweet spot for 1/10 scale rock crawlers, balancing ground clearance, articulation and overall vehicle geometry.

FTX has engineered these all-terrain tyres to work across front and rear positions, simplifying your setup and giving you flexibility in matching tyre combinations to specific terrain conditions. Available at RC Model Shop, these tyres represent excellent value for money and deliver the performance you'd expect from FTX's established reputation in the ready to run RC crawler category.

Key Features

• Memory Foam Insert Technology — Unlike conventional rigid foam inserts, memory foam naturally conforms to terrain irregularities and rebounds consistently, improving traction on uneven surfaces and reducing vibration transmission to your chassis and electronics during aggressive crawling sessions.
• 2.2-inch Diameter — This specific size is optimised for 1/10 scale rock crawlers, providing the ideal balance between ground clearance for obstacle clearance and proportional tyre sidewall flex for improved articulation on challenging terrain.
• All-Terrain Tread Pattern — The aggressive block pattern and carefully designed siping provides excellent grip across multiple surface types including rocky ground, hard-packed earth, gravel, and loose terrain, making these tyres genuinely versatile rather than specialised for one surface type.
• Front and Rear Compatible — These tyres can be mounted on both front and rear axles, giving you configuration flexibility and the ability to purchase multiple sets and rotate them based on wear patterns or specific terrain challenges.
• Genuine FTX Product — As an official FTX tyre option, these are engineering-matched to FTX crawler specifications and work seamlessly with FTX's suspension geometry and weight distribution designs.
• Pair Included — Each pack contains two complete tyres with inserts, sufficient for a single axle or providing you with spare options for maintaining your RC crawler fleet.

Technical Performance

These all-terrain tyres represent FTX's commitment to delivering crawler-specific performance through thoughtful engineering. The 2.2-inch diameter positions them perfectly within the 1/10 scale rock crawler segment, where they work in harmony with the articulation and suspension travel characteristics of vehicles like the FTX Kanyon 4x4 RTR and FTX Mauler 2.0 4x4 Rock Crawler. The memory foam insert technology differentiates these tyres from budget alternatives; traditional foam becomes compressed and loses rebound properties over time and use, whereas memory foam maintains its cushioning characteristics throughout extended crawling sessions. This means consistent performance whether you're on your first run of the day or your tenth. The all-terrain tread compound has been engineered to grip across multiple surface types without requiring specific terrain setup, making these tyres ideal for UK basher communities where terrain can vary significantly between different crawling locations. The tyre sidewalls are proportioned to allow flex and articulation without rolling off the bead during extreme lean angles, a critical consideration for rock crawling where chassis flex and suspension movement reach extremes unknown in racing disciplines.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these FTX 2.2 inch tyres suitable for beginners and experienced crawlers alike? — Yes, absolutely. The memory foam insert technology and all-terrain tread pattern make these tyres accessible for someone just starting with rock crawling, whilst the consistent performance characteristics and sophisticated insert design appeal to experienced crawlers who understand how tyre selection impacts overall vehicle performance.
• What FTX models are these tyres compatible with? — These tyres are listed as compatible with the FTX Kanyon 4x4 Mountain Rescue 2-Speed RTR, the FTX Kanyon 4x4 RTR, the FTX Mauler 2.0 4x4 Rock Crawler in both Yellow and Red variants, and other FTX 1/10 crawlers sharing the same wheel mounting specifications. If you're unsure whether they fit your specific model, please contact RC Model Shop and our team can confirm compatibility.
• How do memory foam inserts compare to traditional foam inserts? — Memory foam technology offers superior shock absorption and maintains its physical properties longer throughout use. Traditional foam inserts compress over time and lose effectiveness, whilst memory foam rebounds consistently session after session, maintaining predictable tyre feel and chassis feedback. This longevity justifies the investment in these premium tyres.
• Can I use these tyres on both front and rear axles? — Yes, these all-terrain tyres are specifically designed as front and rear compatible, so you can configure them according to your preferences, terrain conditions, and wear rotation strategy.
• Are these genuine FTX products? — Yes, these are authentic FTX engineering products supplied through authorised UK retailers. When purchasing from RC Model Shop, you can be confident you're receiving genuine FTX products with full manufacturer support and warranty coverage.
