Key Features

• Soft Racing Compound — Louise RC's soft rubber formula is engineered to provide maximum grip and faster heat buildup for optimal performance on competition and recreational tracks. The compound is specially developed to balance grip, wear characteristics and durability under the extreme forces generated during cornering, acceleration and high-impact landings.
• Pre-Mounted and Glued — The tyres arrive fully bonded to the wheels using Louise RC's proprietary cyanoacrylate adhesive system, eliminating the need for messy mounting and ensuring a perfect, permanent bond that withstands extreme forces and high-speed driving conditions.
• Premium Foam Inserts — Each tyre includes precision-cut foam inserts selected for optimal density and size, providing superior dampening and form stability to ensure your RC car maintains predictable handling through corners and over obstacles.
• High-Quality Nylon Composite Wheels — The wheels are manufactured from a specially developed mixture of high-quality nylon granulates reinforced with fibre, creating a perfect balance of flexibility and strength to handle the extreme loads generated during cornering, acceleration and jumping.
• Professional Manufacturing Standards — Louise RC employs a rigorous multi-stage bonding process that includes surface grinding, degreasing, precision adhesive application and mechanical pressing, followed by spinning and pulling tests on every tyre to guarantee perfect bonding.
• 1/10 Short Course Compatibility — The 12mm hex adapter fits most 1/10 short course vehicles, including Traxxas Slash 2WD, Slash 4WD, Traxxas Telluride, Traxxas Rally, HPI Blitz, Kyosho Ultima SC and numerous other manufacturers' models.
• Proven Track Record — Louise RC is recognised across the global RC hobby as one of the industry's leading tyre manufacturers, trusted by serious drivers and competitive racers who demand uncompromising quality.

Technical Performance

These Louise RC SC-ROCK tyres represent the pinnacle of 1/10 short course tyre technology. The soft compound rubber is engineered for drivers who demand maximum grip and responsive handling characteristics. Each tyre measures 109mm in diameter with a 43mm contact width, optimised for the geometry and performance requirements of modern 1/10 short course vehicles. The complete wheel and tyre assembly weighs just 105 grams per unit, ensuring minimal unsprung weight that translates to improved suspension performance and handling precision. The wheels feature a 2.2-inch or 3.0-inch bead diameter (56mm or 76mm), designed specifically for the Slash 2WD and 4WD rear fitment with the correct offset geometry. Louise RC's commitment to manufacturing excellence is evident in every detail – from the surface preparation of both the wheel and tyre before bonding, to the precision dosing of adhesive applied by machine to guarantee consistency, to the mechanical pressing and curing period that ensures a bond strong enough to withstand extreme cornering forces, high-speed acceleration and repeated heavy landings from jumps. Every completed tyre undergoes spinning and pulling tests to verify the bond integrity before shipping. The foam inserts are manufactured to specific tolerances and densities, providing the perfect balance of compliance and support to maintain tyre shape and deliver consistent performance lap after lap. For best results, Louise RC recommends running a few warm-up laps to bring the soft compound tyres up to operating temperature, at which point they deliver maximum grip and predictable handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these tyres suitable for a Traxxas Slash 4WD? — Yes, these Louise RC SC-ROCK tyres are specifically listed as compatible with Traxxas Slash 4WD vehicles for both front and rear fitment. They're also compatible with Slash 2WD models (rear only), making them a versatile choice for multiple Traxxas short course platforms.
• Do I need to glue the tyres to the wheels myself? — No, these tyres arrive fully mounted and permanently glued to the wheels using Louise RC's professional-grade cyanoacrylate adhesive system. Simply install them on your vehicle using the 12mm hex adapter – no additional preparation is required.
• What does soft compound mean and is it right for my driving style? — Louise RC's soft compound provides maximum grip and builds heat faster for improved performance, making it ideal for competitive racing and serious hobby driving on prepared tracks. If you primarily bash on rough terrain or need maximum durability over sustained high-speed driving, you might consider Louise RC's softer compound options, though the SC-ROCK soft formula is highly durable for the grip level provided.
• How long do these tyres last? — Tyre lifespan depends heavily on driving style, track surface and maintenance. The soft compound will wear faster than harder compounds when driven at speed on abrasive surfaces, but the grip advantage often makes this trade-off worthwhile for competitive drivers. Rotating tyres between vehicles and allowing them to cool between sessions helps extend usable life.
• What hex size do I need? — These tyres feature a 12mm hex adapter, which is the standard fitment for most 1/10 short course vehicles. Always verify your vehicle's hex specification before purchasing using Louise RC's detailed compatibility chart.
• Can I use these on a 2WD vehicle? — Yes, these tyres are compatible with Traxxas Slash 2WD as rear tyres. Check the detailed compatibility chart to verify fitment for your specific vehicle model.
• What is the tyre diameter and width? — The SC-ROCK tyres measure 109mm in diameter with a 43mm contact width, optimised for 1/10 short course vehicle geometry and performance.
• Why are these tyres pre-mounted and glued? — Pre-mounted tyres eliminate the hassle of DIY mounting and guarantee a professional-quality bond that withstands extreme forces. Louise RC uses a proprietary multi-stage bonding process that includes surface preparation, precision adhesive application by machine and mechanical pressing, followed by individual testing of every tyre to verify bond strength.
