Key Features
- Soft Compound Rubber — The soft racing compound provides maximum grip and traction, allowing your RC truck to maintain speed through corners and over challenging terrain with significantly improved handling response compared to standard medium-compound tyres.
- 1/2 Inch Wheel Offset — This offset geometry is specifically designed for stadium trucks and short course race vehicles, optimising the suspension geometry and weight distribution for balanced handling characteristics across all surface types.
- 12mm Hex Fitment — Compatible with the standard 12mm hex hubs found on most Traxxas 2WD vehicles including the GP Jato, Stampede and Rustler, ensuring a secure and reliable connection to your vehicle.
- Pre-Glued and Ready to Install — These tyres arrive glued to the wheels with foam inserts already installed, eliminating the need for separate tyre gluing, balancing or insert installation, getting you on the track faster.
- 103.2mm Tyre Diameter — This diameter specification is precisely matched to stadium truck requirements, providing the correct rolling circumference for accurate speedometer readings and optimal suspension performance.
- 52.0mm Tyre Width — The width dimension contributes to the tyre's overall contact patch and cornering stability, designed specifically for the demands of stadium truck racing where lateral grip is critical.
- Includes Foam Inserts — Integrated foam inserts provide structural support and absorb impacts, extending tyre life and improving ride quality across bumpy terrain and high-speed passages.
Technical Performance
The Louise RC ST-Rock series represents a significant engineering achievement in 1/10 scale tyre design. The soft compound rubber offers noticeably better grip than harder medium compounds, particularly valuable when racing on dirt, asphalt or mixed terrain where traction is the limiting factor in lap times. The 103.2mm overall tyre diameter combined with the 52.0mm width creates an optimised contact patch that balances straight-line speed with cornering grip. The glued construction with integrated foam inserts means there's zero risk of tyre slip on the hex hub, and the foam provides consistent dampening characteristics throughout your driving session. Louise RC's manufacturing quality ensures consistent tyre-to-tyre performance across the set, critical for competitive drivers who demand predictable handling lap after lap. These tyres are compatible with a comprehensive range of vehicles including the Traxxas GP Jato 2WD R, GP Stampede 2WD R, GP Rustler 2WD R, EP Stampede 2WD FR, EP Rustler 2WD FR, EP Stampede 4WD FR/R, EP Monster Jam 2WD FR, and the Savage XS Flux FR/RTR. The black colour option provides a classic, professional appearance while remaining practical for racing environments where tyre identification is important.

- What is the difference between soft and medium compound tyres? — Soft compound tyres like the ST-Rock provide significantly better grip and traction, particularly valuable on dirt, loose surfaces and in cool ambient temperatures. Medium compounds offer slightly longer tyre life and perform better on harder tracks. For most UK RC enthusiasts, soft compounds deliver better handling and faster lap times unless you're running extended bashing sessions where tyre wear is a concern.
- Do these tyres come glued and ready to use? — Yes, the ST-Rock tyres arrive pre-glued to the wheels with foam inserts already installed. This means you simply remove them from the packaging and bolt them onto your 12mm hex hubs — no additional assembly, gluing or balancing is required, saving you significant preparation time.
- What diameter and width are the ST-Rock 1/10 tyres? — The ST-Rock tyres measure 103.2mm in overall diameter and 52.0mm in width. These dimensions are optimised for 1/10 scale stadium trucks and short course race vehicles, providing the correct rolling circumference and contact patch for balanced handling and accurate speedometer calibration.
