Overview

The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.9" Baja MTZ Scale Tyres (Z-T0061) represent a pinnacle of scale authenticity for RC enthusiasts across the UK who demand realistic appearance without compromising on performance. Officially licensed by the legendary Mickey Thompson Performance Tires and Wheels brand, these 1.9-inch scale tyres deliver exceptional detail that transforms the visual presence of any compatible RC crawler, trail truck, or scale build. Whether you're a seasoned RC hobbyist in the UK looking to upgrade your existing setup or someone discovering the world of RC cars for the first time, these tyres offer the perfect balance of scale accuracy and proven performance.

In collaboration with Mickey Thompson, RC4WD has engineered these Baja MTZ tyres to showcase detail that exceeds what the company has previously achieved in scale tyre design. The partnership brings authentic off-road tyre styling directly to your RC model, creating a visual impact that impresses both casual observers and dedicated RC enthusiasts. These tyres are specifically engineered for trail builds and scale-focused applications where the aesthetic appeal of your RC vehicle is just as important as its capability.

Supplied as a pair with foam inserts and an exclusive Mickey Thompson sticker sheet, this product delivers everything needed to enhance your 1.9-inch wheeled RC vehicle. The tyres are moulded in RC4WD's advanced X2 SS (Super Soft and Super Sticky) compound, which provides the grip and handling characteristics that make these tyres suitable for a wide range of 1.9-class scale and trail builds across the UK RC market.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.9" Baja MTZ Scale Tyres have been engineered with meticulous attention to both performance and visual authenticity. With an outer diameter of 4.19 inches (106.4 millimetres) and a width of 1.28 inches (32.6 millimetres), these tyres fit the standard 1.9-inch inner diameter specification, making them compatible with a broad range of 1.9-class RC vehicles available in the UK market. The advanced X2 SS compound represents RC4WD's latest formulation technology, combining super soft rubber compounds with super sticky surface characteristics to maximise traction across diverse terrain types. This compound engineering ensures that the tyres maintain grip during acceleration, cornering, and braking whilst resisting premature wear under typical RC trail and scale driving conditions. The relatively lightweight specification of 2.05 ounces per tyre contributes to responsive vehicle handling without adding undue stress to suspension components or drivetrain systems. The foam inserts included with each pair are specifically engineered to work in conjunction with the tyre construction, providing the proper support structure that maintains tyre shape under load and during cornering manoeuvres. RC4WD has designed these tyres as an integrated system with their wheel range, meaning fitment tolerances and performance characteristics have been optimised when used with genuine RC4WD wheels, though verified compatibility exists with selected third-party platforms such as the Gmade Sawback.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these tyres suitable for beginners building their first RC scale crawler? — Yes, these Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tyres are excellent for beginners interested in scale aesthetics. They come ready to mount on compatible RC4WD wheels with foam inserts included, requiring no additional technical knowledge to install. The proven soft compound provides forgiving grip characteristics that help new RC enthusiasts develop smooth driving technique whilst enjoying the visual rewards of an authentically detailed build.
• What vehicles are these RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.9 inch tyres compatible with? — These tyres fit any RC vehicle using standard 1.9-inch wheel diameter specifications. RC4WD confirms optimal compatibility with their own wheel range, and the tyres have been verified to fit the popular Gmade Sawback platform. Whilst fitment with other brand wheels may be possible due to the standardised 1.9-inch specification, RC4WD cannot guarantee performance with third-party wheels due to varying design methodologies across manufacturers.
• Do I need to buy anything else to use these tyres? — These tyres come as a complete pair with foam inserts included, so you don't need to purchase inserts separately. You will need compatible 1.9-inch wheels from either RC4WD or verified compatible brands. Your existing RC vehicle will need these wheels already fitted, or you can purchase them separately to complete your build.
• How do the Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tyres compare to standard RC4WD tyre options? — The Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ represents RC4WD's premium scale-focused tyre offering, with enhanced detail and the prestige of official Mickey Thompson licensing. If you prioritise authentic off-road aesthetics and scale appearance for trail driving, these tyres deliver superior visual impact compared to more basic RC4WD tyre options. The advanced X2 SS compound is shared with their performance tyre range, ensuring you don't sacrifice grip for appearance.
• What terrain can I use these scale tyres on? — The super soft and super sticky X2 SS compound is engineered for versatile terrain performance, making these tyres suitable for gravel, dirt, sand, and light rocky surfaces typical of scale trail courses. They're not specifically designed for asphalt or concrete driving, and performance on wet surfaces will vary depending on grip and terrain conditions. These tyres are optimised for off-road scale driving where authentic appearance is a priority.
• Are the foam inserts removable or replaceable? — The foam inserts are included with these tyres and are designed as part of the integrated system. Whilst inserts can technically be removed or replaced, RC4WD engineered them specifically to work with this tyre design, so replacement with genuine RC4WD inserts is recommended if you need to service them after extended use.
