Technical Performance

The RC4WD Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ 1.0'' Scale Tyres deliver exceptional technical performance built on precision engineering and material science. Each tyre measures 2.20 inches (56mm) in outer diameter and 0.74 inches (19.0mm) in width, with an inner diameter of 0.95 inches (24.2mm), making them ideally proportioned for authentic scale representation on 1.0-inch wheels. The tyres are crafted from RC4WD's proprietary Advanced X2S³ compound, a specially formulated rubber mixture that balances grip, durability and performance across diverse driving conditions. Individual tyre weight is a featherlight 0.31 ounces (8.8g), ensuring minimal rotational mass while maintaining structural integrity during aggressive driving. The foam inserts included with each package are engineered to work in harmony with the tyre's compound and construction, providing internal support that maintains tyre shape under lateral forces and absorbs impacts. RC4WD's engineering ensures these tyres perform reliably across loose terrain, hardpack, gravel and mixed surfaces typical of RC car UK driving conditions. The aggressive Baja MTZ tread pattern provides multiple edges and sipes for enhanced grip in varying conditions, whilst the overall tyre design minimises unwanted vibration and promotes stable, predictable handling. These tyres are designed specifically for 1.0-inch wheels; RC4WD explicitly notes that whilst their tyres and wheels work excellently together, compatibility with other manufacturers' wheels cannot be guaranteed due to varying design methodologies across the industry.
