Overview

Introducing the RC4WD GOODYEAR WRANGLER MT/R 1.9" 4.7" Scale Tyres (Z-T0175), the ultimate choice for RC enthusiasts seeking authentic, officially licensed Goodyear performance in their scale crawler builds. These premium tyres bring the iconic Wrangler MT/R tread pattern to life with stunning realism and genuine grip, making them an essential upgrade for anyone serious about their RC car UK setup. Whether you're tackling rocky terrain, navigating technical trails, or simply want your RC crawler to look as impressive as it performs, these tyres deliver the professional aesthetics and functional performance that separates serious hobbyists from casual bashers.

Built exclusively by RC4WD with their advanced X2S³ compound technology, these 1.9" scale tyres are engineered to provide confident traction and a purposeful stance that transforms the appearance and handling of your 1/10 scale crawler. The officially licensed Goodyear Wrangler MT/R design isn't just about looks—it's about capturing the essence of real-world off-road tyre performance in miniature form. Each tyre features a realistic, aggressive tread pattern that mirrors the legendary Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tyres found on full-size vehicles, giving your RC model an authentic and professional appearance that will impress at the track, at home, or wherever your adventures take you.

These tyres represent the perfect marriage of form and function for RC crawlers, trail trucks, and scale rock crawling builds. The 4.70" outer diameter provides increased ground clearance compared to smaller alternatives, whilst the specially formulated X2S³ compound ensures that your RC vehicle maintains grip across a variety of terrain types. For RC enthusiasts in the UK looking to elevate their crawler's performance and appearance simultaneously, the RC4WD Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tyres are an investment in quality, authenticity, and genuine Goodyear heritage.

Key Features

• Officially Licensed Goodyear Design — These tyres carry the official Goodyear Wrangler MT/R licence, making them the only authentic scale reproduction of this legendary tyre available for RC crawlers, ensuring you're getting the real design, not an imitation.
• Advanced X2S³ Compound Technology — RC4WD's proprietary X2S³ compound formula delivers superior traction and realistic performance characteristics, meaning your crawler will grip better across rocky, muddy, and technical terrain whilst maintaining authentic scale appearance.
• 1.9" Wheel Compatibility — Specifically engineered to fit 1.9" wheels, these tyres integrate seamlessly with popular RC4WD beadlock wheels and other compatible 1.9" wheel systems, ensuring proper fitment and performance without compromise.
• 4.70" Scale Diameter — The generous 4.70 inch outer diameter provides increased ground clearance for your crawler, helping it clear obstacles, rocks, and rough terrain more effectively than smaller tyre options whilst maintaining proper scale proportions.
• Realistic Aggressive Tread Pattern — The scale-accurate Wrangler MT/R tread design features genuine-looking lugs and void patterns that not only enhance grip but also create an incredibly realistic appearance that elevates the overall aesthetic of your RC build.
• Foam Inserts Included — Each pair comes complete with foam inserts that provide the right amount of sidewall support and cushioning, essential for maintaining tyre shape during aggressive off-road driving and ensuring consistent performance over extended sessions.
• Goodyear Decal Sheet Included — The included authentic Goodyear decal sheet allows you to add even more realism to your build, letting you customise your crawler with official branding that matches the tyres perfectly.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD GOODYEAR WRANGLER MT/R 1.9" 4.7" Scale Tyres represent a significant step forward in scale tyre engineering and performance. The advanced X2S³ compound has been specifically formulated to balance realism with genuine functional grip, providing your RC crawler with the traction it needs whilst maintaining the authentic appearance that scale enthusiasts demand. Each tyre measures 4.70 inches in outer diameter with a width of 1.87 inches and an inner diameter of 1.89 inches, creating proportions that look absolutely correct when installed on 1.9" wheels. At 3.43 ounces per tyre (97.3 grams), the weight is kept reasonable to avoid excessive unsprung mass whilst maintaining the structural integrity needed for serious off-road work. The tread pattern is engineering-grade realistic, with properly proportioned lugs and void areas that genuinely enhance grip on loose, rocky, and technical surfaces. These specifications combine to create a tyre that performs authentically across the range of terrain your RC crawler will encounter, from smooth outdoor tracks to natural rocky environments, delivering the performance characteristics you'd expect from a scaled Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tyre in the RC world.

Compatibility and Installation

These tyres are specifically designed to fit 1.9" wheels only, and RC4WD guarantees perfect fitment with their own Ballistic Off Road Rage 1.9" Beadlock Wheels (Z-W0261). The tyres are confirmed compatible with several popular crawler platforms including the RC4WD Gelande II, Traxxas TRX-4 '79 Bronco Ranger XLT, and Traxxas TRX-4 Land Rover Defender. However, please note that whilst RC4WD tyres and wheels work excellently together due to the precision engineering of both products, fitment with non-RC4WD wheels cannot be guaranteed. This is simply due to the many different design methodologies used by various manufacturers—RC4WD cannot control the specifications of third-party products. For a complete truck setup, you will need two sets of these tyres (four tyres total), so consider ordering accordingly if you're building a fresh crawler from scratch or replacing an entire set. Installation is straightforward: simply insert the provided foam inserts into each tyre to provide the correct sidewall support, then mount onto your 1.9" wheels using your preferred mounting technique.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these RC4WD Goodyear tyres fit my non-RC4WD 1.9" wheels? — Whilst the RC4WD Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tyres are specifically sized for 1.9" wheels, fitment with non-RC4WD wheels cannot be guaranteed. RC4WD cannot control the design specifications of other manufacturers' wheels, and due to different manufacturing tolerances and design approaches, compatibility is not assured. We recommend pairing these tyres with RC4WD 1.9" wheels for guaranteed fitment and optimal performance.
• How many sets do I need for a complete crawler build? — For a complete four-wheel crawler setup, you will need two sets of these tyres (eight tyres total, as this is a two-tyre pack). Many builders keep spare sets on hand for replacement and rotation, so consider ordering accordingly based on your needs.
• Are these tyres suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. These tyres are perfect for beginners, intermediate builders, and advanced enthusiasts alike. They're straightforward to install onto compatible wheels, the foam inserts provide the right level of support for most driving styles, and the authentic grip characteristics mean you don't need to be an expert to enjoy their benefits. Whether you're just discovering RC crawlers for the first time or you're a seasoned competitor, these Goodyear-branded tyres will enhance your experience immediately.
• What makes the X2S³ compound different from standard RC tyres? — RC4WD's advanced X2S³ compound formula is specifically engineered to deliver superior traction across a variety of terrain types whilst maintaining the realistic appearance that scale enthusiasts value. The compound is formulated to grip loose, rocky, and muddy surfaces effectively, providing genuine functional performance improvement over basic tyre compounds, making your crawler more capable in real-world off-road conditions.
• Can I use these with the Traxxas TRX-4? — Yes, these tyres are confirmed compatible with the Traxxas TRX-4 '79 Bronco Ranger XLT and the Traxxas TRX-4 Land Rover Defender, as long as you pair them with compatible 1.9" wheels. Check that your wheel rims are genuine 1.9" beadlock design for the best fitment and performance results.
• What do the foam inserts do? — The foam inserts provide crucial sidewall support and cushioning for your tyres. They help maintain tyre shape during aggressive off-road driving, prevent the sidewalls from collapsing excessively under load, and ensure consistent performance over extended driving sessions. Proper foam inserts are essential for maximising tyre longevity and maintaining the handling characteristics your crawler was designed for.
• Are these genuine licensed Goodyear products? — Yes, these tyres are officially licensed by The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company from Akron, Ohio USA. The Goodyear name, wingfoot design, and Wrangler MT/R branding are all used under official licence by RC4WD, making these the only authentic scale Goodyear Wrangler MT/R tyres available for RC crawlers in the world.
