If you're serious about your RC crawler or want to add genuine scale credentials to your Trail Finder 2 or Gelande II, these tyres are a fantastic choice.
These ready-to-use scale tyres come complete with foam inserts for suspension tuning and an Interco decal sheet to add that final touch of authenticity. Whether you're building a competition-grade crawler, a weekend basher, or a display-quality scale replica, the INTERCO NARROW TSL SS represents excellent value and proven performance that's trusted by RC enthusiasts across the UK and beyond.
Key Features
- Official Interco Licence — These tyres are officially licensed from Interco, meaning you get authentic Super Swamper styling, branding, and design heritage. This isn't just about looks; it means the tread pattern and sidewall construction have been designed with real-world Interco engineering principles in mind, translating to genuine off-road capability and scale accuracy.
- Advanced X2S3 Rubber Compound — The proprietary X2S3 compound has been specifically formulated by RC4WD for superior grip and durability across varied terrain. This material performs exceptionally well on rocks, mud, and snow, giving you the confidence to push your crawler hard without worrying about premature wear or loss of traction.
- Narrow Profile Design — The 1.37-inch width is deliberately narrow, which is perfect for scale authenticity and for navigating tight gaps during technical rock crawling. This profile reduces rolling resistance and improves manoeuvrability in confined spaces, a critical advantage when tackling intricate trail courses.
- Included Foam Inserts — Each set comes with foam inserts that allow you to fine-tune your suspension compliance and traction characteristics. By adjusting insert firmness, you can tailor the tyres to your specific terrain and driving style without purchasing additional aftermarket components.
- Authentic Interco Decal Sheet — Included in the box is a professional-quality Interco decal sheet that adds genuine scale detail and branding to your tyres. These decals elevate the visual authenticity of your build and are particularly impressive on display or in photography.
- Optimised 1.55-Inch Wheel Compatibility — Designed exclusively for 1.55-inch wheels, these tyres provide a perfect fit and optimal performance with RC4WD's wheel range. While some fitment with other manufacturers' products may be possible, RC4WD recommends using their wheels for guaranteed performance and fitment quality.
- Proven Scale Crawler Heritage — These tyres come from Interco's renowned lineup and are recognised worldwide for their ability to handle rocks, mud, snow, and challenging off-road conditions. The tread pattern and sidewall construction reflect decades of real-world Interco engineering.
Technical Performance
The RC4WD INTERCO NARROW TSL SS 1.55" Scale Tyres deliver exceptional performance through a carefully engineered combination of materials, dimensions, and compound selection. Each tyre has an outer diameter of 3.74 inches (95.0mm) and a width of 1.37 inches (35.0mm), with an inner diameter of 1.55 inches (39.4mm) for perfect fitment on compatible wheels. The lightweight construction means each tyre weighs just 1.71 ounces (48.7g), helping to keep your crawler's unsprung weight minimal for better suspension articulation and response. This weight efficiency is particularly important for scale crawlers where every gram counts towards achieving realistic suspension behaviour and maintaining high ground clearance during technical manoeuvres. The advanced X2S3 compound provides superior grip initiation on rock surfaces whilst maintaining durability during extended crawling sessions, and the tread pattern has been engineered to self-clean in muddy conditions whilst maintaining traction when wet. The narrow profile reduces rolling resistance and improves steering precision, making these tyres ideal for technical trail courses and competitive crawling events. Whether you're running over sharp rocks that demand puncture resistance, through mud that requires positive grip, or across snow that challenges traction, these tyres deliver consistent performance that justifies their reputation in the RC crawler community across the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are the RC4WD INTERCO NARROW TSL SS 1.55" Scale Tyres suitable for beginners? — Yes, these tyres are excellent for beginners and experienced crawlers alike. The included foam inserts allow you to adjust the tyre performance to match your skill level and terrain type, making them forgiving enough for learning whilst offering enough performance for competitive use as your skills develop.
- What models will these 1.55-inch scale tyres fit? — These tyres are compatible with any RC4WD crawler or truck designed for 1.55-inch wheels. RC4WD specifically lists compatibility with the Trail Finder 2 RTR and LWB variants, Gelande II models, and the Marlin Crawler, among others. Always verify your specific model before purchasing, and note that compatibility with non-RC4WD wheels may vary.
- Why are foam inserts included, and how do I use them? — Foam inserts control how much your tyre sidewall flexes, which directly affects traction, articulation, and ride height. Firmer inserts provide more support and higher ride height, whilst softer or broken-in inserts increase flex for maximum traction in loose terrain. Experimenting with different insert options is a key tuning method in scale crawling.
- How many sets of tyres do I need for my crawler? — For a complete four-wheel setup, you will need two sets of these tyres (this product contains one set of two tyres). RC4WD recommends purchasing two sets to outfit your entire vehicle.
- Will these tyres fit wheels from other manufacturers? — RC4WD tyres are engineered to work perfectly with RC4WD wheels. While in some cases RC4WD tyres may work with other manufacturers' wheels, RC4WD cannot guarantee fitment or performance with non-RC4WD products due to variations in wheel design. For guaranteed fitment and performance, use RC4WD wheels.
- What makes the X2S3 compound special? — The X2S3 compound is a proprietary RC4WD rubber formula designed specifically for scale crawling. It offers excellent grip on rocks and in wet conditions whilst maintaining durability during extended use. The compound remains responsive across a wide temperature range, making these tyres suitable for year-round UK crawling.
- Are these tyres officially licensed? — Yes, these tyres are officially licensed from Interco Tire Company and carry authentic Interco branding. The design, tread pattern, and styling are directly inspired by Interco's legendary real-world tyres, giving you genuine scale authenticity alongside proven off-road engineering.
- What's included with the Interco decal sheet? — The decal sheet contains authentic Interco branding and graphics that allow you to add professional scale detailing to your tyres and body panels. These high-quality decals are typical of what you'd find on real Interco products and add significant scale credibility to your build.
