Key Features

• Advanced X2S³ Rubber Compound — RC4WD's proprietary X2S³ compound is engineered to deliver superior grip characteristics across multiple terrain types, ensuring your scale crawler maintains traction whether you are navigating rocky crawling courses or muddy terrain, which is precisely why the tyre line carries the "Mud Slinger" designation.
• Precisely Sized for 1.0" Wheels — With an outer diameter of 2.40 inches (61.0mm) and width of 0.82 inches (20.9mm), these tyres are engineered specifically for 1.0-inch wheel setups, ensuring perfect fitment and proportional scaling for authentic-looking scale builds.
• Matched Pair with Foam Inserts Included — You receive two complete tyres with matching foam inserts already included, eliminating the need to source these components separately and ensuring your scale build has all the parts needed for installation.
• Lightweight Construction — Each tyre weighs only 0.48 ounces (13.8 grams), contributing to optimal weight distribution and handling characteristics that will not compromise the scale appearance or performance of your 1.0-inch wheel setup.
• Designed for Scale Authenticity — The Mud Slinger profile and tread pattern are engineered to replicate genuine off-road tyre characteristics in miniature form, delivering visual authenticity that serious scale RC enthusiasts demand in their builds.
• RC4WD Engineered Compatibility — RC4WD tyres and wheels are designed to work together as a complete system; these Mud Slinger tyres are optimised for use with RC4WD's 1.0-inch wheel ranges, though compatibility with certain other brand wheels may be possible in some cases.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD Mud Slinger 1.0" tyres are engineered with meticulous attention to scale accuracy and real-world performance characteristics. The advanced X2S³ rubber compound represents RC4WD's latest development in tyre technology, offering a balanced approach to grip, durability, and wear characteristics that will serve you well across extended crawling sessions. With an inner diameter of 0.95 inches (24.2mm), these tyres mount securely onto 1.0-inch wheels while the 2.40-inch outer diameter maintains proper scaling proportions that will look authentic when mounted on RC4WD's scale wheel offerings such as the Competition Beadlock wheels (Z-W0278). The relatively low individual tyre weight of 13.8 grams ensures that your scale crawler maintains responsive handling without excessive unsprung mass, which is critical when building vehicles designed for technical terrain navigation. The foam inserts included with each pair are specifically matched to these tyres, providing the correct support structure and compliance characteristics that the X2S³ compound was engineered to work with. Whether you are building a hardcore scale crawler for competition use or constructing a display-quality build that will also see occasional gentle running, the Mud Slinger tyres deliver the engineering quality that RC4WD is recognised for throughout the UK RC community.

Important Information About Fitment

• Wheel Compatibility — These tyres are designed to fit 1.0" wheels exclusively; attempting to mount them on different wheel sizes will result in improper fitment and poor performance.
• Complete Vehicle Requirement — For a complete RC crawler or truck, you will need two sets of this product (four tyres total), as this package contains only one pair.
• RC4WD Ecosystem — Whilst RC4WD tyres are engineered to work seamlessly with RC4WD wheels, due to the many different methods manufacturers use to design tyres and wheels, compatibility with third-party brand wheels cannot be guaranteed, though in some cases fitment may be possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What are the Mud Slinger 1.0" tyres best suited for? — The Mud Slinger 1.0" tyres are specifically engineered for scale RC crawlers and trucks that use 1.0-inch wheel setups. They are ideal for scale enthusiasts who want authentic-looking tyres with genuine grip characteristics for technical terrain navigation. If you are building a scale RC crawler in the UK and need reliable replacement tyres or are upgrading from original equipment, the Mud Slinger range is an excellent choice backed by RC4WD's reputation for quality.
• Will these tyres fit my existing wheels? — These Mud Slinger 1.0" tyres are designed specifically for 1.0-inch wheels and will not fit other sizes. RC4WD tyres are engineered to work together with RC4WD wheels; if you have RC4WD 1.0-inch wheels, fitment is assured. If you use wheels from other manufacturers, compatibility cannot be guaranteed, though in some cases fitment may be possible. We recommend verifying your wheel size before ordering.
• What is the X2S³ compound and why does it matter? — The advanced X2S³ is RC4WD's proprietary rubber compound engineered to deliver superior grip characteristics across multiple terrain types whilst maintaining durability and wear resistance. This compound is the result of RC4WD's extensive experience in scale RC engineering and is specifically formulated to work with the foam inserts included with these tyres, providing optimal performance across rocky crawling courses, muddy terrain, and mixed conditions.
• How many tyres do I need for my scale crawler? — A complete RC crawler or truck requires four tyres (two pairs). This product contains one pair (two tyres), so you will need to purchase two sets of the Z-T0199 to fully equip a vehicle. Each pair comes with foam inserts, so you will have everything needed for installation.
• Are foam inserts included? — Yes, absolutely. Each pair of Mud Slinger 1.0" tyres comes with two foam inserts that are specifically matched to these tyres. The foam provides the correct support structure and compliance that works with the X2S³ compound, so no separate component purchasing is required.
• What is the weight of each tyre? — Each Mud Slinger 1.0" tyre weighs 0.48 ounces (13.8 grams), making them lightweight enough to maintain responsive handling without adding significant unsprung mass to your scale crawler.
• Can I use these tyres on non-RC4WD wheels? — Whilst RC4WD tyres are optimised to work with RC4WD wheels, in some cases they may work with wheels from other manufacturers, but RC4WD cannot guarantee fitment or performance when used with third-party wheels. We recommend using these tyres with RC4WD 1.0-inch wheels for assured compatibility and optimal performance.
