Fastrax 1:10 Crawler Swamper 1.9 Scale Wheel 118mm Tyre Black FAST1268B

Overview

The Fastrax 1:10 Crawler Swamper 1.9 Scale Wheel with ø118mm Tyre in black is an essential upgrade for any serious RC rock crawler enthusiast in the UK. These high-quality crawler wheels are specifically designed for scale trail running and extreme terrain navigation, offering the perfect balance of grip, durability and authentic scale appearance. Whether you're tackling rocky hillsides, muddy trails or challenging obstacle courses, these Swamper tyres deliver the performance and look that dedicated crawler pilots demand. Built to the exacting standards Fastrax is renowned for, this pair of 1.9-inch wheels represents a significant upgrade from standard RC car tyres and will transform how your crawler handles technical terrain.

Fastrax has established itself as a leader in the RC crawler accessories market, and these Swamper wheels exemplify why. The 1.9-inch scale is the industry standard for 1:10 rock crawlers, fitting perfectly on most leading platforms including Traxxas TRX-4 models, Carisma Scale Adventure vehicles, and the FTX Outback Hi-Rock. The aggressive tread pattern and substantial sidewall construction provide superior traction and articulation when navigating uneven surfaces, rocks, and obstacles. For weekend bashers, competitive trail runners and everyone in between, these wheels are a worthwhile investment that delivers genuine performance improvements on the trails.

Unlike generic RC car tyres, the Swamper design is purpose-built for rock crawling. The deep, widely-spaced lugs bite aggressively into loose terrain whilst maintaining contact patch where it matters most. The sidewall construction ensures the tyre flexes naturally over rocks and obstacles, reducing the chance of punctures and providing that authentic scale appearance that crawler enthusiasts appreciate. Combined with the robust wheel construction and 12mm hex fitting, these are tyres built to withstand real-world use on demanding terrain across the UK and beyond.

Key Features

• Aggressive Swamper Tread Pattern — The distinctive deep lugs provide exceptional grip on loose, rocky and muddy terrain whilst maintaining traction across a wide variety of surfaces, ensuring your crawler maintains contact in the most demanding trail conditions.
• 1.9-Inch Scale Size — The industry-standard 1:10 scale wheel diameter of 118mm fits the vast majority of modern rock crawlers including Traxxas TRX-4, Carisma Scale Adventure and FTX Outback models, making these a universally compatible upgrade.
• Robust Sidewall Construction — Thick, durable sidewalls flex naturally over obstacles and rocks, providing essential articulation whilst resisting punctures and damage from sharp terrain that would damage lesser tyres.
• 12mm Hex Mounting — Industry-standard 12mm hex fitting ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 1:10 scale RC crawlers without the need for adapters or modifications.
• Pair of Two Wheels — This package contains two complete wheels, allowing you to upgrade either a front and rear pairing or replace worn tyres on one axle with fresh, grippy rubber.
• Genuine Fastrax Quality — Built to exacting manufacturing standards by a trusted manufacturer with decades of experience in the RC hobby, these wheels are engineered for genuine performance, not cosmetics alone.
• Black Finish — The classic black tyre and wheel combination complements virtually any scale crawler bodywork, from realistic military vehicles to classic 4x4 trucks, providing authentic scale appearance.
• Front and Rear Fitting — These wheels are suitable for mounting on both front and rear axles, offering complete flexibility in your crawler setup and allowing you to tailor your gearing and performance.

Technical Performance

The Fastrax Swamper wheel and tyre combination represents a significant step up in crawler performance compared to standard RC car wheels. The 118mm diameter (1.9 inches in scale) provides the correct proportions for authentic 1:10 rock crawler representation whilst delivering practical performance benefits including improved ground clearance, better obstacle negotiation and enhanced traction through articulation. The tread pattern is meticulously designed with deep, aggressive lugs spaced to shed mud and debris whilst maintaining contact patch across uneven terrain. The tyre sidewall construction is substantially thicker than road-racing alternatives, providing crucial flex and compliance when articulating over rocks and obstacles — the hallmark of serious crawler performance. The 12mm hex connection is industry standard, ensuring seamless integration with virtually all modern 1:10 crawler platforms. The black finish is applied with Fastrax's typical attention to detail, resisting wear and UV fading through extended outdoor use. These are genuine performance components engineered for the technical demands of rock crawling, not casual driving. Whether running on dry rock, muddy trails or sandy terrain, the Swamper tread pattern and sidewall construction work together to provide the grip, articulation and durability that distinguish a quality crawler setup from a casual RC car.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels suitable for my Traxxas TRX-4 or other 1:10 crawler? — Yes, the 12mm hex mounting and 1.9-inch scale size make these wheels compatible with the vast majority of 1:10 rock crawlers on the UK market. The list of compatible models includes numerous Traxxas TRX-4 variants, Carisma Scale Adventure models, and the FTX Outback Hi-Rock. If your crawler uses 12mm hex wheels and is scaled at 1:10, these Swamper tyres will fit without modification.
• What makes Swamper tyres different from standard RC car tyres? — Swamper tyres are specifically engineered for rock crawling with aggressive, deep lug patterns designed to bite into loose terrain whilst thicker sidewalls provide crucial articulation over rocks and obstacles. Standard RC car tyres prioritise speed and on-road handling, making them unsuitable for serious trail work. The Swamper design trades top speed for genuine off-road traction and durability.
• Will these tyres improve my crawler's performance on rocky terrain? — Absolutely. The aggressive tread pattern and robust sidewall construction provide superior grip on loose rocks, mud and uneven surfaces compared to standard wheels. The flex in the sidewall allows the tyre to conform to terrain irregularities, maintaining contact patch across obstacles. Most crawler pilots report immediate and noticeable improvements in traction and articulation when upgrading to quality Swamper tyres like these.
• How many wheels are included in this package? — This package contains a pair of two wheels, allowing you to upgrade either front and rear positions or replace worn tyres on one axle. Many customers purchase multiple pairs to maintain a complete set of spare wheels for extended trail sessions.
• What is the wheel diameter in millimetres? — The wheel diameter is 118mm, which equates to 1.9 inches in scale. This is the industry standard for 1:10 rock crawlers and provides optimal ground clearance and obstacle negotiation for serious trail work.
• Are these wheels available in other colours? — These particular wheels are supplied in black finish. Fastrax manufactures wheels in various finishes to suit different crawler aesthetics, but the Swamper profile is most commonly seen in black for authentic scale appearance.
• Do I need to purchase anything else to fit these wheels? — The wheels come complete with tyres mounted and ready to fit. If your crawler already has 12mm hex axles, you simply remove your old wheels and install these new ones. No additional components are required for fitment.
