Key Features

• Pre-Mounted and Glued Tyres — These tyres arrive fully mounted on the wheels and bonded with professional-grade adhesive, meaning you can install them on your RC car immediately without the hassle of mounting and gluing yourself. Louise RC uses a specially developed rubber cyanoacrylate glue applied by precision dosing machines, ensuring every tyre receives an identical amount of adhesive and perfect curing through mechanical pressing, followed by spinning and pulling tests to guarantee reliability.
• Soft Racing Compound — The tyres are manufactured from a special rubber compound specifically formulated for racing applications where grip is paramount. The soft compound builds up grip as it reaches operating temperature, meaning you should run a few warm-up laps before pushing hard to achieve peak performance. This compound balances exceptional grip levels with controlled wear characteristics for competitive racing.
• Removable 1/10 SC Hex System with Multiple Adapters — Rather than being fixed to a single hex size, this set includes 5 different pairs of removable hex adapters in 12mm, 14mm and 17mm sizes, each mounted with 5 golden screws. This versatility means you can easily adapt these tyres to fit virtually any 1/10 short course truck, making them a genuinely universal solution for your RC collection.
• Dupont-Engineered Nylon Composite Wheels — The wheels are crafted from high-quality nylon granulates charged with fibre, using composites specially developed by Dupont specifically for Louise RC. This engineered material provides the perfect balance of flexibility and strength, allowing the wheels to absorb the tremendous forces generated during cornering, acceleration and landing from jumps whilst maintaining structural integrity.
• Optimised Foam Inserts for Dampening and Stability — The tyres use cut-to-size foam inserts selected for specific density to guarantee perfect dampening characteristics and maintain tyre form stability during aggressive driving. These inserts work in harmony with the tyre compound to deliver predictable handling and protect the wheel rims from impact damage.
• Comprehensive Compatibility — These tyres fit most major 1/10 short course platforms including Traxxas Slash 2WD front, Traxxas Slash 4WD front and rear, Traxxas Ford Raptor 2WD front, Traxxas Telluride front and rear, Traxxas Rally front and rear, ARRMA Senton front and rear, Associated SC8, Associated SC8E, Associated Nomad, Associated SC10 4X4 front and rear, Kyosho Ultima SC, Losi SCTE front and rear, HPI Blitz, and Hong Nor SCRT10 front and rear.
• Professional Production Standards — Louise RC maintains rigorous quality control throughout production, including grinding and degreasing of both tyre rings and wheel surfaces before gluing, precise application of adhesive via calibrated dosing machines, controlled pressing time for perfect curing, and final spinning and pulling tests on every single tyre-wheel assembly to verify perfect bonding strength.

Technical Performance

The Louise RC SC-ROCK tyre set represents cutting-edge engineering for 1/10 scale short course racing. With a tyre diameter of 112mm and width of 43mm, these tyres provide the contact patch and sidewall characteristics optimised for short course truck performance. Each complete tyre and wheel assembly weighs 105 grams, contributing to the overall balance and handling characteristics of your RC vehicle. The wheels feature a rim bead diameter of 2.2" and 3.0" (56mm and 76mm), suitable for the wide range of short course platforms they're designed for. The black nylon composite rims are manufactured to be glued directly to your vehicle, though the removable hex adapters allow them to work with virtually any mounting system. The soft racing compound has been extensively tested and refined to deliver maximum grip when the tyres reach optimal operating temperature, making warm-up laps essential for achieving peak performance. Louise RC's professional-grade manufacturing process, including precision gluing with specially formulated cyanoacrylate adhesive and mandatory quality testing of every unit, ensures these tyres will deliver consistent, predictable performance through competitive racing seasons and challenging off-road conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which RC short course trucks are these tyres compatible with? — These Louise RC SC-ROCK tyres fit most major 1/10 short course trucks including Traxxas Slash (2WD and 4WD in various configurations), ARRMA Senton, Associated SC8, SC8E, Nomad, SC10 4X4, Kyosho Ultima SC, Losi SCTE, HPI Blitz, Traxxas Ford Raptor 2WD, Traxxas Telluride and Traxxas Rally. The multiple removable hex adapters (12mm, 14mm and 17mm) provide flexibility across different wheel mounting systems. Louise RC provides a comprehensive car compatibility chart to verify exact fitment for your specific model.
• Are these tyres suitable for a beginner or novice RC driver? — While these are racing-grade tyres suitable for competitive use, they can certainly be used by recreational drivers and enthusiasts of all skill levels. The soft compound does require some warm-up laps to reach optimal grip, so you should plan to do several laps at moderate pace before pushing the vehicle hard. If you're new to RC short course trucks, these represent professional-quality components that will serve you well as your skills develop.
• Do I need to glue or mount these tyres myself? — No, one of the major advantages of this product is that the tyres arrive fully mounted and professionally glued to the wheels, ready to install on your RC car. Louise RC handles the time-consuming and skilled task of mounting and bonding using their precision equipment and specially formulated adhesive, saving you considerable effort and ensuring perfect results.
• What does the soft compound mean and why should I care? — The soft compound is a specially formulated rubber designed for maximum grip in racing conditions. Soft tyres provide more grip than medium or hard compounds, which is essential for competitive racing where every fraction of grip can determine performance. The trade-off is slightly faster wear compared to harder compounds, but for serious short course racing, the grip advantage is worth it. These soft tyres build up grip as they reach operating temperature, so you must run warm-up laps before pushing hard for best performance.
• Can I replace just the tyres without buying new wheels? — This product comes as a complete tyre and wheel assembly that is fully bonded together. Louise RC takes great care in the mounting and gluing process to ensure permanent, reliable bonding capable of withstanding extreme racing forces. If you need to replace worn tyres in the future, you would need to purchase a new complete set or explore Louise RC's other products that may offer different mounting options.
• How do the removable hex adapters work? — The set includes 5 different pairs of removable hex adapters in three sizes: 12mm, 14mm and 17mm. Each adapter pair comes with 5 golden mounting screws. You simply select the correct hex size for your vehicle's wheel mounting system, position the hex adapters on the wheel, and secure them with the golden screws. This allows the same tyres and wheels to be compatible with multiple different RC vehicle platforms.
• What makes Louise RC wheels special compared to other manufacturers? — Louise RC wheels are manufactured from high-quality nylon composite materials specially developed by Dupont. The compound is selected and engineered specifically for Louise RC to provide the ideal balance of flexibility and strength. This allows the wheels to withstand the extreme forces generated during driving, cornering and high jumps while maintaining structural integrity and predictable performance. Louise RC is recognised in the RC industry as one of the best manufacturers of wheels and tyres, with a reputation built on meticulous attention to detail and quality.
• Why does Louise RC grind and degrease the tyres before gluing? — This critical step in Louise RC's production process ensures perfect adhesion between the tyre and wheel. By grinding the contact surfaces and removing any residue or contaminants through degreasing, Louise RC creates an ideal surface for the cyanoacrylate adhesive to bond with. Combined with precision dosing of the specially developed glue and controlled pressing during curing, this multi-step process ensures every tyre achieves permanent, reliable bonding that can handle racing forces. Each tyre then passes spinning and pulling tests to verify the bond is perfect before leaving the factory.
