Overview

The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.9" Baja Claw 4.19" Scale Tyres represent a premium choice for serious RC rock crawlers and scale enthusiasts across the UK. These officially licensed Mickey Thompson Performance Tires and Wheels tyres are exclusively available from RC4WD, making them a unique addition to your RC car collection. Whether you're running a 1/10 scale crawler on challenging terrain or building a highly detailed scale replica, these tyres deliver authentic appearance combined with genuine off-road performance. The Baja Claw design is instantly recognisable from the full-size Mickey Thompson tyre range, and these 1.9" scale versions capture that iconic look perfectly.

What sets these tyres apart is the combination of official licensing and RC4WD's proven track record in scale RC products. These are not generic tyres with a decal applied—they are purpose-engineered scale replicas that respect the original design while optimising for 1/10 RC use. Buyers searching for authentic "RC car tyres UK" or looking to upgrade their ready to run RC crawler will find these deliver both the visual authenticity demanded by serious hobbyists and the practical traction needed for genuine off-road performance. The advanced X2 soft and sticky compound means these tyres bite into loose surfaces, providing real grip when you need it most on rock gardens, gravel tracks, or muddy terrain.

Each package includes two complete tyres, foam inserts for added support and cushioning, and a Mickey Thompson decal sheet to apply finishing touches to your scale build. The attention to detail extends beyond the tread pattern—the sidewall design, tyre profile, and overall aesthetics have all been crafted to match the proportions of their full-size counterparts. If you're building a serious 1/10 scale RC crawler or upgrading an existing truck with fresh rubber, these Mickey Thompson Baja Claw tyres represent the gold standard in licensed scale tyre design.

Key Features

• Officially Licensed Mickey Thompson Design — These tyres are not knockoffs or generic alternatives; they are officially licensed by Mickey Thompson Performance Tires and Wheels and available exclusively from RC4WD, ensuring you have an authentic product that respects the original brand heritage and design integrity.
• Advanced X2 Soft and Sticky Compound — The proprietary X2 compound used in these tyres provides superior grip and traction on loose surfaces including gravel, dirt, and muddy terrain, making them ideal for genuine off-road RC driving rather than smooth surfaces.
• Perfectly Scaled 1.9" Wheel Fitment — These tyres are designed specifically for 1.9" wheels, fitting models including the Gmade Sawback and matching perfectly with RC4WD's own wheel range, ensuring compatibility without guesswork.
• Includes Foam Inserts — Two foam inserts are provided with each pair of tyres, offering additional cushioning and support that helps reduce shock impact during rough terrain driving and extends tyre life by distributing stress more evenly.
• Authentic Baja Claw Tread Pattern — The tread design faithfully reproduces the aggressive lug pattern of the real Mickey Thompson Baja Claw tyre, providing both visual authenticity for scale builds and improved off-road performance through enhanced edge grip and mud evacuation.
• Premium Scale Construction — Unlike budget tyre alternatives, these are engineered with proper sidewall thickness, tread depth, and structural integrity to handle the demands of serious RC crawling while maintaining accurate scale proportions.
• Mickey Thompson Decal Sheet Included — A full decal sheet is provided, allowing you to add authentic Mickey Thompson branding and finishing details to your build, elevating the scale realism of your entire RC vehicle.

Technical Performance

The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.9" Baja Claw 4.19" tyres are engineered using premium materials and proven RC4WD technology. The outer diameter of 105.8mm (4.18") is precisely calibrated to deliver the correct ground clearance and scale proportions for 1/10 vehicles, whilst the 40.4mm (1.58") width provides substantial contact patch for traction without excessive drag. The inner diameter of 48mm (1.9") matches the 1.9" wheel standard, ensuring secure fitment without modifications. Individual tyres weigh 61 grams (2.15oz), a critical specification for builders concerned with centre of gravity and overall vehicle dynamics. The advanced X2 soft and sticky compound is the same proven formulation used across RC4WD's entire tyre range, offering consistent performance across multiple terrain types and conditions. The foam inserts provide critical support, preventing tyre collapse during high-stress cornering and over obstacles, which is essential when running aggressive crawling lines over rocks and uneven ground. These tyres have been tested extensively with RC4WD's complete vehicle range and are confirmed to work with the Gmade Sawback platform, though as with all aftermarket tyres, fitment compatibility should be verified before purchase due to manufacturing variations between different wheel designers. The tread depth and compound formulation provide excellent bite in loose terrain whilst maintaining durability through repeated use, making them suitable for weekend recreational driving or more intensive trail sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will these tyres fit my RC car UK? — These tyres are designed for 1.9" wheels and will fit any RC vehicle using that wheel size standard. Fitment has been confirmed with the Gmade Sawback and works well with RC4WD wheels, though due to different design methodologies between manufacturers, we cannot guarantee compatibility with third-party wheels from other brands without prior verification. Contact our team for specific fitment advice.
• What is the difference between the Baja Claw and other RC4WD scale tyres? — The Baja Claw features the distinctive aggressive lug pattern and sidewall design of the original Mickey Thompson Baja Claw full-size tyre. The advanced X2 compound offers excellent grip on loose terrain. RC4WD also offers other licensed alternatives including the Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ, BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T/A KM3, Dick Cepek options, and Atturo Trail Blade X/T, each with different tread patterns optimised for specific terrain types. The Baja Claw is particularly effective on mixed terrain including gravel, rocks, and loose dirt.
• How do the foam inserts work and why are they needed? — The foam inserts sit inside the tyre and provide structural support, preventing the tyre from collapsing sideways during aggressive cornering or when climbing over obstacles. This is critical in rock crawling applications where tyres must maintain their shape whilst navigating steep angles and uneven surfaces. The inserts also help cushion impacts, reducing shock transmission to the vehicle chassis and extending overall tyre life.
• Are these good for beginners or only advanced RC crawlers? — These tyres are suitable for both beginners and experienced RC enthusiasts. Beginners building their first scale crawler will benefit from the authentic appearance and proven grip characteristics, whilst advanced drivers will appreciate the premium compound and licensed design. They work equally well on ready to run RC crawler kits or custom builds.
• Can I use these on road surfaces? — These are purpose-designed off-road tyres with an aggressive tread pattern optimised for loose terrain. Whilst they will technically function on tarmac, they are not designed for road use and will wear more quickly on hard surfaces. For best results and longest tyre life, use these on dirt, gravel, rocks, and other natural terrain.
• How do I apply the Mickey Thompson decals? — The decal sheet is provided for hand application to add authentic branding and finishing details to your build. Decals should be applied to clean, dry surfaces following standard RC model decal application techniques. Allow adhesive to cure fully before handling.
• What terrain performs best with these tyres? — The Baja Claw tread design excels on mixed terrain including rocky ground, gravel, loose dirt, and muddy surfaces where the aggressive lugs can bite and evacuate material. They perform well across most off-road applications and are particularly effective for scale trail driving where authenticity and traction are both important.
