These officially licensed tyres bring the legendary Mickey Thompson Baja Claw heritage directly to your 1/10 scale RC rig, delivering the kind of performance and realism that separates genuine scale builders from casual bashers.

Built for RC scale enthusiasts who refuse to compromise on authenticity or performance, the Mickey Thompson Baja Claw TTC tyres represent a significant upgrade over standard RC car tyres.

Available exclusively through RC4WD and authorised dealers like RC Model Shop, these tyres are a must-have for anyone serious about their scale RC crawler setup.
The Baja Claw TTC tread pattern delivers that distinctive, authentic look that makes your RC rig turn heads at the trail or the track. Combined with RC4WD's reputation for quality engineering and attention to scale detail, these tyres transform your crawler's appearance and capability in equal measure. Each pair comes complete with foam inserts and authentic Mickey Thompson decals, giving you everything needed to complete your scale build with genuine branded components.
Key Features
- Officially Licensed by Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels — These tyres carry the genuine Mickey Thompson licence, meaning you're getting authentic reproduction tyres based on the real Baja Claw design used in full-size motorsport competition, bringing genuine scale accuracy to your RC crawler.
- Advanced X2 SS Compound (Super Soft & Super Sticky) — The specially formulated X2 SS rubber compound provides exceptional grip and traction on rocks, dirt, and challenging terrain, allowing your RC crawler to maintain contact with the ground and climb obstacles that would defeat standard tyres.
- Reinforced Sidewall Construction — The strengthened sidewall design prevents deformation during aggressive off-road driving, maintaining tyre shape under load and improving stability when navigating rocky terrain or climbing steep inclines common in scale RC crawling.
- Authentic Baja Claw TTC Tread Pattern — The detailed tread design is directly inspired by the full-size Mickey Thompson Baja Claw tyre, delivering authentic scale looks that create an impressive finished appearance on your crawler whilst also providing functional traction in off-road conditions.
- Recon G6 Certified — This product has been tested and approved by the Recon G6 organisation, confirming quality standards and performance reliability for RC hobbyists in the UK and worldwide.
- Complete Package with Foam Inserts — Each pair includes foam inserts that provide essential shock absorption and traction characteristics, ensuring your tyres perform consistently across different driving surfaces and conditions.
- Includes Mickey Thompson Decal Sheet — Authentic Mickey Thompson branding decals are included, allowing you to add genuine manufacturer logos to your rig for complete scale authenticity.
- Designed for RC4WD 1.55" Wheels — Engineered specifically for RC4WD's 1.55-inch wheel range with beadlock compatibility, these tyres offer guaranteed fitment with RC4WD wheels whilst remaining compatible with many other premium RC wheel brands, though fitment with other manufacturers' wheels may vary.
Technical Performance
The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.55" Baja Claw TTC tyres represent a significant step forward in scale RC tyre technology. The outer diameter of 4.5 inches (114mm) with a width of 1.61 inches (41mm) and inner diameter of 1.55 inches (39mm) creates the perfect scale proportions for 1/10 scale crawlers whilst providing sufficient ground clearance and traction characteristics for demanding off-road use. The advanced X2 SS compound is engineered from super-soft, super-sticky rubber that grips rock, gravel, and dirt surfaces with impressive tenacity, allowing your RC crawler to maintain traction where standard compound tyres would slip. The reinforced sidewall structure, mentioned throughout RC4WD's engineering documentation, prevents the tread from folding under the intense pressures experienced during climbing and navigating obstacles, which is critical when pushing your crawler to its limits on technical terrain. Each individual tyre weighs 3.2 ounces (91 grams), providing the perfect balance between weight and structural integrity. The foam inserts included with every pair work in harmony with the tyre compound to absorb impacts from rocks and roots whilst maintaining consistent contact with the ground surface. The tread depth has been engineered to deliver both scale authenticity and practical traction, providing aggressive bite without excessive squirm. This level of engineering quality ensures that whether you're running casual trail sessions through parks across the UK or competing in organised RC crawler events, these tyres will deliver consistent performance and durability across extended driving sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these RC4WD Baja Claw tyres suitable for my existing RC wheel collection? — The RC4WD Mickey Thompson 1.55" Baja Claw TTC tyres are designed primarily for RC4WD's 1.55-inch wheels and beadlocks, guaranteeing perfect fitment with those wheels. Whilst these tyres may work with other premium brand wheels in some cases, RC4WD cannot guarantee fitment due to the many different design methods used by various manufacturers. For best results and guaranteed compatibility, we recommend pairing these tyres with genuine RC4WD wheels. If you're unsure about compatibility with your existing wheels, contact our team at RC Model Shop and we can advise on your specific setup.
- What makes the X2 SS compound better than standard RC tyre rubber? — The advanced X2 SS compound is formulated to be super-soft and super-sticky compared to standard RC tyre compounds, meaning it provides significantly better grip on challenging surfaces like rocks, dirt, and gravel. This softer compound does wear slightly faster than harder compounds when running on pavement, but for trail crawling and off-road use, the traction advantage is substantial. The compound works in harmony with the reinforced sidewall to keep your RC crawler planted on difficult terrain.
- Can these tyres work with my existing RC4WD crawler setup? — If you currently run an RC4WD crawler with 1.55-inch wheels, these tyres will fit perfectly. The 1.55-inch inner diameter matches RC4WD's standard wheel sizing. However, if you run a different wheel size or brand, compatibility may vary. RC Model Shop recommends ensuring your wheels are compatible before ordering. If you need to upgrade your wheels as well, we stock genuine RC4WD wheels and beadlocks designed to work perfectly with these tyres.
- How do the foam inserts affect tyre performance? — The foam inserts included with each pair of tyres are essential to performance and provide two critical functions. First, they absorb impacts from rocks and obstacles, protecting your RC crawler's wheels and suspension from shock damage. Second, they maintain the tyre's shape under load, ensuring consistent contact with the ground and predictable handling characteristics. Never run these tyres without their foam inserts, as performance and durability will be significantly compromised.
- Are these tyres officially licensed by Mickey Thompson? — Yes, absolutely. These are the only RC4WD Baja Claw TTC tyres officially licensed by Mickey Thompson Performance Tires & Wheels. This means the tread design, proportions, and branding are authentic reproductions of Mickey Thompson's full-size Baja Claw tyre, bringing genuine motorsport heritage to your scale RC build. This official licensing is why these tyres are only available through RC4WD and authorised dealers.
- What scale RC vehicles are these tyres suitable for? — These 1.55-inch tyres are specifically engineered for 1/10 scale RC crawlers, buggies, and trail trucks. They are not compatible with significantly larger scales like 1/8 or 1/6, nor with smaller scales like 1/18. The 1.55-inch diameter is the perfect size for 1/10 scale vehicles, delivering authentic proportions and performance characteristics.
- How long will these tyres last with regular use? — Tyre lifespan depends heavily on driving surface and intensity. The soft X2 SS compound will wear faster on rough pavement than on natural terrain, but provides superior grip on rocks and dirt. For typical trail crawling on rocks and dirt, these tyres offer excellent durability and longevity. For pavement bashing, softer compound tyres always wear more quickly than harder compounds. Proper maintenance, including cleaning after each session and storing in a cool, dry location, extends tyre lifespan significantly.
