Overview

The RC4WD Mud Slinger 2 XL 1.9" Scale Tyres represent a significant upgrade to RC4WD's already legendary tyre range, now available as a taller, more imposing version of the classic Mud Slinger design. These premium scale tyres are engineered specifically for serious RC crawlers, scale trucks, and off-road enthusiasts who demand authentic proportions and exceptional grip. Whether you're running a Gmade Sawback, an RC4WD 6 Lug Wagon, or other compatible 1.9" wheel platforms, the Mud Slinger 2 XL delivers the kind of performance and appearance that separates dedicated scale builders from casual enthusiasts. For UK RC hobbyists looking to upgrade their crawler or scale truck setup, these tyres offer genuine value and the quality assurance of an established RC4WD product.

What makes the Mud Slinger 2 XL particularly special is its evolution from the original Mud Slinger design. RC4WD listened to feedback from the scale RC community and increased the overall height, giving modern scale crawlers and trucks a more proportionally accurate appearance while maintaining the same proven traction characteristics. These tyres are ideal for rock crawling, trail running, and display-quality scale builds where authenticity matters. If you're building a show-stopping 1.9" scale rig or upgrading from worn tyres, the Mud Slinger 2 XL should be at the top of your consideration list. The combination of advanced rubber compound, thoughtful engineering, and proven performance makes these a trusted choice among discerning RC enthusiasts in the UK and beyond.

Supplied as a pair with foam inserts included, the Mud Slinger 2 XL 1.9" Scale Tyres are ready to install straight out of the box on any compatible 1.9" wheel. Each tyre is individually engineered to consistent standards, ensuring balanced handling and predictable performance across both front and rear axles. Whether you're tackling rocky terrain, muddy trails, or simply want your scale crawler to turn heads at the local RC club, these tyres deliver serious capability.

Key Features

• Advanced X2 SS Compound — RC4WD's exclusive Super Soft and Super Sticky rubber formula provides exceptional grip and traction in a wide variety of terrain conditions, from dry rocky surfaces to wet mud and loose gravel, ensuring your crawler maintains contact and control in demanding environments.
• Increased Scale Height — The Mud Slinger 2 XL represents a taller evolution of the classic design, offering improved proportions that enhance the scale appearance of modern 1.9" RC crawlers and trucks whilst maintaining authentic styling for display-quality builds.
• Inner Ribbing for Sidewall Support — Strategically placed inner ribbing reinforces the tyre sidewalls, reducing flex and providing additional structural integrity during aggressive cornering, climbing, and demanding terrain negotiation, which extends tyre life and improves handling predictability.
• Foam Inserts Included — Each tyre is supplied with a matching foam insert, eliminating the need for separate purchasing and ensuring perfect compatibility and performance straight from the box, which is essential for maintaining proper tyre shape and ground contact.
• Designed for 1.9" Wheels — Engineered specifically to work seamlessly with 1.9" scale wheels including RC4WD 6 Lug Wagon Steel Stamped Beadlock Wheels and Gmade Sawback wheels, though as with all RC4WD products, cross-brand fitment with other manufacturers' wheels is not guaranteed due to design variations.
• Quality RC4WD Engineering — RC4WD's reputation for precision manufacturing and attention to detail ensures consistent quality and performance, with every tyre manufactured to exacting standards and carefully inspected before shipment to UK RC enthusiasts.

Technical Performance

The Mud Slinger 2 XL 1.9" Scale Tyres represent a pinnacle of scale tyre design, combining RC4WD's proprietary Advanced X2 SS compound with thoughtful engineering that prioritises both performance and authentic appearance. The tyres measure 4.21 inches in outer diameter and 1.5 inches in width, creating a tall, proportionally correct profile that enhances the scale realism of any 1.9" crawler or truck build. With an inner diameter of 1.9 inches, they fit standard 1.9" wheels perfectly, whilst the individual tyre weight of 2.57 ounces ensures balanced rotating mass that won't overwhelm your vehicle's suspension geometry. The Super Soft, Super Sticky X2 SS rubber compound is specifically formulated to provide exceptional traction across diverse terrain types, from smooth tarmac to loose rocks, mud, and challenging off-road surfaces. Inner ribbing provides critical sidewall support, preventing excessive deformation during aggressive driving and maintaining consistent ground contact even during extreme angles and climbing manoeuvres. This engineering approach ensures the Mud Slinger 2 XL delivers reliable performance whether you're gentle with your rig during a scenic trail run or pushing hard during competitive rock crawling events. The included foam inserts are essential components that maintain tyre shape, support the sidewalls during use, and ensure optimal weight distribution for balanced handling across your RC crawler's four corners.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Will the RC4WD Mud Slinger 2 XL 1.9" Scale Tyres fit my RC crawler? — These tyres are specifically designed for 1.9" wheels and will fit RC4WD products seamlessly, including the 6 Lug Wagon platform. They are confirmed compatible with Gmade Sawback vehicles. However, due to variations in how different manufacturers design tyres and wheels, cross-brand fitment with other brands' wheels cannot be guaranteed, so if you're using non-RC4WD wheels, please check compatibility before ordering.
• What is the difference between the Mud Slinger 2 XL and the original Mud Slinger? — The Mud Slinger 2 XL is a taller version of the original Mud Slinger, offering increased overall height whilst maintaining the proven traction characteristics and compound formula that made the original popular. This larger profile provides improved scale proportions for modern crawlers and trucks.
• How many sets of tyres do I need for my RC crawler? — Since this product supplies one pair of tyres (two individual tyres), you will need two complete sets of the Mud Slinger 2 XL to equip all four corners of your RC crawler or truck. This means you should order this product twice to complete a full tyre setup.
• Are foam inserts included with these tyres? — Yes, foam inserts are included in the box. Each tyre comes with a matching foam insert, so there is no need to purchase inserts separately. Simply install the tyre and foam combination onto your 1.9" wheels.
• What makes the Advanced X2 SS compound special? — RC4WD's Advanced X2 SS compound is a proprietary Super Soft, Super Sticky rubber formula developed specifically for scale RC applications. This compound provides exceptional grip and traction across a wide variety of terrain types, from rocky crawling spots to muddy trails, ensuring your vehicle maintains contact and control in demanding conditions.
• Are these tyres suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. The Mud Slinger 2 XL 1.9" Scale Tyres are suitable for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels. They are easy to install, require no special knowledge or tools beyond basic wheel assembly, and their excellent grip characteristics actually make them more forgiving for newer drivers learning to pilot RC crawlers and trucks.
• Can I order a single tyre instead of a pair? — Yes, RC4WD offers the Mud Slinger 2 XL as a single tyre (model Z-P0049), allowing you to replace individual tyres if needed or to purchase one tyre at a time.
