Key Features
- Advanced X2SS Compound — The BULLY 2.2" features an advanced X2SS compound that is specifically formulated to be super soft and super sticky, delivering exceptional grip and traction across varied terrain and conditions. This compound has been developed with input from the RC4WD crawler team and tested extensively, ensuring it performs reliably when competition is on the line and maximum grip is essential.
- Competition-Grade Design — Unlike general-purpose crawler tyres, these are purpose-built for serious rock crawling competition. Every aspect of the design, from the compound formulation to the tread pattern, has been refined through extensive testing to maximize performance in competitive environments where consistency and reliability matter.
- Included Foam Inserts — Each tyre comes with a foam insert that balances grip and support, providing the perfect combination of compliance for maximum rubber contact with uneven terrain while maintaining structural integrity during aggressive crawling. These foam inserts are specifically designed to work in harmony with the BULLY 2.2" tyre construction.
- Optimised Dimensions for 2.2" Wheels — With an outside diameter of 5.35 inches (136mm), a width of 1.81 inches (46mm), and an inside diameter of 2.2 inches (56mm), these tyres are precisely engineered to fit 2.2-inch competition crawler wheels. The dimensions have been optimised to deliver the ideal balance of ground clearance, traction footprint, and vehicle dynamics.
- Lightweight Construction — At just 3.35 ounces (95 grams) per tyre, the BULLY 2.2" keeps your rig light and nimble without sacrificing durability or traction. Lighter tyres reduce unsprung weight and improve vehicle dynamics, allowing for better responsiveness and handling, particularly important when navigating technical terrain.
- Tested by Professional Crawlers — These tyres were developed with direct input from the RC4WD crawler team and tested extensively across multiple conditions and terrains. When you buy BULLY 2.2" tyres, you're getting rubber that professional competitors trust and rely upon for their own rigs.
- Designed for RC4WD Wheel Compatibility — RC4WD tyres and wheels are designed to work together seamlessly. The BULLY 2.2" is engineered specifically for compatibility with RC4WD 2.2-inch wheels, ensuring optimal fitment, performance and longevity. While cross-brand fitment may be possible, RC4WD recommends using these tyres with RC4WD wheels for guaranteed performance.
Technical Performance
The BULLY 2.2" Competition Tyre represents years of engineering refinement specifically focused on delivering superior rock crawling performance. The advanced X2SS compound is the result of collaborative development between RC4WD and their professional crawler team, formulated to provide exceptional grip across the varied and demanding terrain that competitive crawling presents. Rock crawling requires tyres that can conform to irregular rock surfaces, maintain grip on loose gravel, and provide traction on compact soil — the X2SS compound excels in all these scenarios through its super-soft, super-sticky formulation. The softness allows the tyre to deform slightly and maintain maximum rubber contact with uneven surfaces, whilst the tackiness ensures that contact translates directly into gripping power. The included foam inserts play a critical role in performance by providing structural support that prevents the tyre from collapsing excessively under load whilst allowing enough compliance to optimise contact patch. This balance is essential in competition crawling where both traction and vehicle control are paramount. At 3.35 ounces per tyre, the BULLY 2.2" contributes minimal unsprung weight to your crawler, which improves suspension articulation and responsiveness. The precise dimensions — 5.35 inches OD, 1.81 inches width, and 2.2 inches ID — have been carefully engineered to deliver the optimal contact patch size, ground clearance and vehicle geometry for 2.2-inch competitive crawler platforms. These tyres are recommended for serious enthusiasts, competitive crawlers, and anyone building a high-performance rock crawling rig that demands the very best rubber.
