Frequently Asked Questions
- What does 50 Shore mean on RC tyres? — The Shore rating is a measure of rubber hardness on the durometer scale. A 50 Shore tyre is medium-hardness, designed to provide a balance between grip and durability. Softer tyres (lower numbers) offer more grip but wear faster, whilst harder tyres (higher numbers) last longer but provide less traction. The 50 Shore specification on FTX Khaos tyres is optimised for general-purpose running across varying track conditions.
- Are these tyres suitable for a beginner with an FTX Khaos? — Yes, absolutely. These are the genuine factory-specification replacement tyres for the FTX Khaos truggy, making them ideal for anyone learning the hobby. Beginners will benefit from the predictable handling and reliable grip characteristics, and the medium-hardness compound is forgiving across a range of driving styles and track conditions.
- What is included in this purchase? — This product is sold as a pair (PR), meaning you receive two tyres in a single order. This allows you to replace both front or both rear tyres simultaneously, maintaining balanced grip across your RC truggy and ensuring consistent handling.
- How often will I need to replace these tyres? — Tyre life depends on your usage pattern, running surface, and driving style. Weekend bashers might expect several running sessions per set, whilst competitive racers may need replacements more frequently. The 50 Shore compound is known for reasonable longevity without excessive wear, making it economical for regular users.
- Are these the same tyres that come standard on new FTX Khaos trucks? — Yes, these FTX Khaos Tyres 50 Shore are the genuine OEM replacement specification for FTX Khaos 1/10 4WD truggy models, making them identical to the factory-fitted tyres on new ready to run RC vehicles.
- Can I use different durometer tyres on my Khaos? — Whilst the FTX Khaos is designed around the 50 Shore specification, different durometer compounds may be available depending on your running conditions and preferences. However, these genuine 50 Shore tyres are the factory recommendation and will deliver optimal performance characteristics.
