A monster of a micro tire!

I got the ball rolling on these being made, Rc4wd is awesome for listening to it's customers. Even though the micro crawler community is a rather small niche group in the rc world, Rc4wd heard our call!

Taller than MiniQlo Miclaws but not as wide. The new compound is excellent, super soft & sticky, makes them feel much thinner than previous offerings, maybe they are? The tread pattern is directional, to me it's sorta a blend of the Rok Lox, MT Baja Claws and a little Maxxis Trepador thrown in there.

The spacing on the lugs is a very good aspect to these I feel, it's good to let rock edges be able to catch in there and it helps a lot in allowing tire deformation and conforming to the terrain. I feel like the sidewall lugs could have a little more available real estate coming off there for them to hook up, they taper off too soon and could be a little longer.

This tire is supper tall and soft so it will most likely require some amount of foam left in to keep from folding over in off camber or side hilling scenarios. These scale out to a 50" tire on a 1/20 build for those interested in such info, so choose these wisely, they aren't for stock Trail Trekkers or smaller scale builds at all.

You will also need a decent offset in your wheels if you still want to be able to turn your rig without eating your wheel wells and front bumper.

I haven't gotten the chance to run these yet but I am experienced with micro crawler tires and I run them often on real terrain, I think this tire will do quite well on rock and in dirt and certainly has the size to deal with deeper mud, maybe just not the tread pattern for it. All in all, I have some mixed feelings on these so far but can't wait to put them to the test on a suitable rig, so that I can say definitively how they match up.

Big and sticky tires with awesome performance!

Large diameter, and super sticky rubber! Climbing and crawling performance is amazing compared to stock tires. I use it on an Axial SCX24 Betty. Had to cut the fenders to make room for the massive size, but that was as expected. Really glad I got them, makes the car feel like a totally different vehicle.Read full review

Perfect little tires!

These little tires are fantastic! The rubber is soft, grippy, and exactly what you would want in a crawler tire.

Great crawler tires!

Great tires. Soft grippy compound really hangs on. Adds about 1/2 inch to height, but narrows the tracking width.

Little tires

Very tall 1.0 tires, very soft and sticky.
Only complaint is there's not much tread on the tires.
