These adhesive crawler tyres are made for 1.0 inch wheels and use a butyl super soft rubber compound with standard foam inserts and internal reinforcement. The construction aims to improve traction on rock, loose dirt and wet surfaces while offering appropriate durability for scale use.
From the source: the tyre outer dimensions are 53mm x 20.5mm and a standard foam insert provides sidewall support. The inner diameter is slightly undersized to provide a snug fit and reduce slippage on the wheel. The bead and clamping area have an extended tongue profile to assist fitting, and a longer fixing screw with a narrow clamp thickness is noted to enable easier direct mounting and single-hand clamping.
Practical setup notes: softer tyres create a larger and more conforming contact patch than hard plastics or TPU, which improves low-speed traction but means you should check weight distribution and shock preload after fitting. Confirm wheel hex and screw length compatibility before final installation. This item is intended for RC use only.
