RC4WD 1.0 Tire Comparison! Which tire is for you?

Checking out the rc4wd line of tires for the scx24. 1.0 tires are a bit hard to come by sometimes. What is best for your build?
My favorite rc4wd tires in order are below. They sort of vary depending on what size I’m really looking for on a certain build.
1. Mudslingers (large tire but killer grip) found here
bit.ly/3uu26u9
2. BFGOODRICH KM3S found here
bit.ly/3i99dpD
3. Patagonia’s (mid tire and great performance)
4. Rock Creepers or TSL Boggers (smaller tires but both good grip- great on the C10)
5. Good Year Wranglers (mid tire,great performance- Patagonia’s do a little better on my course though) found here
bit.ly/3fWMQRk
6. Scramblers (big tire with great performance-softer sidewall and not as meaty as the mudslingers)
7. Thornbirds (small tire, great performance but too small for most of my applications)
Rok Lox are just too small for me. Never really been able to use them on any of my builds.

Very very cool man. These long detailed videos help all the new comers to the rc world. I’ve own a few but never bought tires for any of them. So to me, this is very helpful. Thanks buddy. Those Thorn birds do look mean. Thanks for the hard work.

Great info to have for my own Deadbolt, currently running rock lizards with no foams on standard wheels with brass weights and they work very well. Always looking for the most grip possible though and this saves me a load of cash trying some out, so thanks for that. The patagonias are looking pretty sweet right now. Awesome content ❤️

I normally don’t vent any of my tires because I usually go through or over whatever I come to so I have a hard time staying dry most runs lol. These smaller tires I could probably vent just because I’m mostly indoor.

Are the scramblers stiffer than stock c10 tires?

Brilliant vid; very grateful, thank you. We run Scramblers on majority of our 1/24 rigs & love 'em. We don't use their supplied foam. We use a foam which is used for copper pipe insulation; we cut to a custom width, sizing it to the full width of our wheel rim; our chosen wheel rims are the beadlock wheels found on the HBX 2098B 1/24 Devastator. Really like the RC4WD Thornbird tyre 👍 Would really love to give those tyres ago but not available here in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 UK 🇬🇧 Thanks again for your time sharing! 🤝

Rewatching this as I'm looking for new tires yet again, it's becoming expensive. Then I remembered you had done all the costly bits for us, so once again, thanks for the efforts. Not least because my beadlocks are stamped steel and are absolute effing pigs to assemble and I only want to reassemble one more time. I have rock creepers on just now, they're a little small on O. D. but man they stick like shit to a blanket. Only tall tires I can lay my hands on are the RC4wd scramblers

Washing the tires with Simple Green will make the tire sticker & takes the mold release off. Can’t say that it will soften the tire but you can tell the difference. That was one of the best tire comparisons I have seen. I thought that the Nittos were better on my C10 but they are on steel wheels so not a good comparison really. Now I want to mount the stock C10 tires on the steel wheels. Maybe I need to order another set of steel wheels.🤔 Yea that’s the ticket.

@RC CRAWL Probably you never had the real soft WPL tires but only the medium ones... - why do you call them trash tires?

I appreciate it! I need to update it now that the mudslingers are out and a few others. I really like the bfgoodrich km3s and the mudslingers are the best period if you can fit them. I didn’t have weights in all of them so figured I’d just go with a base test. Some of the wheels like the rage beadlocks won’t fit the wheel weights so I run the mil stone style weights etc so I figured it would be better to test them all minus their weights.

I am planning to get a set of RC4WD Stamped Steel 1.0 Stock Beadlock Wheels, as I believe those are about the cheapest RC4WD wheels that will fit the tires. My understanding is I cannot run wheel weights with those, correct? In lieu of wheel weights, what would you recommend to add weight/lower my COG? Would you recommend the Hot Racing - Brass Front Steering Knuckle, Axial SCX24 - SXTF21H?

If not would you recommend a stock offset wheel and weight tire set up to get me started. Would like to order all at the same time. I Can't find those tires yet online.

[@2fmrc]

Yes the Patagonia’s will fit a stock wheel. You’ll have to remove the stock tires or order a set of stock wheels alone. All of the wheels and tires I ordered from rc4wd website but almost everything is out of stock and hard to find for these things atm. I sometimes get stuff from eBay as well but people like to jack the price up on eBay. The hot racing aluminum steering links have been out of stock for a good month or so. There are some stronger/better plastic steering links on shapeways.com if you search scx24 you’ll find a bunch of stuff and should see the links as well. It’s really hard to link any of this stuff at the moment because it’s seriously all backordered. It’s driving me insane!

I have only killed one and it was ran for a very long time. Where did you buy it? Usually they’ll replace it fairly easily. Contact axial or horizon or whoever you got it from for sure! Sorry to hear that it died so soon. They really are a blast MOST of the time lol

[@jpyt7182]

So the wrangler tire is slightly taller than the Patagonia? Them scrambler tires look bigger than I was expecting. I wanted to put them on my c10 since I put the kinetic double barrel shocks and they give it a pretty decent lift. I'm currently using the stiffer springs that came with them. I'm just not sure about the the Fitment

[@2fmrc]

You’ll definitely need to do a lot of cutting with the scramblers or the mudslingers on a C10

[@jpyt7182]

@@2fmrc looks like the wranglers, mud slinger and scrambler are sold out all over the place. 🤬 lol

[@jaycarva]

Will the scramblers fit a stock deadbolt? If so would you recommend it?

[@2fmrc]

Yes they will and if you can’t get mudslingers then I would recommend them. They are some really good tires overall.

[@hobbykinghorton6201]

Have you tried soaking any hard tires you have with WD-40? Few hours in that it softens the rubber, also expands them so make sure the tyres are already glued to wheel before soaking them!

[@2fmrc]

Yeah I do my 1/10 tires sometimes. I tried it on some of the stock scx24 tires but only once. It may have helped a bit. Probably would’ve been better if I had soaked them a few times.

[@hobbykinghorton6201]

I did it by accident trying to loosen the tire glue on my barrage 24, didn't mean to leave them in over night 🤫 .didn't effect the tyre glue at all.. the tyres performed way better tho

[@thatsharshman.8544]

So which one do you run on the c10 now?

[@adamr8628]

In 2024 What would be some of the best tire choices for grip, especially smooth surfaces like rocks? Any really soft, sticky compounds that stand out? Im looking for an average size, not a larger tire. I'm new to crawling and i'm trying to get the best tire on the first try without having to switch to something else later.

[@2fmrc]

Jconcepts ruptures & megalithics are great. I really like the Injora 64mm s5 compound tires. Proline trenchers & dj crawler 68mm are good also. So many good tires now!

[@caseyroorda4944]

I just bought my first scx24 (rubicon) and I was wondering what the best first few upgrades I should get?

[@2fmrc]

I’m so sorry I missed this comment until now. KZbin is really starting to hide them from me and I try to keep up but miss some. I would recommend checking out my video that I did on my Jeep setup. It don’t have a ton of mods and is an amazing little crawler. Definitely wheels and tires with some weights and a servo to start with. Shocks and steering links next in my opinion. Then you can dial it in from there with a little brass weight here or there if you want. That’s really about all the Jeep needs. I love the cr24 shocks on my Jeep and wouldn’t change them for anything at the moment. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need anything else. Again, so sorry I missed the comment.

Have you tried the Baja claws? Tryna see witch ones better Patagonia’s or Baja claws or the boggers?

[@2fmrc]

The Baja claws are one of the only 2 tires from them I haven’t ran lol. I just never have ran them. They are so close to the boggers and I’ve always had a couple sets of those so I never bothered getting any. I LOVE the Patagonia’s honestly. Perfect size for most rigs and great grip indoor and outdoor usually. Boggers are also great outdoors. Just a tad smaller than Patagonia’s

Looking at the RC4WD comp beadlocks or the rage beadlocks for a set of Scramblers. Do both hold them good or does one work better then the other? I have Treal beadlocks and the Scramblers come off the bead.

I’ve had a couple issues with my rage wheels losing the bead on the scramblers also. Not sure if it’s the scramblers or the wheels lol. I haven’t had an issue with my comps losing the bead but I haven’t had scramblers on the either.

Can you mount the thorn birds to the stock wheels?

Should be able to. Just have to glue them. Sometimes the rc4wd tires fit a little loose on the stock wheels but usually you can make them work just depends on the precision of the tires honestly. I definitely prefer beadlocks for them.

[@EXPIOWA]

Who are the morons that gave this a thumbs down? To put out a video like this for us is a huge undertaking. I appreciate you for sharing this Matt. Love the channel. Small tires with flipped dish stamped steel wheels give away do much diff clearance the are almost worthless on rugged terrain. It was painful to watch it struggle. Lol

[@2fmrc]

Thanks so much! I even had someone say I didn’t spend enough time with each aftermarket tire. I’m like…. well the vid would’ve been 2hrs long if I had 😆. I really just wanted to show one climb with each and hopefully it helped out. I really need to do an update vid of my favorite tires at this point because lots of new ones have came out since this vid!

@@2fmrc I increase the playback speed for long videos. I watch them 2X as quickly. When I do a tire test, it is head to head with only two sets. The video would get very long. You took on a huge task presenting so many at once and kept it pretty concise. Credit given. 👍

[@timsgta]

Can you put foam in the stock tires? I'm asking bc I'm not ready to buy tires and wheels, yet. I have 24th scale foam on hand already though...

[@2fmrc]

Not really. If you could get the stock tires off of the wheels clean enough to reuse you could I guess. It’s usually hard to get them off though. Honestly the stock tires are so hard that they really don’t even need foam.

Yep I vent all of them now. Lots of better compounds and tires available now. Plus we have Flubberstufferz which work great with vented tires. Most of these Rc4wd tires have been left in the dust now with all of the new compounds we have.

What are the white wheels on the c10. those deep wheels look great.

Have you had a chance to run the thorn birds yet?

[@2fmrc]

Honestly no. When the mudslingers came out I pulled the Thornbirds for them and haven’t looked back lol. I really like the Thornbirds it they are small. Other than my C10 I wouldn’t really run them in anything else just due to their size. I’ve been meaning to get another set of wheels to mount them on and run some more but everything has been hard to get ahold of lately.

[@BackpackerJourney-up8ck]

Are the mud slingers a 1.55 or 1.9 tire?

They are a 1.0 also. I have a video on them as well. They hadn’t been released when I made this vid.

Again.. Great content, a little outdated of course. Have you done a newer tire comparison video? There are a ton of awesome tires these days.

Really appreciate it. I did a small/medium tire sort of best of type video awhile back but even it is now outdated. The tires just got to coming out sooooo fast it’s hard to stay on top of them lol. I need to do a vid on my favorite overall tires at each size. Like my favorite tire in a small,medium & large size.

[@ScutuRC]

I thought there's a list in the description with all the tires name (so I know what to search for), eventually in order - the best at first... :( ....

[@2fmrc]

Well there was but they’ve all been out of stock for the last 2 months so none of the links were any good. Kinda aggravating that we can’t even get wheels and tires at the moment. Maybe I’ll add them back to the description and just put a huge message at the top that I don’t know when they’ll be back in stock and I’m sorry if the links are no good lol. I just kept having people say “the links no good, it says out of stock. Where can I get this or that tire?”

[@ScutuRC]

@@2fmrc Thanks for getting back to me. I won't need any links but the actual name of the tires - I can look on ebay, etc. :)

[@2fmrc]

And as far as listing them in order that’s sort of personal preference really and always changing. Now that the mudslinger are out they are 100% the best tire in my opinion but they are also huge! So not for every application. They released several new tires in the same compound as the mudslingers but they’ve been out of stock since release so I haven’t even been able to test them. With the list of tires always changing if I list the best now then it’ll change in a month or 2 and then people will be complaining that I’m an idiot because I think X tire is best. They won’t look to see that the video is 3-4 months old and that tire wasn’t even available then lol

They are the rc4wd raceline beadlocks. Very nice wheels. If you get them plan on getting a driver for the little tiny screws in the beadlocks or making a tool.

the Rear should always be stiffer, stiffer foams stiffer shocks for climbing, you Never want your rear end collapsing on a Crawler 1:1 or 1/24 & you always want your front end softer, softer foams or no foams & softer shocks.. 👍🏼

[@2fmrc]

I definitely agree on not wanting the rear to collapse but I like a little softer tire more firm suspension in the rear for traction but no tipping. I definitely don’t want a super soft front for those downhill turning situations. Has a lot to do with truck setup and personal preference. My buddy and I run quite a bit different setups on our 1/10s but both outdo most. It’s crazy how totally different setups can work well but just gotta be dialed in.
