This Serpent 214018 is a ready-mounted 1/10 scale buggy tyre supplied on a white rim, specified for 4WD off-road buggies with a medium compound. As a fitted wheel and tyre assembly it removes the need for separate mounting, letting you swap wheels quickly during practice or race day without additional tooling.
Design and role: the assembly is an RC-scale tyre and rim combination intended for general off-road use. The medium compound balances grip and durability, making it suitable for mixed surfaces commonly found at club tracks. Because it arrives mounted, attention is needed on wheel trueness and tyre seating before active use.
Installation notes: check wheel hex fitment and secure the rim to your hub using the correct wheel nuts and torque for your chassis. Confirm the tyre bead is seated evenly around the rim and spin the wheel to look for wobble. If balancing is required, use small lead tape patches on the rim inner face to reduce vibration at speed.
Tuning considerations: compound choice affects traction and steering response, so treat medium as a baseline when comparing softer or harder options. Mounted tyres change handling minimally compared with glued tyres, but ensure the tyre profile and offset match your chassis setup to avoid unintended roll or scrub. For better traction on hardpack, consider surface preparation like scuffing the tyre face lightly with fine-grit abrasive before the first run.
This is a scale wheel and tyre assembly intended to fit 1/10 4WD off-road buggies, offering a practical medium-compound option for club-level practice and race settings.
