Product Information
Full details
This guide is for owners of T-Maxx Monster Trucks looking to enhance their vehicle's traction and handling, especially on softer surfaces. The Louise RC MT-Cyclone tires offer a significant upgrade in grip with their soft compound and aggressive tread pattern. A potential caveat is their suitability primarily for specific T-Maxx models and the need for 17mm hex hubs.

FAQs
What type of surfaces are these tires best suited for?
These tires, with their soft compound and aggressive tread, are best suited for loose surfaces like dirt, mud, and grass.
Do these tires come with inserts?
Yes, the Louise RC MT-Cyclone tires include foam inserts for optimal performance.
Are these tires glued to the wheels?
Yes, these tires come pre-glued, making them ready for immediate installation.
What is the wheel hex size required for these tires?
These tires require a 17mm hex fitment for installation.
Will these tires fit my Traxxas Summit?
While designed for the T-Maxx, compatibility with other trucks like the Summit depends on whether they use a 17mm hex hub and have clearance for the tire dimensions (70.2mm width, 136.9mm diameter).
How do I clean the tires?
Use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and debris. Avoid using solvents or harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.
Can I use these tires on a high-speed oval track?
The soft compound and aggressive tread are not ideal for high-speed oval tracks, as they can lead to excessive wear and reduced stability at high speeds on smooth surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Tires are not mounting correctly onto the hub.
Ensure you are using a wheel with a 17mm hex drive and that it is properly seated on the axle.
Traction seems reduced on hard-packed surfaces.
The soft compound is optimized for loose surfaces; consider a harder compound tire for predominantly hard-packed conditions.
Tire inserts feel too soft or too firm.
The included inserts are standard. For fine-tuning, you may consider experimenting with aftermarket inserts if available for this tire size and type.
Excessive wear on the tread.
This can occur on abrasive surfaces. Reduce use on asphalt or concrete. Clean tires after each run to prolong tread life.
