Pro-Line has developed the technology to mold a High-Performance herringbone weave pattern Belt inside of the Badlands MX38 HP tires that will prevent the tire from ballooning or expanding during use. This will give you maximum control to put the power down even at high speeds! The Badlands MX38 HP 3.8" tires provide the incredible grip that you expect from Pro-Line due to the soft M2 compound and the aggressive Motocross inspired tread. Pro-Line also heard the calls for a new tire size to fit the current generation of Monster Trucks and the all new MX38 HP delivers at 3.48" wide and 6.8" tall. Just like all of Pro-Line's tires, they are proudly Made in the USA!
Please note that the Badlands MX38 HP tires have a maximum speed rating that, if exceeded, could result in permanently damaging the internal belt. Over revving your Badlands MX38 HP tires could result in breaking the internal belt, which will NOT be covered under warranty. This can be caused by "diffing out" your tires or holding the throttle open while one, two or three of your tires are stopped, which substantially increases the RPM sent to the free spinning tire or tires.
The new Belted Badlands MX38 HP 3.8" tires come Pre-Mounted on the next generation 3.8" wheel design from Pro-Line, the Raid 3.8" Removable Hex Wheel! Imagine being able to replace a damaged wheel hex without needing to replace your glued tires! These new Raid 3.8" wheels make this possible by using a unique 8x32 interlocking hex design that is secured to the wheel by 8 M3 screws that are spaced 32mm across. The hexes are included and are also available separately (PRO634500). The built-in adjustability and ease of use make this a new must-have wheel for backyard bashers everywhere!

Technical Performance
The Badlands MX38 HP BELTED tyres represent the pinnacle of 3.8" tyre engineering for 1/8 scale monster trucks and comparable RC vehicles. The innovative belted construction is the standout performance feature – by moulding a high-performance herringbone weave pattern into the internal structure of the tyre, Pro-Line has solved one of the fundamental challenges of running large-diameter tyres at high speeds: tyre ballooning. This is when a tyre expands outward under centrifugal force at high RPMs, changing the vehicle's geometry, reducing control, and potentially causing instability or loss of grip. The belted design prevents this entirely, maintaining consistent tyre shape and diameter throughout acceleration runs and high-speed cornering. The soft M2 compound rubber provides exceptional grip across all surface types – loose and loamy dirt, mud, grass, and even hard-packed terrain – without requiring tyre swaps between different track conditions. The aggressive motocross-inspired tread pattern with bold knobby elements digs into soft surfaces for traction while still maintaining stability on more compact terrain. These tyres measure 3.48" wide and 6.8" tall, making them perfectly proportioned for current-generation monster truck chassis from manufacturers including E-REVO 2.0, SUMMIT, ARRMA KRATON, Tekno MT410, and other compatible 17mm hex platforms. The wheels themselves are constructed from high-strength DuPont nylon material that resists impacts and crashes without cracking or breaking, essential for serious bashers who test their equipment to its limits. The removable hex system revolutionises wheel maintenance – with 8 M3 screws securing the hex to the wheel at 32mm spacing, you can quickly replace a damaged hex without needing to remove your carefully glued tyres, saving significant time and money during intensive racing or bashing sessions. The package includes both 1/2" offset and zero offset hex adapters, providing complete geometry adjustment flexibility for dialling in your suspension geometry and handling characteristics perfectly.

Important Usage Notes
Please note that the Badlands MX38 HP tyres have a maximum speed rating that, if exceeded, could result in permanently damaging the internal belt. Over-revving your Badlands MX38 HP tyres could result in breaking the internal belt structure, which will not be covered under warranty. This damage can be caused by "diffing out" your tyres (spinning a tyre against the ground whilst the axle is stationary) or holding the throttle open while one, two or three of your tyres are stopped, which substantially increases the RPM sent to the free-spinning tyre or tyres and places excessive stress on the belted structure. For wet condition driving, it is recommended to put drainage holes in the tyres to release any trapped water, which can affect weight distribution and handling characteristics.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between belted and non-belted 3.8" tyres for RC monster trucks? — Belted tyres feature an internal herringbone weave pattern that prevents the tyre from ballooning or expanding at high speeds, maintaining consistent shape and geometry for improved control and stability. Non-belted tyres rely purely on the rubber compound and can expand under centrifugal force, changing your vehicle's handling characteristics unpredictably. For high-speed running and competitive use, belted tyres like the Badlands MX38 HP offer a significant performance advantage.
- Are these tyres suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. While the Badlands MX38 HP tyres are sophisticated products featuring advanced belted technology, they are pre-mounted on wheels and ready to install on any compatible 17mm hex RC monster truck platform. No tyre gluing or mounting is required – you simply attach them to your vehicle and enjoy. The pre-mounted configuration makes these ideal for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels, from absolute beginners to seasoned competitors.
- What vehicles are these tyres compatible with? — These pre-mounted wheels fit any 1/8 scale monster truck with 17mm hex axles, including popular platforms such as ARRMA KRATON 6S (all variants), Traxxas E-REVO 2.0, Traxxas SUMMIT, Tekno MT410, and other compatible monster truck models. Always verify your specific vehicle uses 17mm hexes before purchasing.
- What is the removable hex system and why is it useful? — The removable hex system uses eight M3 screws spaced 32mm apart to secure the hex to the wheel. This innovative design allows you to replace a damaged wheel hex without removing your carefully glued tyres, saving you time and money. When a hex gets damaged, you simply remove the eight screws and swap in a replacement hex (available separately as PRO634500) rather than discarding the entire tyre-and-wheel assembly.
- What tyre sizes come with these wheels? — The Badlands MX38 HP tyres measure 3.48" wide and 6.8" tall – this is the new size developed specifically for current-generation monster trucks like the E-REVO 2.0 and KRATON 6S.
- Can I use these tyres on different wheel designs? — These come pre-mounted on Pro-Line Raid 3.8" removable hex wheels with 17mm hex fittings. If you want to use just the tyres on different wheels, you would need to remove the tyres from these wheels and re-glue them, which requires tyre removal tools and professional technique.
- What hex offset options are included? — The package includes both 1/2" offset hex adapters and zero offset hex adapters, giving you complete flexibility to adjust your vehicle's geometry and suspension setup for optimal handling on your chosen terrain.
- What should I do if I damage a hex? — Rather than replacing the entire tyre-and-wheel assembly, you can simply remove the eight M3 screws securing the damaged hex and install a replacement hex (available separately). Replacement hexes for this system are listed as PRO634500.
- Are these tyres suitable for wet conditions? — Yes, the Badlands MX38 HP tyres perform well in mud and wet grass. However, Pro-Line recommends drilling drainage holes in the tyres to release any trapped water, which can affect weight distribution and handling characteristics if left inside.
- What does the M2 compound mean? — The M2 designation refers to the specific rubber compound formulation used in these tyres. This soft compound provides exceptional grip and traction across a wide variety of surfaces including loose dirt, mud, grass, and mixed terrain, without compromising durability for casual bashing.
