The combination of an aggressive tread pattern, multiple sipes for flex, and a super soft compound ensures that your rock crawling rig will have the traction and control needed to conquer challenging terrain with confidence.
Key Features
- Extremely Aggressive Tread Design — The Trencher Predator features an extremely aggressive tread pattern specifically optimised for rock racing rigs, providing maximum traction and bite on rough, rocky surfaces where standard tyres would struggle to maintain grip.
- Multiple Sipes and Multiple Tread Levels — Each tread block contains multiple sipes (thin grooves) and multiple levels for incredible tread flex, allowing the tyre to conform to uneven rock surfaces and maintain contact with the terrain for superior climbing performance and control.
- Connected Side Tread Design — Highly detailed connected tread on the sidewall extends outward for optimum side-hilling performance, providing the lateral grip needed when traversing angled terrain whilst only sliding out when intentionally controlled by the driver.
- Super Soft Predator Compound — Manufactured from Pro-Line's renowned super soft Predator compound, these tyres deliver enhanced grip and traction compared to harder compound alternatives, ensuring consistent performance across varying rock and soil conditions.
- Professional Dimensions (5.75 inch Tall x 2.27 inch Wide) — The generous 2.2 inch diameter provides authentic scale proportions for 1/10 rock crawling vehicles whilst maintaining the height and width necessary for effective traction and obstacle navigation.
- Foam Inserts Included — Each pair of Trencher Predator tyres comes complete with foam inserts, ensuring proper tyre shape maintenance, consistent performance and protection of the tyre structure during intense rock crawling sessions.
- Authentic Scale Appearance — The detailed, realistic tread pattern and sidewall design ensure that your rock crawling rig looks as impressive as it performs, maintaining visual authenticity alongside functional performance benefits.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line's established manufacturing heritage in the United States guarantees quality control, material consistency and support for RC enthusiasts who demand the best from their equipment.
Technical Performance
The Trencher Predator 2.2 inch rock crawling tyres represent a significant engineering achievement in 1/10 scale RC tyre design. At 5.75 inches tall and 2.27 inches wide, these tyres provide the optimal balance between authentic scale proportions and practical traction for serious rock crawling applications. The tyre construction features multiple independent design elements working in harmony: the aggressive primary tread pattern provides initial bite on rocks and hard-packed soil, whilst the multiple sipes throughout each tread block allow for micro-flexing that keeps rubber in contact with irregular surfaces. The connected sidewall tread extends the effective contact patch during aggressive side-hilling manoeuvres, critical for rock crawling vehicles navigating steep angled terrain. The super soft Predator compound has been specifically formulated to provide optimal grip at the temperatures and pressures typical of RC rock crawling, without sacrificing durability through extended use. The foam inserts maintain consistent tyre shape under load, preventing tyre roll-over and ensuring predictable handling characteristics whether you're performing low-speed technical climbs or faster rock racing passes. These tyres are sold in pairs unless otherwise noted, ensuring matched performance across both front and rear axles for balanced handling characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What makes the Trencher Predator better than other 2.2 inch rock crawling tyres? — The Trencher Predator combines an extremely aggressive tread pattern with multiple sipes and multiple tread levels for incredible flex, connected sidewall tread for side-hilling performance, and Pro-Line's renowned super soft Predator compound specifically formulated for rock crawling conditions. These elements work together to provide superior traction, control and durability compared to alternative options.
- Are these tyres suitable for beginners? — Yes, the Trencher Predator tyres are excellent for RC enthusiasts of all skill levels. Whilst they're designed for serious rock crawling applications, their forgiving nature and excellent traction make them suitable for newer drivers learning rock crawling techniques. The multiple sipes and flex design actually help beginners maintain control on challenging terrain.
- What vehicles are these tyres compatible with? — The Trencher Predator 2.2 inch tyres are compatible with any 1/10 scale rock crawling rig or rock racing vehicle that accepts 2.2 inch diameter tyres on front or rear wheels. They mount on standard 2.2 inch rock crawling wheel rims and are sized appropriately for scale crawler vehicles.
- Do these tyres come with wheels? — No, the Trencher Predator tyres are sold as tyres only and do not include wheels. You will need to have compatible 2.2 inch rock crawling wheels already installed on your vehicle, or purchase them separately to mount these tyres on.
- How do the foam inserts affect performance? — The included foam inserts are essential for optimal performance, maintaining consistent tyre shape under the cornering forces and impacts experienced during rock crawling. Without foam inserts, tyres can roll over on their sidewalls and lose grip. The foam ensures predictable handling and maximum traction throughout the session.
- What is the difference between the Trencher Predator and other Pro-Line Trencher options? — Pro-Line offers Trencher tyres in different sizes (including 1.9 inch alternatives) and compounds. The 2.2 inch Trencher Predator specifically features the super soft Predator compound optimised for rock crawling, making it ideal for vehicles where maximum grip and traction are priorities, whilst other Trencher variants may suit different driving styles or terrain conditions.
- Are these tyres weather-resistant and suitable for outdoor use? — Yes, the super soft Predator compound is designed to perform reliably in outdoor conditions typical of UK rock crawling venues. The rubber compound maintains consistent grip in varying temperatures and moisture conditions, though like all RC equipment, the tyres should be cleaned and dried after wet conditions to prevent component corrosion.
- How long do these tyres typically last? — Tyre lifespan depends on driving intensity, terrain tackled and maintenance practices. The durable Predator compound and robust tread design mean these tyres can handle extended use, though aggressive rock crawling will naturally wear the tread over time. Regularly cleaning and storing tyres in cool, dry conditions extends their usable lifespan.
