Made in the USA since 1982, every aspect of these tyres has been developed with the serious RC enthusiast in mind. The tread pattern, compound selection, and overall construction reflect decades of feedback from professional racers and dedicated hobbyists. Whether you're competing in local events or simply enjoying weekend crawling sessions, these tyres will help your vehicle perform at its best.
Key Features
- Extremely Aggressive Tread Design — The tread pattern features multiple sipes and multiple levels throughout each tread block, which work together to create incredible tread flex. This flexibility is critical in rock crawling, as it allows the tyre to conform to irregular rock surfaces and maintain contact even on challenging terrain, providing superior grip compared to tyres with simpler tread patterns.
- Legendary G8 Compound Material — Pro-Line's G8 material compound has been refined over years of real-world testing and competition use. This specific compound formulation provides the exact balance of grip, durability and consistency that rock crawlers need, ensuring your tyres perform reliably lap after lap and session after session.
- Highly Detailed Connected Side Tread — The sidewall tread is specifically designed to extend outward with connected patterns that optimise side-hilling performance. This means when you're scaling a rock face or traversing steep slopes, the tyre maintains traction on the side walls, only sliding when you want it to, giving you complete control over your rig's movement and positioning.
- Multiple Sipes and Tread Levels — Rather than a simple flat tread surface, each block contains multiple sipes (thin cuts) and operates at multiple depths. This engineering approach dramatically improves the tyre's ability to flex and adapt to uneven surfaces whilst maintaining structural integrity, a critical feature for rock racing applications where consistency is essential.
- Scale-Appropriate Appearance — Beyond performance, these tyres look fantastic on a scale rig. The detailed tread pattern and sidewall design give your vehicle an authentic, aggressive appearance that appeals to serious scale builders and crawlers who want their rigs to look as good as they perform.
- Foam Inserts Included — Each pair comes with foam inserts pre-installed, which provide essential support and consistency to the tyre structure. These inserts help maintain tyre shape during aggressive driving, prevent excessive flex in high-speed situations, and contribute to the overall performance consistency you need in competitive or challenging conditions.
- Made in the USA — Manufactured in America since 1982, Pro-Line tyres represent genuine American engineering and quality control. This heritage of US manufacturing means rigorous quality standards at every step of production, resulting in products that consistently meet the exacting demands of professional racers and serious hobbyists worldwide.
- Sold as a Pair — Each package contains two tyres, providing a complete front or rear axle set for your 1/10 scale rock crawler. This pairing approach ensures consistency across your vehicle and simplifies the purchasing process, as you're guaranteed matching performance characteristics on both sides of your rig.
Technical Performance
The Pro-Line Trencher G8 2.2 inch tyres represent the culmination of serious engineering focused specifically on rock crawling performance. Measuring 5.75 inches in height and 2.27 inches in width, these tyres have been dimensioned to fit 2.2 inch rock crawling wheels, making them compatible with a wide range of 1/10 scale crawler platforms popular across the UK RC market. The construction utilises Pro-Line's legendary G8 compound, a material formulation that has been refined through countless hours of real-world testing and professional competition use. This compound provides the optimal balance between grip and durability, ensuring that your tyres maintain consistent performance across varying rock types, moisture conditions and surface textures you're likely to encounter during actual crawling sessions.
The tread architecture is where these tyres truly shine in terms of engineering sophistication. Rather than employing a simple, basic tread pattern, Pro-Line has engineered a complex structure featuring multiple tread blocks, each containing multiple sipes and operating at different depths within the tyre structure. This multi-level approach creates a dramatically more flexible tyre that can conform to irregular rock surfaces whilst maintaining structural integrity and consistency. The highly detailed connected tread that extends onto the sidewalls provides exceptional side-hilling performance, allowing drivers to confidently traverse steep slopes and vertical rock faces with improved grip and traction. The foam inserts included with each pair provide crucial support and shape maintenance, preventing excessive deformation during aggressive driving whilst maintaining the precise tyre profile needed for optimal performance across different terrain types. Whether you're tackling shale, granite, packed dirt or mixed terrain, the Trencher G8's engineering approach delivers the performance and reliability that serious rock crawlers demand.

They measure 5.75 inches tall and 2.27 inches wide, making them compatible with any standard 2.2 inch wheel platform. If you're unsure whether your specific wheels will accommodate these tyres, you should verify the tyre fitment specifications for your particular wheel brand and model.
- Do I need to purchase foam inserts separately? — No, foam inserts are included with each pair of tyres and come pre-installed. These inserts provide essential support and consistency to the tyre structure, helping maintain performance and shape during aggressive driving. The inserts are an integral part of the tyre system and contribute significantly to the overall performance characteristics.
- What is the difference between these 2.2 inch tyres and other rock crawling tyre options? — The Trencher G8 features an exceptionally aggressive tread design with multiple sipes and multiple tread levels within each block, creating superior tread flex compared to simpler designs. The highly detailed connected sidewall tread provides optimised side-hilling performance that competitors often lack. Additionally, these tyres utilise Pro-Line's legendary G8 compound and benefit from Pro-Line's 40-year manufacturing heritage and 12 World Championships of professional racing experience, meaning the engineering and quality represent genuine competition-level performance.
- Are these tyres suitable for scale appearance rigs as well as performance crawlers? — Yes, one of the strengths of the Trencher G8 is that it satisfies both aesthetic and performance requirements. The detailed tread pattern and sidewall design look fantastic on scale rigs, providing an authentic aggressive appearance, whilst the engineering underneath delivers genuine rock crawling performance. This makes them ideal for builders who want their rigs to look excellent whilst also performing at a high level.
- How do I care for and maintain these tyres? — Like all RC tyres, these should be cleaned after use to remove dirt and debris that can affect performance. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV exposure can degrade rubber compounds over time. Inspect them regularly for wear and damage, and rotate or replace them when the tread becomes significantly worn or when sidewalls show signs of cracking or damage.
