Overview
This is a pair of Toyo® Proxes R888R™ 42/100 2.9" S3 (Soft) Street BELTED Tires Mounted on Spectre wheels. Pro-Line is proud to announce a partnership with one of the leading performance tire manufacturers - Toyo Tires! This collaboration begins with our first tire for the popular ARRMA® 1/7 Street Bash line of vehicles - the Toyo Proxes R888R.
All the details from the full-size high-performance competition tire have been recreated to give your Infraction™ or Limitless™ the ultimate in scale looks, street performance, and long-lasting wear. The Proxes R888R is known for extreme grip, cornering, and braking stability in the full-scale world on track, and it's no different in the RC world as these tires will transform the handling of your car or truck. The large tread blocks on the outside tread maximize lateral grip while the wide center rib improves directional stability for all-out speed runs. A High-Performance herringbone weave pattern Belt reinforces the inside of the Proxes for high-speed runs, while our S3 compound provides long-lasting tire wear.
Now from Pro-Line is the Spectre 10-spoke wheel. Inspired by 1:1 GT3 racing wheels, the Spectre gives your Infraction™, Felony™ or Limitless™ a striking new look with a satin gunmetal finish and amazing scale detailing. The Proxes/Spectre combo comes pre-mounted so you don't have to worry about gluing your tires and waiting for them to dry. Get maximum grip and stability so you can be faster than your buddies with Pro-Line's Toyo Proxes R888R BELTED street tires!
Also available in 53/107 2.9" size, for the rear of your ARRMA® Felony™. (PRO1020010)
Please note these tires have a maximum speed rating that, if exceeded, could result in permanently damaging the internal belt. For the Proxes 42/100 tires that is 100 mph or about 8500 RPM. Over-revving your 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.
Please note: All tires & wheels are sold in pairs, unless otherwise noted

Key Features
- Licensed Toyo® Proxes R888R™ Design — These tyres feature the authentic scale replica of the legendary high-performance Toyo Proxes R888R track tyre, bringing genuine automotive engineering credibility to your RC vehicle and ensuring you're running on a tyre design proven in full-scale competition.
- Pro-Line S3 Long-Wear Rubber Compound — The soft S3 compound formula delivers maximum grip during cornering and acceleration whilst providing exceptional durability and long-lasting wear, meaning you'll get more running time before needing replacements and consistently predictable handling throughout the tyre's lifespan.
- Optimised Tread Pattern for Maximum Grip — Large tread blocks on the outside edges of the tyre maximise lateral grip for aggressive cornering, whilst the wide centre rib improves directional stability during high-speed runs, giving you confidence whether you're pushing for pace or cruising at speed.
- High-Performance Herringbone Weave Belted Construction — The internal reinforcement belt features a high-performance herringbone weave pattern that strengthens the tyre structure during high-speed runs, protecting against deformation and maintaining consistent shape and contact patch even under extreme driving conditions.
- Pre-Mounted and Ready to Use — Both tyres come professionally mounted on the wheels, eliminating the need for tyre gluing and the associated waiting time for adhesive to cure, allowing you to get straight to driving your RC car UK without delays.
- GT3-Inspired Spectre 10-Spoke Wheels — The wheel design draws direct inspiration from genuine 1:1 GT3 racing machines, delivering striking visual authenticity with scale detailing that elevates the overall appearance of your ARRMA vehicle.
- Satin Gunmetal Finish — The distinctive satin gunmetal colour provides a premium, professional appearance that complements both modern and classic RC vehicle designs, with a sophisticated finish that stands out from standard wheel options.
- Made in the USA — These tyres are proudly manufactured in the United States, ensuring quality control and consistency that meets Pro-Line's exacting standards.
- 17mm Hex Fitting — The wheels feature a standard 17mm hex fitting, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of ARRMA 1/7 street bash vehicles including the Infraction, Felony and Limitless models.
- Genuine Performance Upgrade — These aren't cosmetic additions; the engineering genuinely improves your vehicle's handling characteristics, delivering noticeable improvements in grip, cornering performance and overall driving dynamics that competitive drivers will immediately appreciate.
Technical Performance
The Toyo Proxes R888R tyres represent a significant step forward in RC street performance tyre technology. Built on authentic automotive engineering principles, the 42/100 sizing (indicating a 42mm width and 100mm section height) provides an optimal footprint for 1/7 scale street bash vehicles. The S3 soft rubber compound strikes a crucial balance between maximum grip and durability, offering aggressive performance characteristics while resisting rapid wear that would otherwise require constant replacement. The herringbone weave belt reinforcement is engineered specifically to maintain tyre integrity during high-speed runs, with a maximum speed rating of 100 mph (approximately 8500 RPM) — exceeding this rating can cause permanent internal belt damage. The 2.9 inch overall diameter ensures proper fitment and handling characteristics across ARRMA's 1/7 street bash range. The Spectre wheel design incorporates closed-cell insert material, which provides structural rigidity and maintains consistent performance across varying driving conditions. Together, these components create a tyre and wheel package that genuinely improves directional stability, lateral grip and cornering performance, making these an essential upgrade for drivers seeking competitive advantage or simply wanting to experience their RC vehicle's true potential.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What ARRMA vehicles are these Pro-Line Toyo Proxes tyres compatible with? — These 42/100 2.9 inch tyres are specifically engineered for the ARRMA Infraction 6S BLX (both Silver and Blue variants), the ARRMA Felony 6S BLX (both Orange and Black variants), and the ARRMA 1/7 Limitless V2 Speed Bash Roller. The 17mm hex fitting ensures precise fitment on these models. If you're running an ARRMA Felony and want rear tyres, Pro-Line also manufactures a 53/107 2.9 inch variant (part number PRO1020010) specifically for that application.
- Are these Toyo Proxes tyres suitable for UK bashers and track users? — Absolutely. These tyres are designed for street and all-road surfaces, making them ideal for UK RC enthusiasts who use a mix of tarmac, concrete and urban surfaces. The performance-oriented design delivers exceptional handling on smooth track surfaces whilst maintaining controlled grip on less predictable terrain. Whether you're a serious competitor or a weekend basher, the consistent performance of the S3 compound means you'll have predictable, responsive handling characteristics that help you push harder with confidence.
- What is the maximum speed rating for these Proxes tyres? — The Toyo Proxes R888R 42/100 tyres have a maximum safe speed rating of 100 mph (approximately 8500 RPM). Exceeding this speed can cause permanent damage to the internal herringbone weave belt, which would not be covered under warranty. It's essential to respect this limit, particularly if you're running high-powered setups. Damage caused by overrevving (such as from diffing out tyres or holding full throttle whilst some wheels are stationary) is explicitly not covered by Pro-Line's warranty.
- Why is the 17mm Spectre wheel the right choice for my RC car? — The Spectre wheel is engineered as the perfect partner to these tyres, offering authentic GT3-inspired aesthetics combined with proven performance characteristics. The 10-spoke design isn't just visually striking; it provides structural rigidity where it matters whilst minimising rotational mass. The satin gunmetal finish is durable and sophisticated, and the closed-cell insert material ensures consistent performance over time. Combined with the Proxes tyres, the Spectre wheel delivers both visual appeal and genuine functional improvements to your vehicle's handling.
- What makes Pro-Line's partnership with Toyo Tires special for RC enthusiasts? — Toyo Tires is one of the world's most respected tyre manufacturers for high-performance vehicles. This collaboration brings genuine automotive-grade engineering principles to RC tyres, rather than simply creating generic rubber solutions. Every detail of the full-size Proxes R888R competition tyre has been faithfully replicated in RC scale, including the distinctive tread pattern, compound characteristics and belt reinforcement. This means you're not just buying RC tyres; you're buying authentic performance engineering from a company with decades of automotive excellence.
- How does the S3 soft compound compare to harder tyre compounds? — The S3 soft compound offers maximum grip and immediate responsiveness, making it the optimal choice for drivers prioritising handling performance and cornering speed. Softer compounds typically provide better initial bite and feel more connected to the track, which is why they're favoured for competitive driving. The trade-off is that soft compounds naturally wear faster than harder alternatives, but Pro-Line has engineered the S3 specifically for long-lasting wear, providing a practical balance between performance and durability for regular users.
- Can I use these tyres on surfaces other than street/tarmac? — These are designated as street and all-road tyres, meaning they're designed primarily for smooth surfaces like tarmac and concrete but can handle a variety of urban terrain. They're not optimised for loose surfaces like dirt or gravel, where dedicated all-terrain compounds would perform better. For dedicated off-road usage, you'd want to consider Pro-Line's other tyre options. However, for mixed UK urban and track driving, these Proxes are genuinely versatile.
- Why are these tyres pre-mounted and what are the advantages? — Pre-mounting saves you the frustration and mess of tyre gluing, eliminates the need to wait for adhesive to cure (which can take 24 hours or more), and ensures professional mounting that guarantees optimal tyre seating on the wheel. This means you can simply unbox them, fit them to your vehicle and drive immediately. For serious drivers, pre-mounted tyres also guarantee consistent wheel-to-tyre fitment that amateur gluing cannot always achieve.
