Technical Performance
The Pro-Line Badlands MX57 represents a significant advancement in large-scale RC tyre technology, engineered specifically for vehicles like the Traxxas X-Maxx and ARRMA Kraton 8S that demand uncompromising performance. The tyre compound has been formulated to provide exceptional grip on all terrain types whilst resisting the tyre ballooning that can occur when running at high speeds – a common problem with other large-scale tyres that can make handling unpredictable and dangerous. The Raid 5.7" wheel is manufactured from high-strength DuPont nylon, a premium engineering polymer chosen for its ability to absorb impacts whilst maintaining structural rigidity through the interlocking 8x48 hex design. The wheel features M3 hardware spaced 48mm across, providing redundancy that ensures even if one screw fails, the wheel remains securely attached. The overall weight saving of approximately 20% compared to the previous generation MX43 is achieved through clever engineering of the Raid wheel design, reducing unsprung mass at each corner of your vehicle and improving acceleration, deceleration and handling response. The aggressive knobby tread pattern is inspired by modern motocross tyre design, with deeper sipes and wider contact patches that distribute load more effectively and maintain consistent grip even when the tyres are being worked hard. For UK-based RC enthusiasts running brushless 8S monster trucks and crawlers, these tyres are designed to handle the power outputs of modern systems, maintaining their shape and grip characteristics even when pushed to their limits. The removable hex system adds practical versatility – the included 24mm hexes fit both Kraton 8S and X-Maxx vehicles, and the ability to replace damaged hexes separately means you can keep your favourite tyres in service for longer.
