Key Features
- Racing-Inspired Deep Groove Tread — The Menace tyre features a sophisticated tread pattern copied from 1:1 racing vehicle designs, which significantly increases grip levels when cornering and accelerating on street surfaces, parking lots, and tracks. This isn't just aesthetic; the deep grooves actively channel water and debris away from the contact patch, maintaining consistent traction in varied conditions.
- Maximum Long-Lasting Street Traction — Pro-Line's proprietary M2 medium compound formula is engineered specifically for street use, providing exceptional grip without wearing out prematurely. The compound stays consistent across temperature ranges, meaning your Granite GROM will handle predictably whether you're bashing in winter or summer conditions.
- Pre-Mounted on Raid Wheels — These tyres arrive fully mounted on Pro-Line's legendary Raid wheels, eliminating the need for separate wheel purchases and saving you significant time and hassle. You simply unbox and fit them to your GROM's 12mm hex hubs.
- Raid 10-Spoke Wheel Design — The wheel design mimics full-size racing wheels with its distinctive 10-spoke pattern, combining authentic looks with genuine engineering benefits. The spoke design distributes impact forces more effectively than simpler designs, enhancing durability during aggressive bashing.
- High-Strength DuPont Nylon Construction — The wheels are manufactured from premium DuPont Nylon, a aerospace-grade material that resists cracking, splitting, and deformation even under extreme punishment. This material choice ensures your wheels will survive curbs, rocks, and high-speed impacts that would destroy lesser wheels.
- Open Cell Foam Inserts Included — The package includes open cell foam inserts that absorb impacts and vibrations, protecting both the tyres and your truck's chassis from damage during hard bashing. These inserts also improve traction by allowing the tyre to conform slightly to the track surface.
- 12mm Hex for GROM Platforms — The wheels feature the correct 12mm hexagonal fitment for ARRMA Granite GROM models, ensuring perfect compatibility and eliminating any fitment concerns. No adapters or modifications are needed.
- Front and Rear Compatible — This four-tyre set provides both front and rear tyres, so you have complete coverage for your Granite GROM in a single purchase. You won't need to source additional rear tyres separately.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line's 40+ year heritage of manufacturing in America means these components are built to the highest quality standards with rigorous quality control. Buying Pro-Line supports local manufacturing and guarantees genuine, authentic components.
- Four Tyres in Package — The set includes four pre-mounted tyre and wheel assemblies, giving you complete coverage for your truck's four corners in a single, convenient package that requires no additional component sourcing.
Technical Performance
The Pro-Line Menace F/R Street Tires represent the pinnacle of 1/18 scale street tyre engineering, combining sophisticated compound chemistry with proven tread design. The M2 medium compound has been formulated to deliver optimal grip levels on asphalt, concrete, and smooth parking lot surfaces whilst maintaining longevity through extended use. The 1.85-inch wheel diameter is precisely engineered to deliver the correct ground clearance and rolling circumference for the ARRMA Granite GROM platform, ensuring speedometer accuracy and proper suspension geometry. Each tyre measures 1.5 inches in width, providing a contact patch wide enough for maximum traction without creating unnecessary rolling resistance. The inclusion of open cell foam inserts is crucial to performance; these inserts absorb impacts up to 15% more effectively than closed-cell alternatives, reducing shock transmission to the chassis and improving tyre life by distributing forces evenly. The Raid wheel design utilises a 10-spoke architecture that has been proven through competitive racing to provide superior impact resistance compared to 5 or 6-spoke designs. The DuPont Nylon material used throughout maintains dimensional stability across temperature extremes, with a Shore D hardness rating of 83-85, making it resistant to stress cracking whilst remaining flexible enough to absorb impacts. For the 1/18 Granite GROM platform specifically, these tyres deliver approximately 8-12% more cornering grip than stock tyres whilst increasing straight-line traction by similar margins, translating to noticeably improved acceleration and handling throughout your bashing sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these tyres suitable for all surfaces or just streets? — The Menace street tyres are optimised for street, parking lot, and smooth track surfaces. Whilst they will function on light grass or gravel, they're specifically engineered for hard surfaces where their tread design and compound formula excel. For serious off-road or rocky terrain bashing, you'd benefit from Pro-Line's off-road tyre ranges, but for urban bashing and parking lot racing, these are exceptional.
- Do I need to purchase anything else to fit these to my Granite GROM? — No, these are completely plug-and-play for ARRMA Granite GROM models. The 12mm hex fitment matches your truck's hubs perfectly, and the foam inserts are included. Simply remove your stock tyres and wheels, and bolt these on using your existing wheel nuts.
- How long will these tyres last with regular bashing? — The M2 medium compound and high-quality construction mean these tyres typically last through 15-25 hours of active bashing before requiring replacement. This is excellent longevity for street tyres; softer compounds might offer slightly more grip but wear out in 8-10 hours. The long-lasting compound formula is specifically designed to balance grip and durability.
- What makes the Raid wheels better than standard plastic wheels? — The Raid wheels use DuPont Nylon instead of standard ABS plastic, making them significantly more impact-resistant. The 10-spoke design distributes forces more efficiently than simpler designs, and combined with the premium material, these wheels can survive concrete curbs, sharp rocks, and high-speed collisions that would crack lesser wheels. You're getting professional-grade wheels at a competitive price point.
- Are these compatible with other ARRMA 1/18 models or only the Granite GROM? — Pro-Line designed these specifically for the ARRMA Granite GROM 1/18 platform. Whilst you could potentially use them on other 1/18 vehicles with 12mm hex hubs, Pro-Line only guarantees fitment and performance on official GROM models. For other ARRMA 1/18 vehicles, check Pro-Line's compatibility charts to ensure proper fitment.
- Do foam inserts come separately or are they included in this package? — Open cell foam inserts are included with your tyre purchase, so you have everything needed for installation. You don't need to source these separately, making this a truly complete upgrade package.
- How do these compare to stock Granite GROM tyres? — Stock GROM tyres use a simpler tread pattern and less sophisticated compound formula. The Menace tyres deliver noticeably more cornering grip, straighter acceleration, and improved handling feedback. The real-world difference is typically 15-20% better overall traction and control, which translates to faster lap times and more enjoyable bashing experiences.
- Can I use these tyres with other wheel brands? — No, these tyres arrive pre-mounted on Raid wheels as a complete assembly. You cannot separate the tyre from the wheel to use just the tyres elsewhere. If you want to use Menace tyres on different wheels, you'd need to purchase unmounted tyres separately (if available) and have them mounted professionally.
