The Redcat Racing RER42131 is a "plug-and-play" wheel and tire set designed specifically for the Ascent-18 Apex. These competition-grade tires are factory-mounted and glued to 1.3" black beadlock-style wheels, eliminating the hassle of DIY assembly.
Vehicle Compatibility
These are the standard factory tires for the Apex edition and serve as a high-performance upgrade for other 1/18 scale models:
-
Ascent-18 Apex (Original replacement)
-
Ascent-18 / Scout II (Significant performance upgrade; note that the 1.3" size may require body trimming or the RER42128 wide rear axle for clearance)
Key Features
-
Oversized Performance: The 1.3" format helps the vehicle bridge gaps between rocks and roll over obstacles that would snag smaller tires.
-
Super Soft Compound: Specifically engineered to provide maximum grip on smooth rock surfaces, wood indoor courses, and technical outdoor trails.
-
Pre-Mounted Convenience: Arrives professionally glued to the wheels, ensuring the tire stays seated even under the high torque of brushless motors.
-
Black Composite Wheels: The 1.3" wheels feature a clean, multi-spoke design that complements the competition-style look of the Apex chassis.
