The Upgrade RC Micro Shield 1.0" Class 2 Micro Crawler Tires deliver a balanced blend of scale detail and dependable performance for micro crawler builds. These tires arrive with soft foam inserts and mount directly to 1.0-inch wheels, and the tread layout is engineered to maintain grip across varied terrain, giving small-scale rigs a confident and predictable feel.
About the Micro Shield Tires
Terrain-Focused Tread Design
The Micro Shield tread uses large lugs with deep sipes to maintain traction on rock, dirt, and uneven surfaces. A more widely spaced lug pattern helps the tire maintain consistent contact, supporting stability on rough rock faces and hard-packed soil. This layout gives micro crawlers a controlled, planted feel whether climbing, sidehilling, or navigating technical obstacles.
Enhanced Side Bite & Stability
Alternating side lugs along the tire's profile increase side bite when the tire leans into terrain. This added traction helps the vehicle stay composed during off-camber maneuvers and steep transitions. The design supports predictable handling, making it easier to maintain control in challenging micro crawler environments.
Ready-to-Mount Convenience
Each tire includes a soft foam insert that complements the tread's flexibility and terrain adaptation. The combination of foam and carcass shape ensures a balanced footprint that conforms well to obstacles. With straightforward mounting, these tires offer an easy upgrade path for improved performance.
