MEUS RACING Super Soft Silicone Rubber Inserts for 1.3" RC Crawler Tires (Rose Red) - 68-72mm OD
These MEUS RACING silicone rubber inserts are designed for 1.3-inch RC crawler tires with an outer diameter of 68-72mm and width of 25-29mm, such as the MEUS MS6 MPRO pin tires (#1302). They are made from high-quality silicone rubber that resists water and temperature changes, making them suitable for outdoor crawling. The asymmetric structure provides extra sidewall support to reduce twisting under load, while the wave pattern and uneven inner/outer density help the tire deform properly for improved grip. Available in a super soft compound (rose red) for maximum traction on technical terrain.
How do these inserts improve RC crawler performance?
The asymmetric design of these inserts adds stiffness to the sidewalls, which reduces unwanted tire twist during turns or on uneven surfaces. The wave pattern on the surface guides the tire's deformation, helping it conform to rocks and roots for better contact. Additionally, the uneven density—dense inner and sparse outer—encourages the tire to flex in a controlled manner, increasing the contact patch and grip without sacrificing support.
Two compound options
You can choose between two silicone compounds: the super soft (rose red) or a slightly firmer soft compound (orange). The rose red super soft version prioritizes maximum grip on loose or wet surfaces, making it ideal for technical crawling where traction is critical.

Frequently asked questions
What tire sizes do these inserts fit?
They fit 1.3-inch tires with an outer diameter between 68-72mm and a width of 25-29mm. They are compatible with tires like the MEUS MS6 MPRO pin tires (#1302).
What is the difference between the super soft and soft compound?
The super soft (rose red) compound is softer for maximum grip on challenging terrain, while the soft (orange) compound is slightly firmer for a balance of grip and stability. Choose based on your driving style and surface conditions.
Are these inserts waterproof?
Yes, the silicone rubber material is naturally water-resistant and also withstands temperature variations, making them suitable for wet or muddy conditions.
