Description
Rovan 5B Tires Dirt Buster Set of 4 Overview
The Rovan 5B Tires Dirt Buster tire and wheel combo delivers a complete mounted off-road setup built for aggressive traction, durability, and stable control on 1/5 scale Baja platforms. This genuine set includes two 170×80 rear tires and two 170×60 front tires pre-mounted on reinforced wheels with a 24mm hex interface for direct installation. As a result, you get dependable bite on loose surfaces while maintaining consistent handling through rough terrain.
The Dirt Buster tread pattern provides strong forward drive, predictable braking, and confident corner stability. In addition, the rubber compound helps resist chunking and uneven wear. Therefore, performance stays consistent during extended off-road sessions.
Off-Road Traction and Surface Control – Rovan 5B Tires
Rovan 5B Tires use a deep off-road tread layout designed to dig into dirt and loose terrain. Consequently, the tires maintain traction under throttle and stay composed under braking. As a result, the vehicle tracks cleaner through ruts and uneven sections.
The reinforced carcass supports heavy 1/5 scale vehicles and helps limit excessive sidewall flex. Therefore, the tires remain stable during cornering, landings, and repeated impact cycles.
Wheel Design and 24mm Hex Interface
The pre-mounted wheels use a 24mm hex hub design made for standard 1/5 scale Baja drivetrains. In addition, the reinforced wheel structure handles high rotational loads during acceleration and braking. As a result, torque transfers efficiently while helping reduce hub wear during aggressive use.
Pre-mounted construction also supports consistent balance and concentric alignment. Consequently, vibration stays minimal and steering response remains controlled at speed.
Fitment and Application – Rovan 5B Tires
This tire and wheel set fits standard Baja-style hubs using 24mm hex drive systems and supports staggered 170×80 rear and 170×60 front tire sizes. Therefore, the matched four-wheel configuration promotes balanced handling and predictable tracking across rough terrain.
All current Rofun 1/5 scale platforms, including LT, Baja-style buggies, trucks, and short course models, use a 24 mm wheel hex. However, a few 4×4 models such as the D5, F5, T5, and RF5 use a shallower axle thread and will only accept wheels with thinner center hubs. To run standard Baja-style wheels on these models, different wheel hubs must be installed.
Direct installation requires no modification when used on compatible Rofun platforms (360, 360A, 360C, 450, 450AG, 5B, 5T, 5SC, LT, WLT, BLT, Q360). As a result, setup remains quick and repeatable.
Materials and Performance Notes – Rovan 5B Tires
Rovan 5B Tires use a durable off-road rubber compound designed for traction and controlled wear on dirt and loose surfaces. In addition, the tread layout clears debris efficiently to maintain grip. As a result, the tires deliver stable control and consistent bite for racing, trail use, and aggressive off-road driving.
Maintenance and Run Prep
Inspect tires for cuts, confirm bead seating, and verify wheel hardware torque before each run. In addition, remove packed debris from the tread after driving. Therefore, the tires maintain consistent grip and stable rotation over time.
