Key Features
- CrushLock Bead-Pinching Design — These wheels literally crush the tyre beads together and narrow up your 2.6" tyres, which is essential for achieving extreme mud performance at 1/10 scale. This bead-pinching technology replicates full-size mudding techniques, improving traction and reducing tyre slip in soft, muddy terrain where standard wheels would simply dig and bog down.
- Authentic Full-Size Mudding Technology — CrushLock wheels are a proven upgrade in full-size mudding circles, and Pro-Line has successfully translated this real-world technology to RC scale. This means you're getting proven engineering rather than speculative design, making these wheels a smart investment for serious mud truck enthusiasts in the UK.
- Perfect Compatibility with Interco Black Mamba Tyres — These wheels pair perfectly with Pro-Line's licensed Interco Black Mamba 2.6" Mud Tyres (PRO1018100), creating a complete mud-ready package that delivers ultimate mud flinging performance. This pairing ensures optimal geometry and performance for maximum mud truck capability.
- Innovative 6x30 Removable Hex System — The wheels feature Pro-Line's proprietary 6x30 removable hex system, which allows for multiple hex size and offset options (sold separately). This modularity means you can fine-tune your setup for different driving conditions and vehicle platforms without needing multiple wheel sets, offering excellent value and flexibility for RC enthusiasts.
- 12mm Wide and Narrow Hexes Included as Standard — Both wide and narrow 12mm hexes come included in the box, giving you setup flexibility straight out of the package. This eliminates the need for additional purchases and allows you to experiment with different track widths and handling characteristics immediately upon installation.
- Super-Tough Black Nylon Material — Manufactured from super-tough black nylon, these wheels provide excellent durability and impact resistance during off-road adventures. The black nylon finish matches the authentic mudding aesthetic while providing real-world durability for weekend bashing and competitive RC crawler events.
- Made in the USA Since 1982 — Pro-Line's heritage dating back to 1982 means these wheels benefit from four decades of RC and mudding expertise. Manufacturing in the USA ensures quality control and consistency that benefits UK RC enthusiasts looking for reliable, professional-grade equipment.
- Suitable for Front and Rear Use — These wheels are designed as universal front/rear wheels for 1/10 scale mud trucks with 12mm hex connections, simplifying your purchasing decision and ensuring consistent performance across your vehicle's axles.
- Complete Bead-Loc System Included — The package includes Vice CrushLock Black Bead-Loc Rings that work in conjunction with the wheel design to lock the tyre bead in place, preventing bead slip during aggressive driving and maintaining consistent tyre fit and performance even when running low pressures or through extreme terrain.
Technical Performance
The Vice CrushLock 2.6" wheels represent a significant engineering achievement in translating full-size mudding technology to 1/10 scale RC platforms. Measuring 3.75 inches (95mm) in height and 0.75 inches (19mm) in width, these wheels provide the right proportions for authentic mud truck scale appearance whilst delivering genuine performance improvements. The construction from super-tough black nylon ensures these wheels can withstand the demanding conditions of mud truck driving, including impacts with rocks, logs, and other trail obstacles. The wheels feature integrated bead-loc design with separate black bead-loc rings (four pieces included), which work together to pinch and narrow the tyre bead when mounted. This engineering allows 2.6" tyres to compress and narrow during use, which is the key advantage over conventional wheels. The 12mm hex fitting ensures compatibility with standard 1/10 scale crawler and mud truck platforms, whilst the included 6x30 removable hex system with both wide and narrow 12mm options provides exceptional setup flexibility. The mounting hardware package includes 24 pieces of M3 x 12mm socket head cap screws, providing secure attachment and allowing for tool-free quick changes between wide and narrow hex configurations. For UK RC enthusiasts seeking to optimise mud truck performance, these wheels deliver measurable improvements in traction, reduced tyre slip, and enhanced mud flinging capability compared to standard wheels.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the CrushLock wheel design and how does it improve mud truck performance? — The CrushLock design features wheels that literally crush the tyre beads together and narrow up 2.6" tyres when mounted. This bead-pinching technology is a proven full-size mudding upgrade that reduces tyre slip in soft terrain, improves traction through mud, and enables better weight distribution and grip compared to conventional wheels. The effect is particularly noticeable when driving through mud, where the narrowed tyre profile allows the vehicle to maintain momentum and climb obstacles more effectively.
- What tyres should I use with the Vice CrushLock 2.6" wheels? — Pro-Line specifically recommends their licensed Interco Black Mamba 2.6" Mud Tyres (PRO1018100) for use with these wheels. This pairing delivers the ultimate in mud flinging performance and ensures optimal geometry and compatibility. Whilst other 2.6" tyres may physically fit, the Black Mamba tyres are engineered to work in conjunction with the CrushLock design for maximum effectiveness.
- Are these wheels suitable for beginners, or do they require advanced RC experience? — Whilst the Vice CrushLock wheels represent a performance upgrade more suited to dedicated mud truck enthusiasts rather than absolute beginners, installation is straightforward using standard hex drivers and the included M3 x 12mm mounting hardware. Beginners with basic mechanical skills can install these wheels; however, the real benefit of the CrushLock technology is appreciated most by experienced drivers who understand mud truck setup and performance optimisation. If you're new to RC mud trucking in the UK, these wheels represent an excellent long-term investment as your driving skills and truck setup develop.
- What hex size do these wheels fit, and what flexibility does the 6x30 removable hex system provide? — These wheels come with 12mm hex fittings and include both wide and narrow 12mm hex adapters in the box. The innovative 6x30 removable hex system allows you to purchase additional hex sizes and offset options separately, enabling precise fine-tuning of your vehicle's track width, handling characteristics, and performance for different terrain conditions. This modularity means you're not locked into a single setup and can adapt your wheels to evolving vehicle development or experimental builds.
- How many pieces are included in this package? — The package includes 2 Vice CrushLock 2.6" wheels, 4 black bead-loc rings, 24 M3 x 12mm socket head cap screws, and both wide and narrow 12mm hex adapters as standard. Everything needed for initial installation on a 1/10 scale mud truck with 12mm hex sockets is included; no additional hardware purchases are required to get started.
- Are these wheels suitable for front and rear use? — Yes, these wheels are designed as universal front and rear wheels for 1/10 scale mud trucks with 12mm hex connections. You can use them interchangeably across your vehicle, though some experienced builders may prefer specific offsets or hex widths for front versus rear to fine-tune handling — this is where the removable hex system flexibility becomes valuable.
- What material are these wheels made from, and how durable are they for RC mud trucking? — The wheels are manufactured from super-tough black nylon, providing excellent impact resistance and durability during off-road driving. Nylon wheels are proven in RC scale to withstand the stresses of mud trucking, rock crawling, and trail driving. The manufacturing heritage of Pro-Line since 1982 means these wheels benefit from decades of material testing and real-world field experience.
- How do the included bead-loc rings work with the CrushLock design? — The four black bead-loc rings included in the package work in conjunction with the wheel's integrated CrushLock design to lock the tyre bead in place and prevent bead slip during aggressive driving. This is particularly important when running low tyre pressures or driving through extreme terrain where conventional wheels might experience bead movement. The combined system ensures consistent tyre fit and performance throughout your driving session.
