Overview
Transform your Axial SCX24 micro crawler with the RC Overhaul Hex Wheel Weights in black brass. These aren't just another set of wheel weights — they're a complete styling and performance upgrade that will have your mini rock crawler looking and handling like a competition-grade vehicle. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast exploring the world of micro crawlers, a weekend basher enjoying high-angle trails, or someone new to the RC hobby in the UK discovering the incredible potential of 1/24 scale rock crawling, these hex wheel weights deliver genuine performance benefits alongside stunning visual appeal.
Available at RC Model Shop, these disc brake-style wheel hex drives are engineered to enhance both the aesthetics and the handling characteristics of your SCX24. The addition of carefully distributed weight at each corner transforms how your micro crawler behaves on technical terrain, whilst the distinctive brass finish with removable black paint creates a custom, planted appearance that sets your vehicle apart. For UK RC enthusiasts looking to upgrade their crawler setup, these weights represent an affordable yet effective modification that addresses two critical aspects of RC vehicle performance: weight distribution and visual impact.
Each set includes four precision-crafted hex wheel weights alongside extended wheel nuts that not only secure the weights but also increase your vehicle's overall width for enhanced stability. The combination of improved weight distribution, increased track width, and custom aesthetic appeal makes this one of the most practical and visually rewarding upgrades available for the SCX24 platform across the UK RC market.
Key Features
- Black Brass Disc Brake-Style Design — These hex wheel weights feature a distinctive black brass construction with disc brake-style detailing that immediately upgrades the visual appeal of your SCX24, giving it a more refined, custom-built appearance that rivals much larger RC vehicles.
- Removable Paint Detailing for Custom Look — The black paint applied within the disc brake grooves can be carefully removed to reveal the brass underneath, allowing you to personalise the appearance further and create an even more dynamic, competition-spec finish on your micro crawler.
- Optimised Weight Distribution at Each Corner — Each hex wheel weight contributes approximately 12g of mass at its corner position, providing roughly 48g of total weight addition to your SCX24, which significantly improves stability and control when tackling high-angled trails and technical rock crawling terrain.
- Extended Wheel Nuts Included — The supplied extended wheel nuts don't just secure the weights; they also increase the overall width of your vehicle by approximately 8mm, expanding the track width for better cornering stability and a more planted, confident feel over uneven ground.
- Enhanced Handling on Steep Technical Lines — The low-mounted additional mass creates a lower centre of gravity, which is absolutely critical when navigating high-angled trails and steep technical rock crawling courses, giving you that optimum safe feel that serious SCX24 enthusiasts demand.
- Universal SCX24 Compatibility — These weights are engineered specifically for the Axial 1/24 SCX24 platform, making them compatible with every SCX24 model including the Jeep Wrangler JLU, Chevrolet C10 trucks, Lexus GX 470, Base Camp, Ford Bronco, Toyota 4Runner, and Deadbolt variants.
- Durable Brass Construction — The use of high-quality brass as the primary material ensures longevity and durability, resisting corrosion and maintaining its appearance through extended use in outdoor RC crawling environments across the UK.
- Set of Four for Complete Coverage — You receive a matched set of four identical wheel weights, ensuring balanced weight distribution across all four corners of your micro crawler for predictable, controlled handling characteristics.
Technical Performance
The RCO Hex Wheel Weights represent sophisticated engineering in micro-scale RC crawling. The black brass construction provides the ideal balance between durability and weight, with each unit contributing precisely 12g at its respective corner position. This brings the total weight addition to approximately 48g, which is a significant and meaningful quantity when working with micro crawler platforms where every gram affects performance. The extended wheel nuts accompanying the set increase track width by around 8mm, which translates directly to improved lateral stability during high-angle climbs and technical rock crawling situations. The disc brake-style hex design isn't merely cosmetic — the grooved pattern actually reduces rotating mass slightly whilst creating a distinctive appearance that distinguishes competition-grade micro crawlers from stock configurations. Installation is straightforward, as these weights are designed as a direct fit for the Axial SCX24 platform without requiring modification or additional components. The brass material offers excellent corrosion resistance, making these weights suitable for use in the variable UK climate, whether you're crawling wet terrain after rainfall or exploring dusty rocky courses. The finished surface treatment provides an attractive appearance straight from the box, and the removable black paint within the grooves allows you to customise the look further, revealing the underlying brass for a two-tone effect that appeals to enthusiasts who value both performance and aesthetics in their RC builds.
