- Locating Features for Easier Screw Installation — Built-in alignment guides and screw hole locators ensure precise, hassle-free mounting onto your Pro-Spec V2 Bead Aluminium SM wheels, eliminating frustration with misalignment and making the installation process straightforward even for less experienced builders.
- No Hassle Alignment — The engineered design ensures perfect centring and alignment between the mounting sleeve and wheel every single time, meaning your tyres run true without wobble, vibration, or performance degradation that could affect your lap times or handling characteristics.
- Compatible with Pro-Line V2 Bead SM Tyres — These sleeves are specifically engineered to work seamlessly with the complete range of Pro-Line V2 Bead SM tyre compounds and profiles, giving you maximum flexibility in tyre selection for different track surfaces, weather conditions, and driving styles.
