Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels compatible with my Losi LMT 2.0 monster truck? — Yes, these 2.6 inch wheels with beadlock rings are designed as direct replacements for the Losi LMT 2.0 platform. They are compatible with the Grave Digger RTR, the SonUva Digger RTR, and the Grave Digger Bundle variants, making them suitable if you own any standard LMT 2.0 model.
- What is a beadlock ring and why does it matter on an RC wheel? — A beadlock ring is a mechanical feature that holds the tyre bead firmly against the wheel rim, preventing the tyre from separating or sliding on the wheel during aggressive cornering, high-speed driving, or impacts. This is especially important on monster trucks where lateral forces are extreme, ensuring your tyres remain seated and your driving remains predictable and safe.
- Do I need to buy tyres separately? — Yes, these wheels are supplied without tyres mounted. You will need to source appropriate 2.6 inch tyres separately and mount them to these wheels. Many RC enthusiasts prefer to choose their own tyre compound and tread pattern based on their specific driving surface and style, so this modular approach offers flexibility.
- What is the difference between composite and metal wheels? — Composite wheels are lighter weight, more forgiving of impacts, and more cost-effective, making them ideal for recreational bashing and general use. Metal wheels are heavier, more durable under extreme conditions, and preferred for competition racing. For the LMT 2.0, composite wheels like these offer the ideal balance of performance and affordability for most driving scenarios.
- Can I use these wheels on other Losi vehicles? — The 2.6 inch size with beadlock rings is specifically engineered for the LMT 2.0 platform. Whilst the physical diameter might fit other vehicles, we recommend only using these wheels on compatible LMT 2.0 models to ensure proper fitment, handling characteristics, and safety. Consult the vehicle manual or our expert team if you are unsure about compatibility.
- Are these wheels suitable for high-speed bashing? — Yes, the composite beadlock construction is specifically designed to handle the demands of high-speed off-road driving, providing tyre security and consistent performance even during aggressive manoeuvres, rapid acceleration, and hard cornering.
