Key Features
- Pre-Mounted and Pre-Glued Design — These wheels arrive fully assembled with tyres already glued in place, meaning you can install them directly onto your 1/10 scale RC drift car without requiring additional adhesive, tools, or assembly time, saving you valuable setup hours before your next drifting session.
- Hard-Compound Plastic Tyres — The tough hard-compound tyre material provides exceptional durability whilst delivering the precise breakaway characteristics essential for consistent drifting, making these tyres tough enough to handle carpet, concrete, and even asphalt surfaces without premature wear.
- Orange Split-Spoke Wheel Design — The distinctive split-spoke wheel pattern in vibrant orange not only delivers striking visual appeal but also provides excellent structural integrity and lightweight construction that reduces unsprung weight for improved handling and responsiveness during tight drift manoeuvres.

- 12mm Hex Fitting — Universal 12mm hex fitment ensures compatibility with standard 1/10 scale drift car hubs, allowing straightforward installation and easy wheel changes without requiring additional adapters or modifications to your chassis.
- 26mm Wheel Width — The 26mm width provides a wide stance that enhances stability during high-speed drift entries and exits whilst maintaining the precise steering response needed for technical drift courses, giving you confidence in every manoeuvre.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas TRX8376A drift wheels represent engineering excellence in 1/10 scale drifting. The hard-compound plastic tyre material has been specifically formulated to deliver the ultimate combination of durability and drifting performance across diverse surfaces including carpet, concrete, and asphalt. Unlike soft-compound tyres that may wear quickly or offer excessive grip, these hard-compound units maintain consistent performance throughout multiple drifting sessions, translating to lower consumables costs and more predictable handling characteristics. The pre-glued construction ensures perfect bead sealing and eliminates the variability that can occur when hand-gluing wheels, guaranteeing consistent performance from day one. The 26mm width provides a wide, stable platform whilst the 1.9-inch diameter optimises the rolling circumference for balanced weight distribution and precise steering response. The split-spoke wheel design combines lightweight construction with exceptional structural rigidity, meaning less flex during aggressive cornering and more precise feedback through the steering. The 12mm hex fitment integrates with industry-standard 1/10 scale hubs, making installation straightforward on compatible Traxxas drift platforms and compatible aftermarket chassis. Whether you're running carpet competitions indoors or outdoor concrete and asphalt surfaces, these wheels deliver the responsive, predictable handling that separates competitive drifters from casual bashers.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels pre-glued and ready to install immediately? — Yes, these drift wheels arrive completely pre-assembled with tyres already glued to the rims, allowing you to install them directly onto your 1/10 scale RC drift car without requiring adhesive, additional tools, or time-consuming assembly. This ready-to-run approach makes them ideal for competitive drifters who want to focus on driving rather than wheel preparation.
- What surfaces are these hard-compound tyres suitable for? — The hard-compound plastic tyres are engineered to handle multiple surfaces including indoor carpet competitions, outdoor concrete tracks, and asphalt surfaces, making them versatile enough for diverse drifting environments whilst maintaining consistent performance and minimising tyre wear across varying terrain types.
- What scale and vehicle type are these wheels designed for? — These are specifically designed for 1/10 scale RC drift cars and come with 12mm hex fitment compatible with Traxxas 1/10 scale drift platforms and other standard 1/10 scale chassis using industry-standard hex hubs.
- Do I need to buy rear wheels separately? — Yes, this product contains only front drift wheels. You will need to purchase the corresponding rear drift wheels separately to complete your drifting setup, allowing you to tailor front and rear tyre combinations based on your preferred drifting style and track conditions.
- What is the difference between these hard-compound tyres and soft-compound alternatives? — Hard-compound tyres offer superior durability and longevity compared to soft-compound alternatives, which means less frequent tyre replacement and lower consumables costs over time. Hard-compound tyres also provide more consistent performance across multiple sessions and more predictable breakaway characteristics, making them ideal for competitive drifters seeking reliable, repeatable handling.
- Are these wheels compatible with non-Traxxas 1/10 scale drift platforms? — The universal 12mm hex fitment means these wheels are compatible with most 1/10 scale drift chassis that use standard hex hubs, though you should verify that your specific platform uses 12mm hex mounting to ensure perfect fitment without requiring adapters.
- How many wheels do I need to complete my drift car? — Drift cars typically use four wheels total. This pack supplies two front wheels, so you'll need to purchase a matching pair of rear drift wheels to complete your setup, allowing balanced handling and optimised performance across all four corners of your chassis.
