Key Features

• 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — Manufactured from premium aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminium, these wheels offer exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and durability that will withstand repeated high-impact wheelies and launches without deformation or failure.
• Hard Anodised Green Finish — The brilliant eye-catching green anodised finish provides both superior aesthetic appeal and protective corrosion resistance, keeping your wheels looking fresh and performing reliably in all weather conditions across the UK.
• Precision Ball Bearing System — Four 5x8x2.5mm ball bearings are integrated into the wheel assembly to reduce friction and increase rotational precision, ensuring smooth, consistent performance with minimal drag or wobbling during wheelstands.
• Durable Soft-Compound Tyres — The wheels are fitted with soft-compound tyres specifically engineered to reduce side-to-side movement, delivering stable and consistent wheelies that respond predictably to throttle input.
• Included O-Rings and Washers — Two O-rings and two 5x8x0.3mm washers are supplied with the package, providing secure retention and proper spacing to ensure correct installation and long-term reliability.
• Direct Compatibility with Major 2WD Models — These wheelie bar wheels are designed as genuine Traxxas accessories and fit perfectly on Rustler VXL, Bandit VXL, and Stampede VXL models, requiring no modifications or adapters for installation.

Technical Performance

These wheelie bar wheels represent the pinnacle of engineering precision for 2WD RC drag racing. Machined from tough 6061-T6 aluminium billet and finished with hard anodising in vibrant green, the wheels deliver exceptional durability whilst maintaining a lightweight profile that doesn't compromise the balance of your vehicle. The engineering excellence extends to the bearing system: four precision 5x8x2.5mm ball bearings are installed in each wheel assembly to minimise friction loss and maximise rotational efficiency. This precision bearing specification is critical for wheelie stability—any excess friction or play in the bearings will result in inconsistent wheelies and reduced control. The soft-compound tyre material is specifically formulated to grip the ground surface without excessive sideways movement, which is essential when attempting controlled wheelstands. The included washers (specified as 5x8x0.3mm) ensure proper spacing and load distribution across the bearing surfaces, whilst the two O-rings provide secure retention during aggressive driving. Together, these components create a system that allows your Traxxas 2WD truck to launch cleanly with the front wheels lifting predictably, making these wheels an ideal upgrade for drag racing, launch control testing, and wheelie demonstrations.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Which RC trucks are these wheelie bar wheels compatible with? — These wheels are genuine Traxxas accessories designed specifically for 2WD models including the Rustler VXL, Bandit VXL, and Stampede VXL. They install directly without any modifications needed to your vehicle.
• Do these wheels come already fitted to the wheelie bar assembly? — No, the wheels are supplied separately along with the bearing and fastening components. Installation is straightforward and takes just a few minutes if you have basic RC assembly experience.
• What makes 6061-T6 aluminium the right choice for wheelie bar wheels? — 6061-T6 is aerospace-grade aluminium known for its exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and reliability under repeated mechanical stress. This material choice ensures your wheels will maintain their shape and functionality through countless wheelies and launches without cracking or bending.
• Why are four separate ball bearings included with this kit? — The four ball bearings work together in the wheelie bar wheel assembly to provide smooth rotation and minimal friction. This is crucial for consistent wheelie performance, as any binding or resistance would cause unpredictable behaviour during launches.
• Are these wheels suitable for beginners to RC cars? — While these wheels are straightforward to install, they're primarily designed for users who want to explore advanced driving techniques like wheelies and drag-racing. Beginners would benefit from first becoming comfortable with basic driving before attempting wheelies, but the installation itself is simple enough for anyone with basic RC knowledge.
• Can I use these wheels on models other than the Rustler, Bandit, and Stampede? — Traxxas has engineered these wheels specifically for the VXL variants of these three 2WD models. Compatibility with other models cannot be guaranteed, so we recommend confirming fitment before purchasing if you have a different Traxxas truck.
