Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels suitable for my Traxxas RC vehicle? — These TRX6478 wheels are designed for 1/7 scale 4WD Traxxas models with front axle mounting. Check your vehicle's specifications and documentation to confirm compatibility with your particular model before ordering, as different scales and drive systems require different wheel fitments.
- What is the 17mm hex mounting system? — The 17mm hex adaptor is the connection interface between your RC vehicle's front hubs and the wheel itself. This industry-standard sizing allows you to attach and remove wheels without additional adaptor hardware, making wheel changes quick and straightforward during maintenance or tyre swaps.
- Will these wheels fit my other RC cars? — These wheels are specifically engineered for 1/7 scale vehicles with 17mm hex hubs. They will not fit other scales or vehicles with different mounting systems (such as 12mm hex or 14mm hex adapters) without additional modifications, so always verify your vehicle's specifications before purchasing.
- What tyres fit these wheels? — Whilst this product is wheels only, you can fit compatible 1/7 scale tyres designed for split-spoke wheels. Contact RC Model Shop for tyre recommendations that suit your driving style, whether racing, bashing, or off-road driving.
- How do I maintain these wheels? — Keep your split-spoke wheels clean after each driving session using warm soapy water and a soft brush to remove mud and debris. The black chrome finish resists corrosion, but regular cleaning prevents salt accumulation in outdoor environments and maintains their premium appearance for years of reliable use.
- Are these genuine Traxxas products? — Yes, RC Model Shop is an authorised Traxxas retailer, and all Traxxas products including these TRX6478 wheels are genuine factory-manufactured components with full Traxxas warranty coverage and quality guarantees.
