Technical Performance
The Traxxas Center caps are engineered from quality chrome-plated material that resists corrosion and maintains its brilliant shine even after extended use in outdoor conditions typical of UK RC bashing and racing environments. The chrome plating is applied to a robust base material that ensures these caps won't crack, chip, or degrade under normal handling and driving conditions. The fit is precisely engineered to Traxxas specifications, meaning these caps seat securely onto the wheel hubs without wobbling, rattling, or coming loose during aggressive driving or high-speed cornering. The four-pack design ensures complete wheel coverage, giving your RC car a finished, professional appearance from every angle. Whether you're running your RC car on track surfaces, grass, gravel, or rough terrain, these chrome caps maintain their appearance and structural integrity thanks to Traxxas's commitment to quality materials and manufacturing. The included decal sheet opens up further customisation possibilities, allowing you to add your own graphics, team colours, or personal touches to create a truly unique look that reflects your style as an RC enthusiast.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do these centre caps fit all Traxxas RC cars? — These centre caps are specifically designed to work with Traxxas models that use the #8255A extended stub axle. Check your vehicle's compatibility with this axle type before purchasing. If you're unsure whether your RC car is compatible, contact RC Model Shop's expert team for confirmation.
- What's the difference between chrome and satin chrome centre caps? — Chrome centre caps feature a high-gloss, mirror-like finish that reflects light brilliantly and creates maximum visual impact, whilst satin chrome (such as the TRX8152) offers a more subtle, matte appearance. The choice depends on your personal aesthetic preference and the overall look you're going for with your RC car UK setup.
- Can I use these centre caps as direct replacements? — Yes, if your Traxxas RC car currently has centre caps fitted, the TRX8164 will replace them directly, provided you have the #8255A extended stub axle already installed. They're a genuine Traxxas replacement part designed for easy swap-out.
- Will these centre caps come loose during driving? — No, the precision engineering ensures these caps fit securely and won't rattle or come loose during normal driving, cornering, or aggressive bashing. The chrome-plated design doesn't degrade under stress, maintaining a tight fit throughout the life of the caps.
- What's the purpose of the included decal sheet? — The decal sheet allows you to customise your centre caps with authentic Traxxas graphics and designs. You can apply these decals to personalise your wheels and create a unique look that matches your RC car's colour scheme or personal preferences.
- Are these suitable for racing or just for show? — These centre caps are fully functional components designed for both everyday RC bashing and competitive racing. The chrome finish is durable enough to withstand regular use, and they have no negative impact on performance—they're purely aesthetic.
- How do I install these centre caps? — Installation is straightforward and requires no special tools. The caps simply press or click onto the wheel hubs fitted with the #8255A extended stub axle. Detailed instructions are typically included with the package.
