Key Features
- Chrome Finish — The polished chrome plating gives these beadlock rings a professional, eye-catching appearance that will make your RC sand car stand out on any track or at any RC club meeting in the UK. The reflective chrome surface not only looks incredible but also provides corrosion resistance to protect against the elements.
- 3.9" Diameter — These rings are specifically sized at 3.9 inches to perfectly match Traxxas Pro Scale Sand Car wheels, ensuring a secure fit that requires no modifications or adjustments. The precise engineering means they will work with stock rear Sand Car wheels without any compatibility issues.
- Beadlock Design — The beadlock mechanism physically clamps the tyre bead to the wheel rim, preventing tyre slip and debeading during high-speed cornering, aggressive acceleration, and extreme off-road driving conditions. This is a critical feature for anyone who pushes their RC car hard and wants total wheel security.
- Sold as a Pair — You receive two complete beadlock rings, providing everything you need to upgrade both rear wheels of your sand car. This means consistent performance and appearance across the rear axle without purchasing multiple kits.
- Genuine Traxxas Component — These rings are authentic Traxxas parts engineered to exact specifications, ensuring they work seamlessly with your Traxxas sand car chassis and suspension system without any fitment issues or compromises.
- Easy Installation — Designed for straightforward mounting on stock sand car wheels, these beadlock rings can be installed quickly without requiring special tools or technical expertise, making them perfect for weekend maintenance and upgrades.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas Beadlock rings represent a significant upgrade in wheel technology for your RC sand car. Built with precision engineering, the chrome-finished steel construction provides exceptional durability whilst maintaining a lightweight profile that won't negatively impact your vehicle's handling characteristics. The beadlock mechanism works by applying radial clamping force around the tyre bead, which is the critical point where the tyre connects to the wheel rim. This prevents the tyre from shifting or rolling off the wheel during cornering loads and acceleration forces that can reach multiple Gs in high-performance RC driving. For Pro Scale Sand Cars, which are designed to replicate the real-world engineering and appearance of full-size desert racing vehicles, having proper beadlock rings is essential for both authenticity and performance. The 3.9" size is specifically engineered to work with Traxxas sand car wheel systems, providing a perfect interference fit that requires no spacers, shims, or adaptations. The chrome finish is applied through a multi-step electroplating process that ensures adhesion and longevity, meaning these rings will maintain their brilliant appearance even after extensive use in dusty, sandy environments. Whether you're running on tracks, in sandboxes, or in natural terrain, these beadlock rings will keep your tyres secure and your sand car looking showroom-fresh.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these beadlock rings fit my Traxxas sand car? — Yes, these 3.9" beadlock rings are specifically engineered for Traxxas Pro Scale Sand Cars and are designed to fit stock rear Sand Car wheels. The Traxxas product engineering ensures perfect compatibility with your existing chassis and suspension system without any modifications required.
- Do I need beadlock rings for my RC sand car? — Beadlock rings are highly recommended for any serious RC sand car driver, especially if you enjoy high-speed driving or aggressive cornering. They prevent your tyres from rolling off the rim during extreme driving conditions, which is particularly important in sandy or loose terrain where ground contact can be unpredictable. If you're looking for both reliability and authentic scale appearance, beadlock rings are an essential upgrade.
- Can I use these on the front wheels as well? — These rings are specifically designed for rear wheels. Traxxas manufactures separate front beadlock ring kits, so it's important to purchase the correct set for your intended application. Using rear rings on the front wheels may result in fitment issues.
- How do I install beadlock rings on my sand car? — Installation involves removing your existing wheels, positioning the beadlock ring over the tyre bead, and then fastening the ring to the wheel using the provided hardware. Most RC enthusiasts can complete the installation in minutes using basic RC tools. If you're unsure about the process, RC Model Shop staff can provide guidance.
- Will the chrome finish wear off with heavy use? — The chrome finish on Traxxas beadlock rings is applied through an electroplating process that provides excellent durability. Whilst normal use in sandy and dusty environments won't remove the chrome coating, extreme abrasion or impacts might eventually wear the finish in specific spots. The rings will continue to function perfectly even if minor finish wear occurs over extended use.
- What makes Traxxas beadlock rings better than aftermarket alternatives? — Traxxas beadlock rings are engineered specifically for Traxxas vehicles, ensuring perfect fitment and performance. They're manufactured to precise tolerances using quality materials and finishes that match the engineering standards of genuine Traxxas components. When you buy genuine Traxxas parts from an authorised retailer like RC Model Shop, you're guaranteed compatibility and reliability.
