Overview
The Fastrax 1.9in Heavy Weight Split 6-Spoke Aluminium Beadlock Wheels represent premium wheel engineering designed specifically for rock crawlers and serious RC enthusiasts who demand durability and authentic styling. These wheels are engineered for 1/10 scale RC cars and offer the kind of rugged performance you need whether you're tackling technical terrain in your garden, competing at the local RC club, or simply enjoying the hobby of remote control vehicles. If you're serious about RC car performance and want wheels that won't let you down when the terrain gets challenging, these Fastrax beadlock wheels are exactly what you need in your setup.
Built with genuine aluminium construction, these wheels feature a distinctive split 6-spoke design that combines lightweight efficiency with impressive strength. The beadlock design is particularly valued by rock crawler enthusiasts across the UK, as it provides secure tyre retention and that authentic off-road appearance that separates serious builds from basic setups. Available in a striking red colour, this four-wheel pack gives you a complete set ready to mount on your 1/10 scale crawler or rock crawling platform.
Whether you're upgrading from plastic wheels or replacing worn components on your existing RC crawler, these Fastrax wheels represent a significant step up in quality and performance. The heavyweight construction means these wheels are built to last through countless hours of bashing, crawling, and competitive use.
Key Features
- Genuine Aluminium Construction — The wheels are manufactured from quality aluminium rather than plastic, delivering superior strength and durability that can withstand the punishing terrain rock crawlers face, ensuring your investment lasts season after season.
- Beadlock Design — The beadlock system securely clamps the tyre to the wheel rim, preventing tyre rollover during aggressive cornering and crawling situations, which is essential for serious off-road RC car performance and gives you confidence in technical terrain.
- Split 6-Spoke Design — The distinctive six-spoke pattern provides an optimal balance between lightweight construction and structural rigidity, whilst also delivering that authentic off-road appearance that characterises modern rock crawling vehicles.
- Heavyweight Construction — These are not lightweight racing wheels; they're built with extra material and reinforcement to handle the stresses of crawling, bashing, and aggressive driving without cracking or bending.
- 12mm Hex Fitting — Compatible with the standard 12mm hex drive system used on most 1/10 scale rock crawlers and RC cars, making these wheels easy to fit to a wide range of compatible models across the UK RC market.
- Front and Rear Application — Designed for use in both front and rear positions, giving you complete flexibility in how you configure your RC crawler's wheel setup for optimal performance.
- Red Colour Option — The vibrant red finish provides excellent visual impact on your crawler, making your RC car stand out at the track or in photos, and these wheels come in a complete set of four.
Technical Performance
These Fastrax wheels represent serious engineering for 1/10 scale rock crawlers and comparable off-road vehicles. The heavyweight aluminium construction provides the structural integrity needed for demanding terrain, whilst the beadlock system ensures consistent tyre performance regardless of the punishment your RC car receives. The split 6-spoke design is optimised for rock crawling applications where weight distribution and tyre security are critical factors in performance. The 1.9-inch diameter is the standard size for 1/10 scale rock crawlers, offering the right ground clearance and scale appearance for authentic crawling platforms. With 12mm hex fittings, these wheels are compatible with virtually all modern 1/10 scale RC crawler platforms available in the UK market, including popular options from brands like Axial, Element, Traxxas, and many others. The aluminium material resists corrosion better than painted steel alternatives and maintains its appearance even after extended use in wet UK weather conditions. These wheels suit both casual weekend bashers and competitive rock crawling enthusiasts who demand equipment they can rely on.
