Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/10 Mimic Truck Tyre Mounted Split-Spoke wheels represent a careful balance of engineering, durability and visual appeal. The split-spoke wheel design isn't merely aesthetic—the spoke architecture distributes impact loads evenly across the wheel structure, reducing the risk of cracking under aggressive driving conditions. The 2.8-inch diameter positions these wheels perfectly within the 1/10 truck class specifications, providing adequate ground clearance whilst maintaining the precise handling geometry that competition and recreational drivers demand. The 12mm hex fitting ensures a secure, wobble-free connection to your truck's hubs, critical for maintaining consistent steering response and predictable cornering behaviour. Whether you're driving across rough terrain, tackling jump lines, or running flat-out on a circuit track, these tyres deliver the grip and durability expected from Fastrax's engineering standards. The black powder-coated finish resists chipping and scuffing, maintaining that showroom appearance even after weeks of use. The tyre compound itself is engineered to perform across a wide temperature range, ensuring consistent traction whether you're driving in British summer conditions or cooler autumn weather. Pre-mounting eliminates assembly variables and guarantees perfect centring, which is essential for eliminating vibration and maintaining top-end stability.
