Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/10 Street/Drift Tyre 6-Spoke Wheel represents precision engineering designed specifically for on-road and drift RC driving. Constructed from high-quality materials, the wheel features a robust 6-spoke design that balances strength with minimal unsprung weight, ensuring responsive handling and quick directional changes essential for drift driving. The 6mm offset has been carefully calculated to position the tyre optimally within the wheel arch, improving cornering grip, reducing body roll and enhancing the overall stability of your RC car during aggressive driving. The 1.9-inch diameter sizing is ideal for 1/10 scale vehicles, delivering the perfect compromise between straight-line speed and cornering performance. The 12mm hex fitting ensures secure mounting with zero play, critical for maintaining precise steering control and preventing wobble at high speeds. The professional black finish is applied using durable powder-coat technology, providing excellent protection against the wear and tear of regular use, salt water exposure from coastal driving and the general demands of active RC hobby participation. These wheels are compatible with numerous leading 1/10 scale platforms including the FTX Banzai electric drift car, FTX Banzai nitro on-road street car and the FTX touring/drift chassis, as well as many other popular RC drift and street platforms available to UK enthusiasts.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels suitable for RC drift cars in the UK? — Yes, absolutely. These Fastrax wheels are specifically designed for drift and street driving applications on 1/10 scale RC cars. The 6-spoke design and 6mm offset geometry are optimised for the weight transfer and cornering characteristics required in drift driving, making them an excellent choice for dedicated drift enthusiasts and competitive drifters across the UK.
- What RC cars are these wheels compatible with? — These wheels feature a standard 12mm hex fitting and 1/10 scale sizing, making them compatible with a comprehensive range of on-road and drift platforms. Confirmed compatible vehicles include the FTX Banzai 1/10 scale electric 4WD RTR drift car (both green and red versions), the FTX Banzai Nitro 1/10 on-road street car (available in white and blue), and the FTX 1/10 touring/drift chassis roller. They will also fit many other 1/10 scale RC vehicles with matching 12mm hex hubs.
- Can I use these wheels on both front and rear axles? — Yes, these wheels are engineered for use in both front and rear positions, offering excellent versatility in your RC setup. You can upgrade all four corners with a single set of four wheels, or mix and match with other compatible wheels depending on your specific handling preferences and driving style.
- What is the wheel diameter? — These wheels have a 1.9-inch diameter, which is the standard sizing for 1/10 scale on-road and drift RC vehicles. This diameter provides the optimal balance of acceleration, top speed and cornering performance for street and drift driving at this scale.
- Do these wheels come ready to use? — These are wheels only (tyres are not included in this listing). To complete your setup, you will need matching 1.9-inch street or drift tyres that are compatible with 1/10 scale vehicles. Simply mount your existing or new tyres onto these rims, insert them into your RC car's hex hubs and tighten securely.
- What makes the 6mm offset important? — The 6mm offset is a precision specification that determines how the wheel sits relative to the suspension geometry. This offset optimises weight distribution, reduces oversteer/understeer bias, improves cornering grip and enhances overall handling predictability during drift and street driving. The correct offset geometry is critical for consistent, controllable RC car performance.
