If you're building or upgrading a ready to run RC truggy or are looking for replacement wheels that offer exceptional value and proven performance, the Fastrax Eagle Mounted 5-Spoke wheels deliver on all fronts. The 0mm offset geometry is a critical specification for many truggy platforms, ensuring proper fitment and handling characteristics that won't compromise your vehicle's performance on track or off-road terrain.
Key Features
- 5-Spoke Design — The classic 5-spoke wheel pattern provides an excellent balance between structural rigidity and lightweight construction, which is essential for maintaining responsive handling and minimising unsprung weight on your 1/8 scale off-road truggy.
- Black Chrome Finish — The black chrome coating delivers a premium, professional appearance whilst providing protection against corrosion and damage from the elements, ensuring your wheels maintain their aesthetics through multiple sessions.
- Pre-Mounted Tyres — These wheels arrive ready to fit with tyres already mounted, eliminating the need for tyre mounting tools or additional setup time, allowing you to get your truggy running immediately.
- 0mm Offset Geometry — The zero offset specification is crucial for maintaining factory-intended handling characteristics and ensuring compatibility with standard 1/8 truggy suspension geometry without binding or clearance issues.
- 17mm Hex Adaptors — The 17mm hex fitment is the industry standard for 1/8 scale off-road truggy applications, ensuring broad compatibility across multiple platforms from leading manufacturers.
- Pair Configuration — Sold as a matching pair, these wheels are perfectly suited for front and rear mounting on your 1/8 truggy, providing uniform appearance and performance characteristics across all four corners of your vehicle.
- Off-Road Truggy Specific Design — Engineered specifically for 1/8 off-road truggy racing and bashing, these wheels have been optimised for the unique demands of truggy suspension geometry and high-performance off-road driving.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/8 Truggy Eagle wheels represent a carefully engineered balance of performance, durability and value. With a tyre diameter of 136.5mm and width of 65mm, these wheels provide the rolling diameter and contact patch essential for maintaining traction across varied terrain whilst minimising rotational inertia for responsive acceleration and deceleration. The 5-spoke construction utilises robust engineering principles to distribute loads efficiently, reducing stress concentrations that can lead to premature failure during demanding truggy racing or high-speed bashing sessions. The black chrome finish isn't merely cosmetic; it provides a protective coating that resists corrosion from moisture, road salt and the debris encountered during off-road driving. These wheels are engineered to work seamlessly with 1/8 scale truggy suspension systems, where proper offset and hex fitment are critical to maintaining alignment and preventing binding or clearance issues. The 17mm hex adaptor specification ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 1/8 truggy platforms, whether you're running a Traxxas platform, Team Losi, Mugen or other recognised manufacturers. The pre-mounted tyres mean the engineering has already been completed by the factory, guaranteeing proper balance and tyre fitting that maintains handling consistency from the moment you install them on your vehicle.
