Key Features
- 12mm Hex Fitment with 5mm Axles — The 12mm hex connection ensures a secure and reliable fit on compatible models, reducing the risk of wheel slippage during hard driving. The 5mm axle specification is engineered to provide maximum compatibility with Traxxas and HPI platforms commonly used throughout the UK RC community.
- Jigsaw Tyre Pattern — The distinctive Jigsaw tread design has been specifically engineered to provide excellent traction and grip across multiple surface types, from loose gravel and dirt to hardened surfaces. This versatile tyre pattern helps maintain control during cornering and acceleration, which is essential for both casual drivers and competitive RC enthusiasts.
- 8-Spoke Black Wheel Design — The aesthetic appeal of the glossy black 8-spoke wheels complements the modern styling of contemporary RC trucks. Beyond appearance, the 8-spoke design distributes stress evenly across the wheel structure, enhancing durability and longevity during extended driving sessions.
- Sold as a Pair — This product includes two complete mounted wheel and tyre assemblies, providing excellent value and ensuring you have a matched set for optimal performance and visual consistency across your model.
- Multi-Model Compatibility — These wheels are engineered to work with 1/16th Traxxas Revo (Front and Rear), 1/16th Traxxas Summit, HPI Savage XS Flux, and 1/10th Buggy Rear applications, making them a versatile upgrade option for owners of multiple models.
- Front and Rear Positioning — The universal design allows these wheels to be used in both front and rear positions on compatible models, providing flexibility in your setup and allowing you to upgrade your entire wheel set if desired.
Technical Performance
These Fastrax 1:16 Jigsaw mounted wheels represent a perfect balance of performance engineering and practical value. The 90mm tyre diameter combined with the 43.5mm tyre width provides the ideal contact patch for maintaining traction whilst managing weight distribution across your RC model. The wheel design incorporates quality materials and precision manufacturing to withstand the stresses of high-speed driving, hard cornering, and rough terrain. Real-world testing by UK RC enthusiasts has confirmed that these wheels perform exceptionally well on the Traxxas E-Revo VXL 1/16 brushless monster truck, maintaining structural integrity even during aggressive bashing sessions. The Jigsaw tyre compound delivers consistent grip across varied conditions, which is particularly valuable if you drive your RC model at different venues or on mixed terrain surfaces. The 12mm hex fitment ensures compatibility with standard Traxxas and HPI axles, though it should be noted that when fitting to Savage models, the centre of the wheel will require drilling to suit the specific hex specification of that platform. This level of technical precision and attention to detail is what distinguishes Fastrax components in the competitive UK RC market.
