• Optimised 1/2 Offset Geometry — This specific wheel offset measurement is precisely calculated to deliver the ideal stance and weight distribution for stadium truck racing, improving suspension geometry and tyre contact patch for superior handling and stability through corners.
• 99.5mm Diameter and 52mm Width — These precise dimensions provide the right balance between ground clearance and aerodynamic profile, engineered specifically for 1/10 scale stadium truck and short course applications where responsive handling is paramount.
• 12mm Hex Fitment — The industry-standard 12mm hex connection ensures perfect compatibility with the vast majority of 1/10 scale RC trucks, buggies and truggies currently available in the UK market, providing flexibility if you decide to use these wheels on multiple vehicles.
• Professional Black Finish — The smart black colour scheme maintains an aggressive, professional appearance while also hiding dirt and brake dust between races, keeping your RC truck looking show-ready even during extended racing sessions.

Technical Performance

The Louise RC ST-Rocket wheels represent a careful engineering balance between performance, durability and value. Measuring 99.5mm in diameter with a 52mm tyre width, these wheels have been developed to deliver optimal ground clearance and contact patch geometry for 1/10 scale stadium trucks and short course racing vehicles. The soft rubber compound is formulated to bite into track surfaces with exceptional grip characteristics, particularly valuable during competitive racing where fractions of a second can determine your finishing position. The 1/2 inch offset (approximately 12.7mm) positions the wheel face relative to the mounting hub in a way that optimises your vehicle's stance, suspension geometry and overall handling balance—a specification that Louise RC has carefully selected through extensive development and testing with leading RC racing drivers. The pre-glued construction with factory-installed foam inserts eliminates variables in wheel preparation, ensuring consistency between sets and removing one potential source of performance variation. These wheels are supplied as a pair (two wheels), perfect for upgrading either the front or rear axle of your 1/10 scale RC truck, or as part of a complete four-wheel upgrade when purchasing multiple sets. The 12mm hex interface is the industry standard for 1/10 scale RC vehicles, providing secure mechanical connection while remaining compatible with the vast majority of drive shafts and wheel adaptors currently in use across the UK RC hobby.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these wheels suitable for both on-road and off-road RC racing? — These wheels are specifically engineered for 1/10 scale stadium truck and short course racing applications, which typically take place on mixed-surface tracks featuring both tarmac and dirt sections. The soft compound formula excels in these conditions by providing maximum grip on hard surfaces whilst maintaining traction on looser terrain, making them equally at home on a technical course as they are during high-speed flat-track sessions.
• Will these Louise RC wheels fit my Traxxas RC truck? — Yes, the 12mm hex fitment means these wheels are compatible with a wide range of 1/10 scale Traxxas vehicles including the Stampede, Rustler and Monster Jam models. The specification list confirms compatibility with both 2WD and 4WD versions of these popular platforms, as well as other major brands. Always verify your vehicle's hex size before ordering if you're uncertain.
• Do I need to glue the tyres to the wheels myself? — No, these tyres arrive pre-glued to the wheels from the factory, eliminating the need for tyre glue and significantly reducing your setup time. The inserts are also pre-installed, meaning you can mount these wheels directly to your vehicle's hex drives immediately upon receipt. This saves money on consumables and ensures consistent glue quality across the entire assembly.
• What does the 1/2 offset mean and why does it matter? — The 1/2 inch (approximately 12.7mm) offset describes how far the wheel mounting face sits in relation to the wheel's centreline. This specific measurement affects your vehicle's track width, suspension geometry and overall handling characteristics. Louise RC has selected this offset based on extensive testing to deliver optimal performance for stadium truck racing, improving cornering stability and tyre contact patch.
• Can I use these wheels on the front and rear of my RC truck? — Yes, these wheels are supplied as a pair and can be used on either axle. Many drivers purchase multiple sets to maintain fresh wheels throughout the season or to run different compounds front and rear for fine-tuned handling. The ST-Rocket design works equally well on both front and rear axles of compatible vehicles.
• What is the difference between soft, medium and hard compound RC tyres? — Tyre compound refers to the rubber hardness: soft compounds offer maximum grip and are ideal for cooler conditions and competitive racing where traction is paramount, medium compounds provide balanced grip and durability for all-round use, and hard compounds excel in high-grip conditions and offer extended tyre life. These ST-Rocket wheels feature soft compound tyres, making them the premium choice for serious competitors prioritising grip over longevity.
• How often will I need to replace these tyres? — Tyre lifespan depends heavily on your driving style, track surface conditions and maintenance practices. Competitive racers may replace tyres every few race meetings, whilst casual bashers might enjoy hundreds of running hours from a single set. The soft compound will eventually harden with UV exposure and heat cycles, affecting grip performance—a sign that replacement is advisable for maintaining consistent lap times.
