Technical Performance
The Associated Reflex 14B Narrow Wheels AS21549 represent precision engineering in RC wheel design. As genuine Team Associated components, these wheels are manufactured using the same quality control standards applied to all OEM Associated parts, ensuring dimensional accuracy, structural integrity and long-term durability. The narrow profile offers distinct performance characteristics compared to wider wheel options; narrow wheels typically reduce the overall rolling resistance in certain conditions whilst providing a more nimble handling response, making them particularly popular amongst RC enthusiasts who enjoy precision driving or who operate their vehicles on smoother surfaces. The black finish is applied through professional manufacturing processes that ensure colour consistency and resistance to the typical wear and tear experienced during regular RC car operation. The wheels are designed as direct bolt-on replacements for the Reflex 14B, which means no adjustment, modification or compatibility concerns — simply remove your damaged or worn wheels and install the AS21549 units. For RC car UK drivers managing multiple vehicles or maintaining a well-stocked spare parts collection, these wheels represent an economical way to ensure continuous operation without extended downtime. The engineering quality reflects Associated's reputation as one of the world's leading manufacturers of competition-grade and hobby-grade RC vehicles.
