Technical Performance
The Associated CR12 Tioga Wheels represent precision engineering designed to deliver consistent performance on the track or field. As genuine Team Associated components, these wheels are manufactured using established production methods and materials that have proven themselves across countless racing platforms and casual RC applications worldwide. The CR12 Tioga platform itself is renowned for its balanced handling characteristics and reliable construction, and these wheels play a crucial role in maintaining that performance envelope. The black finish is applied to withstand the rigours of regular RC use, including exposure to dirt, water, grass and UV sunlight, without fading or degrading prematurely. The wheel design optimises weight distribution while maintaining structural integrity, which is essential for preserving the CR12 Tioga's handling balance and responsiveness. Whether you're running these wheels on grass, tarmac, indoor carpet or outdoor clay tracks, the consistent manufacturing standards ensure predictable behaviour and compatibility with your existing tyres and suspension setup. The neutral black colour also provides practical benefits during high-speed use, as it doesn't show dirt or wear marks as quickly as lighter colours, maintaining a factory-fresh appearance through an entire day of bashhing or racing.
