Overview

The Fastrax 1:10 SC ZigZag Mounted 5-Spoke wheels in black represent a premium choice for short course truck enthusiasts across the UK. These professionally engineered wheels are specifically designed to complement the Traxxas Slash family of vehicles, including the 2WD, 4X4, and Blitz models, making them an ideal upgrade or replacement for anyone serious about their RC short course racing or bashing experience. Whether you're a seasoned competitor looking to optimise your setup or an enthusiast seeking to enhance your RC car's performance and appearance, these Fastrax wheels deliver the quality and compatibility you need.

Built with precision engineering and attention to detail, Fastrax has established itself as a trusted name in the RC hobby. These 5-spoke wheels combine lightweight construction with durability, ensuring they can handle the demanding requirements of short course truck racing. The distinctive ZigZag tread pattern on the mounted tyres provides excellent grip across a variety of track surfaces, from clay and dirt to indoor arena floors. For RC enthusiasts in the UK seeking high-quality wheel and tyre sets that won't let them down on race day or during weekend bashing sessions, this product represents genuine value and performance.

Sold as a pair, these wheels come pre-mounted with tyres, eliminating the need for separate tyre fitting and balancing. This ready-to-fit approach means you can have your short course truck back in action quickly, whether you're replacing worn tyres or trying a new setup for your next event. The robust 12mm hex fitment ensures secure mounting on all compatible vehicles, whilst the dual profile design—featuring a 2.2-inch outer diameter and 3.0-inch inner diameter—provides the exact fitment dimensions that Slash drivers depend upon.

Key Features

• Pre-Mounted and Ready to Fit — These wheels arrive with ZigZag pattern tyres already mounted, saving you the time and effort of separate installation and balancing, allowing you to get your RC short course truck ready to run in minutes rather than hours.
• 5-Spoke Wheel Design — The classic 5-spoke configuration provides an excellent balance between lightweight construction and structural rigidity, ensuring wheels maintain their integrity under the stresses of aggressive driving and high-speed cornering.
• ZigZag Tread Pattern — The innovative tread pattern has been engineered to deliver consistent grip across multiple surface types, whether you're racing on clay, dirt, asphalt, or indoor carpet surfaces, giving you confidence in varying track conditions.
• Dual Profile Construction — The 2.2-inch outer and 3.0-inch inner profile design creates optimal weight distribution and ensures proper fitment on short course trucks, maintaining the precise stance and handling characteristics your vehicle was engineered to deliver.
• Black Finish — The sleek black colour provides a professional race-ready appearance whilst hiding dirt and brake dust, keeping your RC car looking sharp between cleaning sessions.
• Universal Compatibility — Designed to fit most 1:10 short course trucks including Traxxas Slash 2WD, Slash 4X4, Blitz and other compatible vehicles, making these wheels a versatile upgrade option for multiple setups.
• 12mm Hex Fitment — The industry-standard 12mm hex connection ensures secure, wobble-free mounting and compatibility with the vast majority of short course truck axle systems available in the UK market.

Technical Performance

These Fastrax wheels demonstrate the engineering excellence that has made the brand a recognised choice among RC enthusiasts throughout the UK. The 1:10 scale dimensions have been precisely calculated to work harmoniously with short course truck suspension geometry, ensuring optimal ride height, weight transfer, and handling balance. The tyre width of 45mm provides a contact patch that delivers confidence-inspiring grip without creating excessive rolling resistance, whilst the 108.4mm tyre diameter maintains the correct speedometer calibration and gear ratio effectiveness. The dual profile design—with its 2.2-inch outer diameter and 3.0-inch inner diameter—creates a distinctive stepped look that reduces unsprung weight compared to traditional single-profile wheels. The ZigZag tread pattern features carefully calculated sipes and blocks that bite into surfaces aggressively whilst maintaining consistent wear characteristics across extended running sessions. Built with quality materials throughout, these wheels are engineered to withstand the lateral forces generated during cornering, the impacts associated with jumps and rough terrain, and the repetitive stress of competitive racing. The 12mm hex fitment provides a secure mechanical connection that eliminates play and ensures predictable handling response, critical for drivers who demand precision and reliability from their equipment.
