Key Features
- 6-Spoke Chrome Design — The distinctive 6-spoke wheel geometry provides an excellent balance between lightweight construction and structural rigidity, ensuring your wheels can handle the demands of aggressive driving whilst maintaining a polished, professional appearance that stands out on any RC monster truck.
- 1/2 Inch Offset — This carefully engineered offset geometry positions the wheels at the optimal distance from the chassis, improving weight distribution across the axles, enhancing suspension performance, and creating more predictable handling characteristics during both high-speed runs and technical terrain navigation.
- Chrome Finish — The premium chrome coating delivers a lustrous, mirror-like appearance that reflects light beautifully whilst also providing protective properties that resist corrosion and oxidation, ensuring your wheels maintain their stunning looks even after multiple bashings or racing sessions in varying conditions.
- 12mm Hex Fitment — The industry-standard 12mm hex connection ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 1/10 monster truck platforms available from manufacturers including Traxxas, HPI, Associated, Losi and many others, making these wheels a versatile upgrade option for any 1/10 scale collection.
- Sold as Pair — Each purchase includes two complete wheels, providing everything needed for a front or rear axle upgrade, or allowing customers to mix and match with existing wheels for custom colour combinations and visual personalisation.
- 5mm Axle Compatible — The wheels are precisely engineered to accommodate 5mm diameter axles, which is the standard specification across the majority of 1/10 monster truck designs, ensuring you won't need to source additional adapters or hex extensions.
Technical Performance
These Fastrax wheels represent quality engineering specifically designed for 1/10 monster truck applications. The 6-spoke design balances weight distribution with structural strength, critical factors that directly impact acceleration, braking response, and cornering capabilities. With a tyre diameter of 120.5mm and width of 69.4mm, these wheels are proportioned to provide optimal ground clearance whilst maintaining low rolling resistance characteristics. The 1/2 inch offset geometry is particularly important for monster truck performance; this positioning moves the wheels outward from the chassis centreline, which broadens the track width and improves stability during high-speed corners and rough terrain navigation. In the UK RC market, where both track racing and outdoor bashing are popular, this offset geometry provides the versatility needed for both applications. The chrome finish isn't merely aesthetic—it provides genuine corrosion protection that matters when you're running your RC monster truck through wet grass, muddy terrain, or after storage in damp conditions. The 12mm hex fitment has become the industry standard precisely because it works reliably across numerous platforms, and these wheels maintain that standard whilst adding premium aesthetics and proven performance characteristics that will enhance your RC driving experience whether you're competing at a local club event or enjoying casual weekend bashings.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels compatible with my 1/10 monster truck? — The Fastrax MT Arrow wheels are suitable for most 1/10 monster trucks featuring a 12mm hex fitment and 5mm axle specification. This covers the vast majority of popular platforms in the UK including Traxxas, HPI, Associated, Losi and many others. However, we recommend checking your specific model's specifications before ordering to confirm compatibility, particularly if you own a less common platform.
- What size are these wheels exactly? — These wheels feature a tyre diameter of 120.5mm and width of 69.4mm, which provides a size appropriate for realistic scaling on 1/10 monster trucks. The 1/2 inch offset positions them at the correct distance from the chassis to maintain proper suspension geometry and handling characteristics.
- Will the chrome finish last through aggressive bashing? — The chrome coating is durable and protective, but as with any exposed finish, aggressive impacts against rocks or kerbs may cause minor chips or scuffs. The protective properties remain effective even if minor cosmetic damage occurs. For maximum longevity, we recommend rinsing your wheels after outdoor use in wet conditions and storing your RC monster truck in a dry location.
- Can I use just one pair to upgrade my truck? — Yes, absolutely. You can install these wheels on either your front or rear axle, or purchase multiple pairs to equip all four wheels. Many RC enthusiasts mix offset configurations on front and rear axles to fine-tune handling characteristics, so one pair gives you plenty of flexibility for customisation.
- What's the difference between 1/2 offset and other offset options? — The offset measurement describes how far the wheel sits from the hub assembly. The 1/2 inch offset on these wheels is a proven configuration that provides optimal weight distribution and suspension geometry for 1/10 monster trucks. Other offset values (0mm, 3mm, 6mm, 9mm) move the wheels closer to or further from the chassis; the 1/2 inch offset represents a popular middle ground that works well across different driving styles and terrain types.
- Do I need bearings or additional parts? — These wheels are supplied as unmounted wheel rims. You'll need to have bearings and axle components already installed on your existing hubs, or ensure you have a compatible hub assembly. The wheels themselves mount directly onto your existing 12mm hex hub connections without requiring additional adapters.
