The FMS 11001 Wheel Assembly represents solid engineering designed to handle the demands of 1:10 scale RC driving. Built from quality materials that match the OEM specification, this wheel assembly is engineered to provide consistent performance whether you're driving on carpet, tarmac, grass or light off-road terrain.
