Key Features
- 1/10 Scale Buggy Wheels — These wheels are specifically sized for 1/10 scale RC buggies, ensuring perfect fitment and proportional appearance on your vehicle, which is crucial for both performance and aesthetics in the competitive UK RC market.
- 12mm Hex Connection — The standard 12mm hexagonal mounting system ensures compatibility with the FTX Vantage platform and most modern 1/10 scale buggies, providing a secure and reliable connection that won't slip or move during hard driving.
- 2.2 Inch Diameter — The 2.2-inch wheel diameter is the industry standard for 1/10 scale buggies, offering the perfect balance between acceleration, top speed, and ground clearance for varied terrain and racing conditions.
- Pack of Two — This pack contains two wheels, meaning you can replace both front wheels or use them as part of a full wheel set upgrade across your vehicle for matched performance and handling characteristics.
- White Colour Finish — The clean white finish provides excellent visibility during racing, helps you track your vehicle easily across the course, and looks stunning in photographs and videos of your RC sessions.
- Buggy-Specific Design — These wheels are engineered specifically for off-road buggy use, with an appropriate design that suits the suspension geometry and driving dynamics of the FTX Vantage rather than being generic wheels.

Technical Performance
The FTX Vantage Front Buggy Wheel represents quality engineering designed for 1/10 scale off-road RC buggy racing and recreational use. With a 2.2-inch diameter, these wheels meet the standard specification for 1/10 scale buggies, providing optimal performance across a range of driving conditions from carpet racing to outdoor dirt tracks. The 12mm hex mounting system is the industry standard for 1/10 scale vehicles, ensuring compatibility not only with the FTX Vantage 2.0 brushed buggy but also with other vehicles using standard 12mm hex hubs. The white finish is applied to resist dirt staining and maintain visibility, though the actual tyre characteristics and grip levels will depend on the tyres you mount onto these wheels. These wheels are manufactured to strict tolerances, ensuring balanced rotation and consistent handling performance throughout your racing season. Whether you're running on carpet tracks, clay circuits, or outdoor terrain, the wheel diameter and offset are optimised for the Vantage chassis geometry to deliver predictable handling and maximum speed potential.
