RC Model Shop is proud to stock these OEM components as part of our comprehensive range of RC4WD spares and upgrades for scale rigs.

Key Features

• Genuine OEM RC4WD Design — These wheels are official original equipment manufacturer components from RC4WD, meaning they are engineered to exact factory specifications and guaranteed to fit and perform perfectly on compatible RC4WD platforms, eliminating any compatibility concerns that might arise with aftermarket alternatives.
• Authentic Beadlock Styling — The beadlock design features realistic scale detailing that replicates genuine off-road racing wheels, providing exceptional visual authenticity that transforms the appearance of your 1/24 scale RC vehicle and makes it look like a true miniature replica of a real rock crawler or trail rig.
• Precision Plastic Construction — Manufactured from ABS plastic using professional injection moulding techniques, these wheels combine lightweight construction with durability and consistency, ensuring that all four wheels perform identically and maintain their shape under the demands of scale trail driving and crawling.
• Compact 0.7" Scale Diameter — Measuring 0.76 inches in outer diameter with a 0.39-inch width, these wheels are perfectly proportioned for 1/24 scale vehicles, ensuring that your RC crawler maintains realistic proportions and visual balance rather than looking out of proportion with oversized wheels.
• Negative Offset Engineering — The 0.09-inch (2.5mm) negative offset is engineered specifically for scale accuracy, positioning the wheel correctly relative to the vehicle body to match the stance and geometry of real off-road vehicles, enhancing both appearance and handling characteristics.
• Ultralight Weight Specification — Each wheel weighs just 0.05 ounces (1.7 grams), keeping overall vehicle weight to an absolute minimum, which improves suspension response, climbing ability and battery runtime on your RC scale rig.
• Included Hex Bolt Tool — Every set includes a miniature scale hex bolt tool designed for M1.6 scale bolts with a 1.5mm hex size, allowing you to install and adjust the wheels with precision without requiring additional specialty tools or equipment.
• Compatible Replacement Hardware Available — RC4WD manufactures dedicated replacement fasteners (M1.4x4mm hex head self-tapping screws) and additional hex bolt tools, ensuring that you can maintain and repair these wheels indefinitely without compatibility issues.
• Set of Four Wheels — This product includes four complete wheels, providing a full wheel set for your 1/24 RC vehicle rather than individual components, and eliminating the need to make multiple purchases.

Technical Performance

These RC4WD beadlock wheels represent the pinnacle of scale wheel engineering for 1/24 miniature crawlers. Manufactured from ABS plastic via precision injection moulding, they deliver exceptional build quality with zero compromise on visual authenticity or mechanical reliability. The 0.76-inch outer diameter combined with the 0.39-inch width creates proportions that are mathematically accurate to real full-size beadlock wheels when viewed on a 1/24 scale vehicle, ensuring that your RC crawler maintains correct visual balance and aesthetic appeal. The negative offset of 0.09 inches (2.5mm) is carefully calculated to position each wheel in the optimal stance position, replicating the geometry of genuine off-road racing vehicles and ensuring that your crawler looks authentic from every angle. At just 1.7 grams per wheel, these components are featherlight, minimising unsprung weight and allowing your vehicle's suspension to respond more effectively to terrain variations. The 2.2mm centre hole provides secure mounting, and the beadlock detailing is moulded directly into the plastic, ensuring that the visual effect remains consistent and durable throughout the lifetime of the wheels. These specifications make RC4WD OEM wheels the trusted choice for serious scale builders throughout the UK and beyond.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What vehicles do the RC4WD 0.7" beadlock wheels fit? — These wheels are specifically designed for 1/24 scale RC vehicles, with confirmed compatibility for all RC4WD 1/24 Trail Finder 2 RTR models with Mojave II hard body sets in yellow, blue, and red variants. They are engineered to accept 0.7" scale tyres and feature the correct centre hole size for RC4WD 1/24 scale platforms. Whilst they may work with some other manufacturers' 1/24 scale components, RC Model Shop can only guarantee compatibility with RC4WD wheels and tyres due to design variations across the industry.
• Are these wheels suitable for beginners? — Yes, absolutely. These beadlock wheels are perfect for beginners because they include all the components needed for installation, featuring a dedicated hex bolt tool that makes assembly straightforward and tool-free adjustment easy. Simply insert the 0.7" scale tyres of your choice onto the wheel, and you're ready to drive. The installation process requires no special expertise, making them an excellent choice for newcomers to the RC hobby who want to upgrade their vehicle's appearance and performance with genuine OEM components.
• What tyres do these wheels accept? — These wheels are designed specifically for 0.7" scale tyres. RC4WD manufactures several compatible 0.7" options, including the Mickey Thompson 0.7" Baja Claw TTC Scale Tyres (Z-T0198), which are shown installed on these wheels in official product imagery. Whilst other manufacturers may produce 0.7" scale tyres that could potentially fit, RC Model Shop recommends using RC4WD branded tyres to ensure perfect fitment, authentic appearance, and guaranteed compatibility without any guesswork.
• How much do these wheels weigh and why does that matter? — Each wheel weighs just 0.05 ounces (1.7 grams), making the complete set extremely lightweight at approximately 6.8 grams total. This ultralight weight specification is crucial for 1/24 scale vehicles because it minimises unsprung weight, allowing the suspension system to respond more effectively to terrain variations, improving climbing ability, traction, and overall trail performance. Heavier wheels would compress the suspension excessively and reduce the vehicle's ability to navigate challenging crawling terrain effectively.
• What is the negative offset and why is it important? — The negative offset of 0.09 inches (2.5mm) refers to how the wheel sits relative to the vehicle axle. This specific offset positioning is engineered to replicate the stance geometry of real full-size off-road racing vehicles, ensuring that your 1/24 scale crawler looks proportionally correct and authentic from every viewing angle. The offset also influences handling characteristics and ground clearance, making it a critical specification for achieving both visual authenticity and optimal performance.
• What colour options are available for these beadlock wheels? — RC4WD manufactures the 0.7" beadlock wheel in three colour options: White (Z-W0338, this product), Black (Z-W0339), and Grey (Z-W0329). Each colour offers different visual aesthetics, allowing you to choose the finish that best matches your vehicle's colour scheme and personal preferences. White provides excellent contrast and visual pop, making the beadlock detailing particularly prominent, whilst black offers a classic race-inspired appearance and grey provides a modern, understated look.
• Do these wheels come with tools for installation? — Yes, each set includes a miniature scale hex bolt tool designed specifically for M1.6 scale bolts with a 1.5mm hex size. This tool allows you to tighten and adjust the wheel fasteners with precision without requiring any additional tools or equipment. If you ever need replacement tools or fasteners, RC4WD manufactures dedicated replacement parts available separately, including additional hex bolt tools and M1.4x4mm hex head self-tapping screws.
• How do I install these wheels on my RC crawler? — Installation is straightforward: remove the old wheels from your vehicle, position your 0.7" scale tyres onto the new beadlock wheels (ensuring they sit correctly in the wheel well), mount the wheel and tyre assembly onto your vehicle's axles, and then use the included hex bolt tool to tighten the M1.6 scale bolts to secure them in place. The entire process typically takes just a few minutes per wheel, and no specialist knowledge or equipment is required beyond the included tool.
