Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/10 Wave Truck Tyre Mounted Star-Spoke wheels represent serious engineering applied to the wheel and tyre category of RC truck components. Built to withstand the demanding conditions that RC truck operators routinely subject their vehicles to, these wheels combine robust construction with proven tyre compound formulations. The star-spoke wheel design distributes impact forces efficiently across the structural elements, reducing stress concentration and contributing to longevity even during aggressive bashing sessions. The wave tyre pattern has been optimised through extensive development to deliver balanced performance across diverse terrains, from carpet and hardwood surfaces at indoor tracks to outdoor grass, dirt, and gravel environments. The 12mm hex connection point is engineered to industry specifications, ensuring perfect fitment and eliminating the micro-movements that can develop with loose connections and lead to premature wear. For UK-based RC enthusiasts running competition-level trucks or casual weekend bashers alike, these wheels provide the kind of reliable performance that justifies repeat purchases and recommendations within the hobby community. The pre-mounted configuration saves valuable setup time, making these wheels ideal for drivers who want maximum time behind the transmitter rather than time spent in workshop preparation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels suitable for all 1/10 scale RC trucks? — The Fastrax 1/10 Wave Truck Tyre Mounted Star-Spoke wheels feature the industry-standard 12mm hex fitting, making them compatible with the vast majority of 1/10 scale trucks including models from Traxxas, Team Associated, HPI, Team Losi, Mugen, Rival, Axial Racing and many other manufacturers. However, before purchasing, verify that your specific RC truck model uses 12mm hex hubs. Some specialist or older models may use different connection systems.
- Can I use these wheels on both the front and rear of my truck? — Yes, these wheels are engineered for dual-position use and can be fitted to both front and rear axles. This versatility allows you to purchase a complete set for your entire truck or to experiment with different handling characteristics by mixing wheel positions as needed.
- What surfaces are these tyres suitable for? — The wave tyre pattern is engineered as a versatile, all-purpose compound suitable for use across multiple environments including indoor carpet and hardwood track surfaces, as well as outdoor grass, dirt, and gravel terrain. This makes them an excellent choice for drivers who enjoy both track and off-road running without needing to swap tyres between sessions.
- Do these wheels come pre-assembled? — Yes, the Fastrax 1/10 Wave Truck Tyre Mounted Star-Spoke wheels arrive completely pre-mounted with tyres already fitted and ready for installation. You simply need to swap out your existing wheels and install these on your truck's hex hubs — no additional tyre fitting or balancing is required.
- What is the advantage of the star-spoke design? — The multi-spoke star-spoke pattern provides excellent structural rigidity whilst distributing impact forces across a wider area of the wheel. This design philosophy reduces stress concentration, improves the overall durability of the wheel, and contributes to better handling characteristics by optimising weight distribution.
- Are these wheels and tyres suitable for high-speed running? — The Fastrax Wave pattern delivers balanced performance characteristics suitable for moderate to enthusiast-level speeds. Whilst these wheels are engineered for durability and reliable grip, drivers operating at extreme speeds or those competing at the highest levels may wish to evaluate specialist competition-grade wheel and tyre combinations designed specifically for racing applications.
