Key Features
- Specialised 1/10 Scale Drift Design — These wheels are purpose-built for drift and street racing applications, meaning the geometry, weight distribution, and structural characteristics have all been optimised for the unique demands of precision drifting rather than off-road bashing or crawling.
- 6-Spoke Wheel Architecture — The 6-spoke design provides an excellent balance between lightweight construction and rigid structural support, allowing the wheel to maintain its shape under cornering loads whilst minimising unsprung mass for improved suspension response.
- 6mm Offset Specification — The 6mm offset has been carefully selected to position the tyre at the optimal distance from the vehicle centreline, ensuring proper weight distribution, reducing scrubbing, and maximising traction during high-speed manoeuvres on drift courses and street tracks.
- 1.9 Inch Diameter Wheels — The 1.9-inch diameter is the standard specification for 1/10 scale drift and street cars, providing the correct ground clearance, gearing ratios, and visual proportions that drivers expect for this class of vehicle.
- Professional White Finish — The clean white colour provides a premium appearance that works beautifully with any RC car body colour and provides excellent visibility during high-speed drifting sessions, making it easier to track your vehicle's orientation.
- 12mm Hex Mounting System — The universal 12mm hex fitting ensures compatibility with the vast majority of 1/10 scale RC cars on the market, including popular platforms from Traxxas, Team Associated, Tamiya and numerous other manufacturers.
- Front and Rear Position Versatility — Each set of four wheels can be used in both front and rear positions without modification, providing maximum flexibility in your setup and allowing you to adjust your tyre and wheel configuration based on track conditions.
- Quality Fastrax Engineering — Backed by Fastrax's reputation for precision manufacturing and attention to detail, these wheels meet the exacting standards required by competitive RC drivers and serious hobbyists.
Technical Performance
The Fastrax 1/10 Street/Drift Tyre 6-Spoke Wheel represents genuine engineering excellence designed specifically for the demands of competitive and recreational drift driving. The 6-spoke design has been proven through extensive real-world testing to provide the optimal combination of light weight and structural rigidity that drift enthusiasts demand. By minimising rotational mass, these wheels allow your RC car's suspension and steering system to respond more quickly to driver inputs, which is absolutely critical when executing precision drifts at speed. The 6mm offset specification works in conjunction with the 1.9-inch diameter to establish the correct scrub radius and track geometry for drift-specific performance characteristics. This offset positioning reduces tyre scrubbing during transitions between left and right locks, extending tyre life and maintaining consistent grip throughout extended driving sessions. The white finish is not merely cosmetic—it provides excellent contrast against track surfaces and competing vehicles, improving visibility during competitive events. The construction quality reflects Fastrax's commitment to manufacturing durability without unnecessary weight penalties. These wheels are engineered to withstand the lateral loading stresses of high-speed drifting whilst maintaining dimensional stability over thousands of kilometres of driving. The 12mm hex fitting system is a worldwide standard that ensures these wheels integrate seamlessly with virtually any modern 1/10 scale RC vehicle platform, from entry-level ready-to-run RC cars to high-end competition builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these Fastrax drift wheels suitable for my 1/10 scale RC car? — These wheels are specifically designed for 1/10 scale drift and street cars and feature the universal 12mm hex fitting system that is standard across most modern 1/10 scale RC platforms. Before purchasing, simply verify that your vehicle uses 12mm hex wheel adapters, which is the industry standard for this scale. If you're unsure about compatibility with your specific model, our team at RC Model Shop can help you verify fitment.
- What is the 6mm offset and why does it matter for drift driving? — The offset refers to the distance between the mounting surface of the wheel and the tyre's centreline. A 6mm offset positions the tyre slightly inward from the wheel mounting point, which optimises the scrub radius for drift applications. This specification ensures proper weight distribution, reduces tyre scrubbing during transitions, and maximises grip during high-speed cornering—all essential factors for competitive and recreational drift driving.
- Can I use these wheels on both front and rear of my RC drift car? — Yes, absolutely. These Fastrax wheels are designed to be used in both front and rear positions without any modifications required. This versatility allows you to experiment with different configurations based on your track conditions and driving preferences.
- What is the wheel diameter and how does it affect my RC car's performance? — These wheels feature a 1.9-inch diameter, which is the standard specification for 1/10 scale drift and street cars. This size provides the correct ground clearance, maintains proper gearing ratios, and ensures your vehicle maintains the visual proportions expected for this class. The diameter directly influences your top speed, acceleration, and ground clearance, so maintaining the standard 1.9-inch size is important for balanced performance.
- Do I need to purchase anything else to use these wheels? — These wheels come ready to mount on any compatible 1/10 scale RC car with 12mm hex adapters. If your vehicle doesn't already have 12mm hex wheel adapters fitted, you may need to purchase these separately—our team can advise on the correct adapters for your specific vehicle.
- Why choose white wheels for my RC drift car? — The white finish offers several advantages beyond pure aesthetics. It provides excellent visibility during high-speed driving sessions, allowing you to track your vehicle's orientation more easily. White wheels also complement virtually any RC car colour scheme, from vibrant primary colours to subtle metallic finishes, making them versatile for any build.
- Are these wheels suitable for beginners or only for competitive drivers? — These Fastrax wheels are suitable for RC enthusiasts at all skill levels, from beginners discovering drift driving for the first time to experienced competitive racers. The quality construction and proven design make them reliable equipment that will support your driving development regardless of your current experience level.
