Overview
Take your 1/10 drift build to the next level with the Louise RC High Performance Drift Wheel and Tyre Series. These precision-engineered wheels are designed specifically for RC drift applications, delivering the perfect combination of performance, adjustability and stunning aesthetics. Whether you're building a competition chassis or a street-style show car, these wheels offer the flexibility and quality that serious RC drift enthusiasts demand. Available in the UK from RC Model Shop, they represent an excellent investment in your drift setup.
The standout feature of this wheel set is the innovative 2-piece modular construction with interchangeable offset inserts. This intelligent design allows you to dial in your stance perfectly, adjusting the track width and body fitment to suit your exact requirements. For RC drift UK competitors and enthusiasts alike, this level of customisation is invaluable. You get four different offset options—2mm, 4mm, 6mm and 8mm—all included in one set, giving you maximum flexibility without purchasing multiple wheel sets.
Each wheel comes pre-mounted with premium drift compound tyres, so you're ready to start drifting straight out of the box. The wheels are finished in an attractive matte black paint that delivers both professional looks and long-lasting durability. With deep concave profiles and aggressive lip sizes, these wheels deliver both genuine performance and impressive scale realism that will make your RC drift car stand out at the track or on the street.
Key Features
- Adjustable Offset System with Interchangeable Inserts — The removable 2mm, 4mm, 6mm and 8mm offset inserts allow you to quickly and easily change your wheel offset without purchasing separate wheel sets, giving you unmatched flexibility for tuning your stance and body fitment to any drift chassis.
- 2-Piece Modular Wheel Design — The precision-engineered two-piece construction allows the offset inserts to be quickly swapped, enabling you to experiment with different stances and find the perfect setup for your specific drift car and driving style.
- Pre-Mounted Drift Compound Tyres — The wheels arrive ready to use with professional-grade drift compound tyres already fitted and balanced, saving you time and ensuring optimal performance straight out of the box.
- Deep Concave Profile and Aggressive Lips — The aggressive wheel design features deep concave profiles that not only look fantastic but also contribute to improved weight distribution and better handling characteristics during high-speed drift runs.
- 12mm Hex Fitment — Compatible with the vast majority of 1/10 scale drift chassis available on the RC market in the UK, including popular drift platforms from all major manufacturers.
- Matte Black Finish — The premium matte black paint provides a professional, understated appearance that complements any body colour and resists scratching and fading better than standard finishes.
- Competition Grade Quality — Louise RC's reputation for high-quality RC components means these wheels are built to withstand the demands of serious competitive drifting and intensive bashing alike.
Technical Performance
The Louise RC 1/10 Drift Wheel Set represents a significant step forward in RC drift wheel technology. Each wheel features a 26mm width profile, which provides an excellent balance between scale realism and practical stability during drifting. The pre-mounted drift compound tyres have an outer diameter of 65mm, ensuring smooth rolling resistance and predictable handling characteristics across a wide range of track surfaces and conditions. The 12mm hex connection is the industry standard for 1/10 scale RC drift cars, making these wheels universally compatible with mainstream drift platforms. The 2-piece modular construction is where the real engineering excellence shines through. Rather than being permanently assembled, the wheel face separates from the offset insert system, allowing you to swap between the included 2mm, 4mm, 6mm and 8mm offset options in seconds. This is a game-changer for RC drifters because it means you can quickly adapt your setup to different track layouts, changing weather conditions, or when testing different body styles and suspension geometries. The deep concave design isn't just for aesthetics—the aggressive profiling helps manage weight distribution more effectively during sustained drift runs, contributing to more predictable handling and faster lap times. The included drift compound tyres are specifically formulated for maximum sidewall grip during sustained slides, which is the cornerstone of effective RC drifting. These aren't standard all-purpose tyres; they're engineered for the unique demands of drift competition.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these wheels suitable for beginners in RC drifting? — Yes, these Louise RC wheels are an excellent choice for beginners because the adjustable offset system helps you learn how different stance settings affect your car's handling. As your skills improve, you can experiment with different offsets to find your preferred setup. The pre-mounted tyres mean there's no fiddly assembly required.
- What makes the adjustable offset system so useful? — The offset controls how far out from the chassis your wheels sit. A wider offset (6mm or 8mm) creates a more aggressive stance and wider track, whilst narrower offsets (2mm or 4mm) keep the wheels closer to the body. By having all four options included, you can quickly test how different stances affect cornering speed, slide initiation and overall handling characteristics without buying multiple wheel sets.
- Will these wheels fit my 1/10 drift car? — These wheels use the standard 12mm hex fitment found on virtually all 1/10 scale RC drift chassis, including popular models from Yokomo, Sakuma, MST, HPI and other mainstream manufacturers. If your car uses 12mm hex adapters, these wheels will fit perfectly.
- Are the tyres included or do I need to buy them separately? — The tyres are already pre-mounted on the wheels and ready to use straight from the box. The drift compound material is specifically formulated for RC drifting and represents excellent quality. When they eventually wear out, you can replace them with any compatible 1/10 drift tyres available in the UK.
- How do I change the offset on these wheels? — The 2-piece modular design makes offset changes simple. You just separate the wheel face from the offset insert ring, remove the old insert, and click in your desired offset size (2mm, 4mm, 6mm or 8mm). The process takes just a few seconds per wheel and requires no tools.
- What is the difference between the 14-spoke and 5-spoke versions? — The 14-spoke design shown here is the model number LNHA562T, whilst Louise RC also makes a 5-spoke version. The 14-spoke design typically offers slightly more weight distribution and is favoured by many competitive drifters for consistent handling, whilst 5-spoke wheels are lighter and preferred by others for maximum responsiveness. Both are excellent choices.
- Can I use these wheels for high-speed running or bashing? — These wheels are specifically engineered for drift applications with drift compound tyres, which prioritise sidewall grip over speed. Whilst you could technically use them for street running, they would wear quickly and not deliver optimal performance. For dedicated drift use, they're perfect.
- Do these wheels come balanced? — Yes, the wheels arrive pre-mounted with tyres and ready to use. The assembly and balancing have been done at the factory, ensuring smooth performance right out of the box.
