JConcepts have introduced the Fin 0mm offset spring cups for the Team Associated B6-series off-road buggies.

The cups feature a unique shock shaft path which helps lock the spring cup in position during hard crashes or collisions. Finishing the parts off is an etched off-set identification and JConcepts.net logo.

Side-wall ribs in a circular pattern add to the exterior of the tyre to support high-grip racing.
