JConcepts Hustle 1.9″ trail & scale wheel

JConcepts Hustle 1.9" trail & scale wheel

Made for trail and scale vehicles such as the Vaterra Ascender are the new Hustle 1.9″ rims from JConcepts. The black 6-spoke wheels feature a silver face section for scale looks and each pair of wheels includes a solid and open centre cap which brings even more detail to the wheel. Depending on the desired look or axle length of the vehicle, drivers can choose whichever is best for their individual needs. The caps are attached with the included six, 2x6mm socket head cap screws. In-between the 6 spoke design rest small grooves which break up the pattern adding a split personality to the overall design. The entire face of the wheel has been plated with a silver coating which gives scalers a little more luxurious look to match-up to the variety of full scale inspired bodies on the market.
