JConcepts Hazard 1.9″ aluminium wheel

JConcepts has transformed the popular Hazard wheel into an aluminium and multi-material combination design that has a vibe like no other. In addition, included in the package are brass weights which cleverly assemble to the centre beadlocker of the wheel to add lower weight. The three-piece design consists of the aluminium machined inner and outer sections along with injection moulded centre beadlocker. The uniqueness of this combination allows quadrant mounted brass weights which drop in place and secure with steel hardware. The outside of the wheel provides all the detail with blasted finish, machined lip, built-in 12mm hex and threaded boss areas for assembly. The inner aluminium part balances the look and provides beefy locations for assembly with M2 x 6 screws to give the proper squeeze of components. A highly detailed, black anodised aluminium centre cap is also featured in the wheel set which installs after the wheel assembly is secured to the vehicle. Centre caps install over traditional 4mm wheel nuts and are secured with small and included M1.6 x 5 screws. Each Hazard wheel fully equipped with all 4 brass weights tip the scales at ~113g minus hardware.

OfficinaRC brass smart shims

Following the release of their alu smart shims, OfficinaRC have introduced these new brass smart shims. They have applied a laser on the side of the shim in order to immediately recognise its size, saving time and making everything easier. Now you will no longer have any doubts about which size it is, at a glance you will be able to identify the fitted size and no longer need a caliper. The material used, brass, plays a fundamental role, increasing the weight at the lowest point in order to help lower the centre of gravity and make the car even more stable. Measurements are defined by solid lines and segmented lines. The solid ones indicate millimetres and the segmented ones indicate half millimetres. The zig-zag line indicates the 1.75mm one. Available in the following sizes, 3x9x1.0mm (0.50g), 3x9x1.5mm (0.72g), 3x9x1.75mm (0.83g), 3x9x2.0mm (0.95g), 3x9x2.5mm (1.20g), 3x9x3.0mm (1.44g) and 3x9x3.5mm (1.66g).
