JConcepts Mono front wheel for 22X-4, B74.1 & XB4

With the recent compatibility of 4wd off-road buggies, JConcepts stepped up and created a purpose designed wheel for a popular selection of vehicles. JConcepts Mono 2.2” wheels are designed in the popular dish style and available in bright white and fluorescent yellow. The new Mono wheel is a direct fit for TLR 22X-4, B74.1, and Xray XB4 vehicles making the stock of a certain wheel a little more convenient. The new Mono wheels are the maximum size allowed under ROAR rules and make a statement with their large appearance, slight convex dish shaped design and superior inner rib design. The wheels incorporate an outer glue catch that resists excess glue from running down the wheel face during the gluing process. JConcepts wheels are manufactured using advanced techniques to ensure trueness and durability and are branded with the small JC logo for brand identification and authenticity.

Rêve D fluorescent yellow & pink UL12 wheels

Rêve D have introduced two new colours, fluorescent yellow and pink, to their UL12 competition wheel line. While the new colour is the big change, the wheel itself maintains it 6mm offset, and the adoption of a large inner diameter & thin rim that avoids interference with the suspension is the same as the current UL12.

Pro-Line Front Runner drag tire & Showtime wheel

Pro-Line is ready to change the No Prep Drag game once again with a true next-generation front tire designed for maximum performance, the Front Runner Tire. Named after the front tires found in full-size drag racing, it was built from the ground up to be as lightweight and narrow as possible while still maintaining a scale appearance. The outside of the tire features a standard 2.2″ bead, so it will look like all the regular front tires from the outside, but the inside of the tire has a 2.7″ flat bead for reduced rubber weight. Combine it with Pro-Line’s an all-new Showtime Front Runner 2.2″/2.7″ black drag front wheel featuring a scale spoke pattern that mimics full-size drag wheels. Designed to be super lightweight and narrow for maximum performance, they are a strong and lightweight 12mm hex wheel making them the ideal choice for performance drag racing.

Schumacher Atom 2 GT12 spool set & wheels

New for the Atom 2 GT12 from Schumacher is this spool set, incorporating single bolt fixing hex wheels. This Option Part is specifically designed for medium to high grip conditions and helps improves direction change, on-power steering and predictability in high grip conditions. Whilst being drastically lighter than the kit differential, this set offers a weight reduction compared to the Core RC 3 bolt option as well, and therefore improves acceleration. The new hex wheel design offers improved flexibility characteristics and performance while the single bolt fixing makes changing tyres faster, and maintenance is also greatly reduced compared to the differential. The weight saving of this option compared to a diff is 16.8g. This option part makes use of the new ‘Hex’ style Contact wheels with versions available with 35 and 40 shore as well as the 37 shore control tires.
