JConcepts Hazard SC wheels in yellow

JConcepts have announced that their popular Hazard short course wheel is now available in yellow. A powerful new look that combines the winning combination of a 10 spoke design, bead-lock appearance and center lug nut detail with a hint of inspiration from yesteryear. The Hazard will make an immediate impact on the performance of the SC10 trucks by widening the stance of the truck by 6mm in overall width. The increased width will maximize the SC10 and bring it up to the ROAR maximum legal limits in dimensional width.

Avid have announce that the white version of their Satellite buggy wheels are now available for B4.1, RB5, and TLR 22. The release was delayed a few weeks behind the yellow wheels because they wanted to get the white color perfect, and they are really pleased with the bright white color of the production wheels. The goal was to have the white wheels match the white paint on your body without looking yellowed or dull.

AKA HEXlite 1:10 buggy wheels

The new AKA HEXlite 1:10 buggy wheels were designed with two things in mind, weight and durability. Both were achieved through superior engineering and use of AKA’s proprietary high-impact nylon. This combination makes them one of the lightest hex wheels on the market. Revolutionary to the 1:10 market is the optional wheel stiffener insert. It has been designed to help keep dirt from building up inside the wheel, making it go out of balance, and stiffens the already stiff wheel. HEXlite wheels spin true and balanced thanks to the quality craftsmanship of being made in the U.S.A. Available in the rear for the Associated/Kyosho/Losi and as a 2wd front for the Associated/Kyosho and Losi as well as a 4wd front for the Kyosho.
