JConcepts Inverse wheel & updated car stand

JConcepts Inverse wheel & updated car stand

Seen at the World Championships in Thailand last November, the new JConcepts Inverse wheel with 2-piece design provides several benefits for maximum tune-ability and ease of use. The inner wheel comes standard in a black matte finish and is designed as a completely smooth surface for the cleanest fit and finish which resists debris build-up. The outer dish is available in bright white or fluorescent yellow and is creatively interlocked with the wheel and with the addition of inner screws can provide tuned flexibility. A 4 or 8 screw combination can be utilized for tuning with 8 screws providing a stiffer inner wheel and 4 screws providing more flex. The Inverse wheel face also incorporates a user friendly wheel face shaped to promote a smoother gluing, wiping and drying experience. Also new from JConcepts is their updated polycarbonate car stand which is now available in a matt black finish.
