Avid introduce these black colour wing mount buttons for 1/10th on-road and off-road vehicles. They were designed after Avid’s successful 8th off-road wing button, they feature a countersunk screw hole and the same contact surface as the 8th buttons for an improved fitment of the wing and less deformation, resulting in increased rear traction at high speeds. The buttons come as pair, they are CNC-machined from aluminium and laser-etched with the Avid “A” and are usable on most touring cars and off-road vehicles that use M3 screws to fasten the wing.
