Technical Performance
These Axial 8-Hole 1.9 Beadlock Wheels represent precision engineering optimised for 1/10 scale rock crawling and trail running. The composite material construction provides an ideal balance of weight and durability—light enough to maintain responsive vehicle handling and suspension responsiveness, yet strong enough to withstand the stresses of technical terrain and aggressive rock crawling. The true beadlock system is a significant practical advantage over standard glued tyres; it eliminates the mess and inconvenience of tyre adhesive whilst providing superior tyre retention that won't deteriorate over time or through repeated use. With a 22mm width and 48mm beadlock diameter, these wheels are engineered to work seamlessly with the full range of popular 1.9 inch tyres used in 1/10 scale rock crawling, from soft compound options for grip to harder compounds for durability. The 12mm hex fitting ensures universal compatibility with standard RC rock crawler platforms across the industry. The inclusion of a realistic hub cover adds genuine scale authenticity without compromising function or adding unnecessary weight. Whether you're using these wheels with an S30 compound Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tyre or any other compatible 1.9 inch option, the engineering quality ensures consistent performance and reliability throughout your RC adventures.
