AKA EVOlution 1/10th Scale Buggy Wheels

Tony Phalen September 26, 2013 New RC Cars and Parts 106 Views

In the current state of things, mounting up 1/10th scale buggy and truck tires and wheels can be a major pain. Getting the tire to seat in the wheels groove is simple enough, but getting it to STAY there during the gluing process can sometimes be a nightmare. Thankfully, AKA has molded up their new EVOlution wheels that feature their 1/8th scale L-shape design, making mounting tires a super easy process!

Not only does this design make gluing easier, it also creates a much stronger bond between wheel and tire. The wheels feature a redesign for a stiffer, stronger wheel and also come with pre-punched vent holes.
