This front rim is intended for the Associated RC18T chassis and is constructed from aluminium alloy with a swirl finish and a 3 poles design. Supplied as 1pr, it serves as both a visual update and a more rigid alternative to the original front plastic rims.
The rim's main practical roles are to offer a stiffer wheel mounting surface than many stock plastics and to create a repeatable tyre seating geometry. Moving to alloy may slightly change rotational inertia and heat transfer, so any handling differences are typically subtle and should be checked during tuning.
Installation is simple for those familiar with RC18T front assemblies. Confirm the rim seats correctly on your front hubs and ensure all wheel fixings are free of interference and secured to the recommended torque before using the vehicle.
