These alloy rims are an RC-scale replacement for the Associated RC18T wheel assemblies, supplied as a pair to substitute worn plastic or metal rims. They are made to preserve the original wheel offset and hub fit while adding the increased stiffness of alloy components. The six-pole design defines the rim's spoke and mounting layout and affects how load is transmitted through the hub.
Installation follows standard hobby procedures: remove the current wheels, align the rim with the wheel hex and hub interface, then secure using the RC18T's original mounting method. After fitting, inspect rotational clearance, confirm fastener tightness, and check wheel balance to help avoid vibration during fast runs. These rims are aimed at scale short-course and stadium truck tuning where rim weight and stiffness adjustments alter handling.
This alloy rim set offers a sturdy upgrade choice for RC18T owners looking to refine handling through controlled changes in rim stiffness and mass distribution.
