Refine Your TamTech-Gear Front End

Refresh a GB-01 chassis with Tamiya 40552 - GB-01 Metal Plated Front Wheels to achieve a classic reflective finish. These wheels keep the same measurements as ITEM 40109 and ITEM 40110 so they fit without altering wheel geometry.

Style with Practical Durability

The metal plate offers a tougher outer surface compared with standard wheels, helping to minimise cosmetic wear from routine running. They are a sensible choice for modders who want better looks with little compromise to performance.

Do these wheels need different wheel nuts or hardware?

No special hardware is required; use the same wheel nuts and hub fittings intended for GB-01 compatible wheels and tighten to the recommended torque.

Can the plated surface be polished if it dulls?

Light polishing with a non-abrasive metal polish can restore some shine, but avoid aggressive compounds that might wear through the plated layer.

Are these wheels suitable for competitive racing?

They retain original dimensions and add surface protection, but performance-focused racers should weigh aesthetic upgrades against any marginal weight change and choose accordingly.
