Star-style alloy sinkage rim for RC18T tuning

This star-pattern alloy sinkage surface rim is an RC-scale replacement wheel designed specifically for the Associated RC18T chassis. It is a direct-fit wheel option to replace damaged rims or to provide a more consistent mounting surface for common RC18T foam and rubber tyres. This part is intended for hobby use on model trucks and is not suitable for real vehicles.

When fitting, focus on correct seating and balanced fitment: verify hub hex engagement, make sure the rim clears suspension components and bodywork, and confirm tyre bead seating before any high-speed running. The rim supports setup work by helping keep tyre alignment consistent and by making handling changes more predictable when swapping tyres or adjusting track width.

Specifications

  • Item: Alloy Standard Sinkage Surface Rims (Star) - 1pr
  • Material: Alloy
  • Model Number: AR0503
  • Compatibility: Associated RC18T

Choose this alloy rim when you need a durable mounting surface for RC18T wheels to maintain alignment for tuning and tyre evaluation.

Will this rim fit my RC18T without modification?

It is made as a direct-fit for the Associated RC18T platform; double-check your hub hex size and wheel nut thread before final installation.

What is the rim material and why choose alloy?

The rim is listed as alloy, which provides a harder mounting surface than standard plastic rims and can improve repeatable tyre seating for setup work.

Any installation tips to avoid issues?

Ensure the rim fully seats on the hub hex, check for clearance against suspension arms and body, and balance tyres after mounting to avoid vibration.

Can I mount standard RC18T foam tyres on this rim?

Yes, common RC18T foam and rubber tyres fit this rim profile; always confirm bead seating and glue compatibility for secure mounting.
