Precision alloy sinkage wheel for RC18T applications

This star-pattern alloy sinkage surface rim is provided as an RC replacement wheel for the Associated RC18T chassis. It is designed as a direct-fit option to replace damaged rims or to supply a consistent, harder mounting surface for industry-standard RC18T foam and rubber tyres. The item is intended solely for hobby model truck use and not for any real vehicle application.

Installation requires careful seating and balanced fitment: confirm hub hex engagement, verify rim clearance to suspension and body components, and check tyre bead seating before any extended or high-speed running. In setup roles the rim supports repeatable tyre alignment and predictable handling when tyres are swapped or track width is adjusted.

Specifications

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

Select this alloy rim when you need a robust mounting surface on the RC18T to keep alignment stable for tuning and tyre evaluation.

The rim is produced as a direct-fit replacement for the Associated RC18T; installers should still verify hex engagement and wheel nut compatibility to ensure accurate seating.
The alloy mounting surface provides a firmer base than plastic rims, which can improve repeatability of tyre seating and help when comparing setup runs.
After mounting, verify clearance against suspension and bodywork, confirm tyre bead seating and glue bond, and perform wheel balancing to avoid vibration at speed.
Standard RC18T foam and rubber tyres are compatible with this rim profile; verify bead seating and adhesive compatibility for the tyre type in use.
