Procircuit 1/8th PCX buggy wheels & closed cell inserts

Procircuit 1/8th PSX buggy wheels & closed cell inserts

Modelix introduce new Procircuit wheels and closed cell inserts for 1/8th scale buggies. Starting with the wheels, the PCX rims are of a new lightweight design, scrubbing around 20 percent of weight compared to the previous wheels for a lower rotation mass and faster acceleration. Made from a different material the rims also flex more which improves traction in low-grip conditions as well as jump landing. Radial ribs help to keep the foam insert in place while a new glue catch makes for easier and tidier tyre gluing. The wheels are available in sets of four in white or fluorescent yellow colour.


Also new and intended for the use with the PCX wheels are orange closed cell inserts. Grooved lines on the outside perfectly match with Procircuit’s tyre line, allowing for improved response and feel. The inside of the insert sports larger grooves for better impact absorption and bump handling without sacrificing stability or forward traction. Thanks to a water-resistant and very durable material the inserts are reusable. Like the new wheels the inserts come in sets of four.
