JConcepts Aggressor wheels, Fling King & Renegade tires

JConcepts continue to expand their monster truck line-up with the release of their new Aggressor wheels as well as Fling Kings and Renegade tires. The Aggressor wheel is familiar, on the outside it looks like its successful sibling, the Tribute wheel. However, to accommodate some of today’s trucks, the Aggressor is beefed up starting with thick wall sections throughout the wheel and a reinforced 17mm hex adaptor with a ten-leg bolt pattern that locks and keys into the wheel. To fit many of today’s solid axle and independent suspension monster trucks such as the Losi LMT and Traxxas Maxx, the inside of the wheel is raised to a 3.8” bead mounting diameter. The 2.6” outer bead diameter combined with the 3.8” inner diameter makes the wheel incredibly versatile and can fit to an array of vehicles on the market while still providing that monster truck look. The wheel comes with an optional planetary cover and axle adaptor to fit directly to the popular Traxxas Maxx vehicle and is available in white, black, yellow, and silver colours.

JConcepts JCI The Gozer body

When it comes to off-road nastiness, look no further than the Gozer body for 12.3” wheelbase scale trucks and crawlers from JConcepts. The angular front and rear sections provide major clearance for crawling tires and competition-based rigs. The nature of the 4-door body has a lot of purpose in mind and with a little nip here and a tuck there, the Gozer sits down on a variety of platforms. A large arched front wheel-well dead-ends at the grille section and once covered with included decal, looks quite bossy and stares you down like a piece of heavy-equipment. The high-roof design with crisp body lines, front vent and recessed bed are incorporated to provide durability to a bruising machine. Large format windows in the dual cab design provide plenty of rise and clearance for an assortment of body combinations. Large swooping rear wheel wells allow suspension travel to soak up the terrain while the tires are allowed a lot of movement up past the body. Included in each body set, a clear and heavy-duty polycarbonate body, decal sheet and the paint mask for all windows.
