Official AliExpress Wheel Thread

[Garcbomber]

Gonna need some 6S backflips soon and noticed there are several other Arrma knockoff options including Katars along with alternatives.

Created as a general AliEx wheel discussion and review thread.

I ordered these already for the Felony.
They actually come with the correct bigger tire in the rear.
They come unglued. Haven’t had a chance to try yet. Just waiting for glue to cure. Will report back.

I didn’t even think to check before glueing them up. I actually don’t know what to check for to see they’re belted or not.

They did have a different texture on the inside of the tire. Looks like this.

You want a belt to prevent ballooning and keep high rpm stability.

I run these on my DR8. They are identical to the original and perform as expected.

I saw those red beadlock ones on Amazon the other day. Have you gotten a chance to run them yet?

Not enough track time to make lap comparisons, but they have passed wheel toughness and tire bead lock strength tests jumping and side landing. Definitely *balloon more because of the foam/sidewall softness in comparison.

I’d like to try ordering from Ali but every time I try it goes to German and I am not advanced enough to get it out of that.

Also following, I hear the wheels are usually where the issues are. Nice to have alternatives though!

Flush your browser cache..

Click Ctrl H (on your keyboard when you have your browser open)

then look for the settings 3 dots to open the tab to clear Browsing Data.

It will launch a separate window to allow you to select all types of data you want to get rid of..

But PLEASE Note-
IF you have certain passwords for certain websites you commonly visit like ArrmaForum or the like..
Make sure you uncheck those ,so you don't clear those out by accident.
Just a heads up.
