LaTrax Rally Wheels Upgrade

thingiverse

UPDATE: New stronger wheel design: "wheel.stl". Best printed from PETG for maximum strength. This new design features thicker spokes to prevent breakage due to aggressive driving. I realized I meant to post these as a remix from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:174009. These wheels for the LaTrax Rally are an upgrade over stock wheels, which are surprisingly narrow and make the car difficult to drive on slippery surfaces like basketball courts or polished concrete. They are designed to fit on the stock car and Team Associated RC18R tires. Although these tires can be harder to find, they can usually be purchased on eBay for around $20 or sourced through your local hobby shop's archives. To ensure a proper fit, you may need to heat the rear wheels slightly with a hair dryer and adjust the body posts to their tallest setting. Both a flat face and concave version of the wheel are included. The concave design is more challenging to print but offers added durability. I recommend printing the flat face wheel upside down on the print bed and manually adding supports for the center hole.
