Hudy 41mm wheels with split 6-spoke design for 1/8 off-road cars. Tough plastic composite makes the wheels very durable while the spoked design keeps the back side of the wheels from clogging with dirt. When dirt gets packed into a dish wheel, it causes very significant imbalance in the wheels, and handling suffers - especially high speed handling. These new spoked wheels from Hudy prevent dirt build-up to keep your car handling well even through a long 1 hour A-main. Available in a set of 4.

Part no. 803500

Hudy products are avaiable in the U.S. exclusively through RC America (http://www.rcamerica.com).

I know they're essentially the same company, but shouldn't that be X-Ray instead of Hudy?

It's just you. ;)

Seriously, dish wheels can get so packed with dirt it's alomst funny to see how much weight it adds to the wheel. If you run on a dry track, it's not that bad, but a little moist dirt and the dish wheels pick up about a pound of dirt. To each his own, but I run spoked wheels whenever possible.

777 wheels are the best of both worlds...

Looks like every other spoke wheel I have ever seen. Nice how they keep dirt and mud from collecting though, but this is old news.
