26mm Rally Block Wheels to Modernise Hornet, Grasshopper and Frog

The Tamiya 22077 Rally Block Wheels are a straightforward upgrade for hobbyists wanting a contemporary look on older kits. Originally used on the Mitsubishi Pajero with the CW-01 chassis, these wheels present a simple five-spoke motif to refresh your models.

Compatibility Notes and Build Info

Sold as a one-piece large diameter set for both front and rear, these wheels are compatible with Hornet, Grasshopper and Frog kits and install with minimal fuss. They are a quick way to alter stance and tyre contact patch.

  • Compatibility: Suitable for Tamiya Hornet, Grasshopper, Frog
  • Design: Five-spoke styling
  • Recommended Tires: Best used with Tamiya 50476 Rally Block Tires or 54598 Rock Block Tires
  • Installation Note: Check for tyre to bumper contact and trim if necessary

Practical Setup Tips

Because these rims increase tyre diameter, you should review gear ratio choices to maintain desired speed and torque. Upgrading to full ball bearings will reduce rolling resistance and improve drivetrain feel. Trim the front bumper if tyres make contact during steering travel.

Yes, the rally block tread profile and larger diameter suit mixed-surface bashing, though tyre choice will affect grip and wear.
Changing wheel diameter and offset can alter steering response; check track width and suspension droop after fitting.
Installation uses standard wheel nuts and hex drivers, though a hobby knife may be handy for trimming bumper edges if clearance is tight.
