Visual and Functional Upgrade with Tamiya 51715 Wheels

For hobbyists running 1/10 off-road rigs, the Tamiya 51715 silver plated buggy wheels add a neat balance of style and utility. They suit a wide range of Tamiya machines and keep a practical focus on fit and durability.

Built for rough tracks and mixed surfaces

Design: The beadlock-inspired layout helps tyres sit securely for off-road use, improving traction on grit and grass.
Dimensions: These rims accept 26mm tyres and include a +2mm offset to slightly extend wheel track for improved stability.
Finish: A silver plated exterior gives a tidy look while leaving the tyre bonding zones unplated for stronger glue adhesion.

Which Tamiya models will these suit?

The wheels are made to fit many Tamiya 1/10 off-road kits. They are a good match for platforms such as the BB-01 and other compatible chassis where a 26mm width and +2mm offset are appropriate.

Are these wheels heavy compared to stock plastic rims?

They have a plated finish which can add slight mass versus plain plastic rims, but the change is minimal and often helps stability rather than harming performance.

Can I run them on carpet or only outdoors?

These wheels accept 26mm tyres that are commonly used both outdoors and on carpet tracks. Choose a tyre compound suited to the surface for best results.

Is any machining needed to fit them on a Tamiya axle?

In most cases they mount without modification on compatible hubs. Check for clearance around suspension arms or hexes if your build is heavily modified.
