PROLINE DESPERADO 2.8 BLACK FRONT-JATO,NITRO STAMP/RUST WHEELS For RC Car

The Pro-Line Desperado 2.8" Black Front Wheels (Part No: PL2728-03) are the "stealth" version of the Desperado series, swapping the chrome flash for a rugged, satin black finish. Designed specifically for the non-driven front axles of 1/10 scale Traxxas nitro trucks, these wheels feature a 6-spoke design with a simulated bead-loc ring that provides a massive visual upgrade over stock "dish" wheels.

Key Features:

• Murdered-Out Black Finish: A deep black nylon finish that resists chipping and maintains its look even after heavy bashing sessions.
• Traxxas-Style Bead: Engineered to fit all Pro-Line 2.8" Traxxas-style bead tires (like Trenchers or Badlands) as well as original Traxxas factory 2.8" tires.
• One-Piece Durability: Molded from a high-strength, proprietary nylon compound that is both lightweight and rigid enough to handle the high speeds of a Jato 3.3.
• Bearing-Supported Hubs: These wheels feature precision-molded bearing pockets for the non-driven front axles of nitro vehicles. They require 5x11x4mm bearings for operation.
• Scale Detailing: Includes realistic molded-in bolts around the outer "bead-lock" rim and a deep-set hub design for a more aggressive stance.

Compatibility List (Front Only):

Build Tip:

Since these wheels are black, you don't need to scrape away any plating for the glue to bond (unlike the chrome version). However, always scuff the bead area with a bit of sandpaper to ensure the best possible adhesion for high-speed runs. Pro-Tip: If you are running these on a Jato, ensure your front steering blocks are free of play, as the extra offset of the Desperado wheels can amplify any existing "wobble" in the front end.
