Description
The Pro-Line Desperado 2.8" Chrome Front Wheels (Part No: PL2728-01) are high-style, high-durability 6-spoke rims designed specifically for the front end of Traxxas nitro-powered stadium trucks. These wheels combine a rugged nylon construction with a "super shiny" chrome finish and a molded-in bead-loc ring to give your truck a tough, customized "show" look without sacrificing performance.
Key Features:
- Chrome "Show" Finish: A high-gloss chrome plating that significantly upgrades the visual appeal of your truck compared to standard black or white wheels.
- Traxxas-Style Bead: Specifically designed to work with all Pro-Line 2.8" Traxxas-style bead tires and original Traxxas 2.8" tires, ensuring a perfect fit and easy gluing.
- 6-Spoke Design: Features an aggressive 6-spoke layout with scale lug nut detailing and a simulated bead-lock outer ring for an authentic off-road aesthetic.
- Nitro-Specific Fitment: These are bearing-supported wheels designed for the non-driven front axles of nitro vehicles. They utilize the standard Traxxas 5x11x4mm bearing pockets.
- Heavy-Duty Nylon: Made in the USA from high-strength nylon material to withstand the vibration and heat associated with nitro engine operation.

Installation Tip:
Important: These wheels require 5x11x4mm ball bearings (not included) to be pressed into the wheel pockets before installation. If you are upgrading from stock plastic wheels, you can often reuse your existing bearings, but a fresh set of shielded bearings is recommended for the best performance. Pro-Tip: When gluing tires to chrome wheels, use a hobby knife to carefully scrape the chrome plating off the mounting bead area only to ensure a strong rubber-to-plastic bond.
