JConcepts released the 2.6” Krimson Dually for Axial SMT10 Monster Truck kits, Clod Buster (and similar) and Traxxas Stampede, Stampede 4×4, Slash 4×4, Rustler and Rustler 4×4. This new wheel is a first of its kind, a purpose built, 2-piece, 12mm hex wheel which fit dual Fling King tires to perfection. Like the originals, the wheel is 2-piece which accomplishes many things in the process.

The use of an inner and outer wheel allows ease of build and gluing of the tires while aligning and perfecting the ultimate mud tire combination.

There is a very blurred line between a Monster Truck and a Mega Truck, however, both pack in so much fun and energy, it’s a natural bond. In the 1980’s it was very common for early Monster Truckers to use dual wheel tires to accomplish what one large Terror Tire could do. With a lot of garage-tech engineering and ingenuity, the dual wheel trucks could crush a car with the best of them while also running a mud pit in the blink of an eye.

The wheels interlock, like a tongue and groove concept that key together and provide rock-solid alignment and forward drive. For a scale look and clamping force, a long screw is built from the inside, clamping the wheels together like the scale counterparts they were designed after. A bolt-in hub adaptor was created to match a huge variety of trucks while also offering different overall widths to choose from. The bead of the wheel features a 3-step surface which provides a massive amount of area for glue to rest giving the utmost security for full-throttle mud runs.

The Krimson Dually wheel includes an incredible, three, off-set 12mm wheel adaptors. 11mm width is included for a stock Clod Buster or retro type Monster Truck width, 18mm for increased stability on vehicles such as the Stampede, Stampede 4×4, Rustler, Slash 4×4. The 25mm adaptor works well for monster and mega truck racing. The adaptors are installed with 6 x 2.5 x 12mm screws and centers precisely on the wheel for positive engagement.

The Krimson Dually wheels are available in white, black, gray | silver and olive | gold and feature a slight matte finish. The wheels also include open and closed planetary cap covers to completely mimic the looks and stance of the heavy trucks from the golden age of Monsters and Mega truck competitions.
