Upgrade adapter for Tamiya buggy wheel setup

Specifically produced for Tamiya Thunder shot, Thunder Dragon, Fire Dragon and Terra Scorcher chassis, these red aluminum hub adapters come as a two-piece set to replace the plastic wheel mounting interface on 1/10 buggy models. The metal surface gives a consistent seating point for wheels used in tuning.

Performance role: fitted as the wheel hub contact, the adapter helps eliminate inconsistent wheel seating caused by worn or flexible plastic hubs, contributing to steadier handling during setup changes. This is a suspension and alignment-level upgrade rather than a component in the drivetrain.

Fitting tips: follow your chassis manual to remove the wheel and original hub, then fit the adapter over the axle or onto the hex stub as appropriate, secure with the existing nut or screw, and check wheel spin and lateral runout. Re-torque after a short break-in run.

Tuning advice: use these adapters when you swap wheels or trial different offsets to ensure repeatable wheel positioning and accurate bearing seating for reliable setup comparisons.

The adapter itself does not alter geometry, but by improving wheel seating consistency it can make handling adjustments more repeatable and predictable during tuning.
Yes — the stable metal interface makes it easier to compare wheel offsets and fitments without variable seating caused by soft plastic hubs.
The adapters are lightweight and should not notably change dynamic balance, but always check wheel runout and balance after fitting new hardware or rims.
