I am happy with a 15th place finish with the 2.2 this weekend. The 1.9 hotel comp was also a blast. Just need to add weight to the wheels still and put the white springs up front. Can't wait to hit the rocks with it.

Here you can see the three different style of the new Vanquish Products wheels I received. Two of the styles are 2.2 wheels and the smaller (obviously) is the 1.9 wheels I will be running on the Duratrax GC3.

The new wheels are a three piece beadlock, this means that it utilizes an inner ring that runs around the circumference of the wheel to secure both sides of the tire while only using one outer beadlock ring.

This gives you a super clean look on the outside. These wheels will be great for scalers and those of us that like some flash The Vanquish Little Harrys will still be the ultimate in tunability for you mini. These new wheels use the standard 2.2 VP SLW hub! This allows you to use hubs you may already have!

To install these wheels you first install the hub onto the car, then bolt the wheel to the hub with the 6 screws. Super clean These wheels will be offered in clear anodizing like shown and also in black.

I will get pictures of them on the car tonight.

I also made a custom hub to adapt on of these new wheels to my Futaba 4PK. The wheel is slightly larger than stock but fits great! I used the stock Futaba foam on the wheel.
