FingerTech Foam Wheels
£1.00-£15.00
October ’24: We have stock of both 0.5″ & 0.75″ thick 2.00″ & 2.25″ wheels – by default you will be shipped 0.5″ thick wheels unless you specify in the order notes.
FingerTech Foam wheels are a great choice for beetles because they absorb impacts and save your drive motors from stripping teeth. Metric sizes below. We’re stocking so you won’t have to order from Canada and pay international shipping and import taxes! For extra grip, try coating the tyres (optional: in a few layers of rubber cement and then) a few layers of liquid latex. Use with Repeat Eco Hubs to attach to motor shafts.
Stuart –
These are brilliant – I’d read that some people drill the set screw out to a larger diameter, but as standard on a 4mm D shaft they held perfectly even without Loctite. They’re also really tough as took a direct hit on the hub and although it broke, the motor was fine. I would recommend to buy the twist hub key as it makes taking wheels on and off a lot easier.
