Setup and Installation

These wheels are designed as direct OEM replacement parts for compatible RC vehicles. Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and safety.

1. Vehicle Preparation: Ensure your RC vehicle is powered off and stable before beginning installation.
2. Remove Existing Wheels: Carefully remove the existing wheels from your RC vehicle. Note the orientation of any washers or spacers.
3. Hex Compatibility: Verify that your vehicle's axle hex is compatible with the 23mm hex of these wheels.
4. Mounting: Align the new CEN Racing GS287A wheels onto the axle hex. Secure them using the appropriate wheel nuts or fasteners provided with your vehicle. Ensure fasteners are tightened securely but do not overtighten.
5. Tire Mounting (if applicable): If you are mounting new tires onto these wheels, follow the tire manufacturer's instructions for proper bead seating and gluing (if required).
6. Final Check: After installation, manually spin each wheel to ensure free rotation and proper alignment.

Note: Always consult your specific RC vehicle's user manual for detailed instructions regarding wheel replacement and compatibility.

Operating Considerations

While these wheels are built for durability, proper operating practices can extend their lifespan and maintain performance:

• Surface Awareness: Avoid prolonged operation on extremely abrasive surfaces that can cause excessive wear to tires and wheels.
• Impact Avoidance: Minimize high-speed impacts with solid objects, which can damage wheel integrity.
• Balance: Ensure tires are properly balanced on the wheels to prevent vibrations and improve handling, especially at high speeds.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help preserve the appearance and structural integrity of your CEN Racing wheels:

• Cleaning: After use, clean the wheels to remove dirt, mud, and debris. A soft brush and mild soap with water can be used. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely to prevent water spots or corrosion on the gunmetal chrome finish.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the wheels for any signs of damage, cracks, or deformation. Check the hex area for wear.
• Fastener Check: Ensure all wheel nuts or fasteners remain tight before and after each operating session.
• Storage: Store wheels in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your CEN Racing wheels, consider the following:

• Wobbling Wheel:
  • Check if the wheel nut is securely tightened.
  • Inspect the wheel hex for damage or excessive wear.
  • Verify that the tire is properly seated on the wheel bead.
  • Check the vehicle's axle and bearings for any play or damage.
• Difficulty Mounting:
  • Ensure the wheel's 23mm hex is correctly aligned with the vehicle's axle hex.
  • Confirm that the wheel is compatible with your specific RC vehicle model.
• Cosmetic Wear (Chrome Finish):
  • Minor scratches or scuffs are normal with use. For deeper damage, replacement may be necessary for aesthetic reasons.
