Single R11 truck wheels

The R11 wheels from Mitoos redefine the performance of slot trucks on speed tracks

When it comes to squeezing every tenth on the track with a slot truck, the wheel makes the difference. Mitoos knows this, which is why it has developed the R11 model: a front wheel for trucks specifically designed for competition on speed circuits, where stiffness, mass balance, and dimensional precision are crucial.

Features and Highlights

• Material: machined aluminium, providing high structural stiffness, low wear, and notable lightness compared to parts made from other materials.
• 5-spoke star design: an aesthetic and functional innovation in the slot world that reduces rotating mass without compromising strength.
• Total outer diameter: 17.7 mm.
• Base diameter: 15.3 mm.
• Width: 8.5 mm.
• Through hole for 2.38 mm (3/32″) axles, the most widespread standard in competition slot racing.
• Secured with DIN 913 M2.5×3 allen screw: the 2.5 metric ensures a firmer and more durable grip than smaller metric systems, translating into greater long-term safety without unwanted loosening.

Compatibility

The R11 wheels are compatible with all raid slot tyres on the market and are specially optimised to work alongside the Mitoos S3 tyres (reference M003), with which they form a balanced and high-performance set. If you are already using the Mitoos consumables range, these wheels complete the setup coherently.

Assembly and Preparation

Assembly is straightforward thanks to the standard 2.38 mm (3/32″) through hole. The DIN 913 M2.5×3 allen screw secures the wheel to the axle with a robust grip: the choice of the 2.5 metric over the usual M2 in other systems is not coincidental, as it offers a larger contact surface and prevents the wheel from spinning freely under load conditions or prolonged vibrations during long sessions.

We recommend checking the centring of the wheel before mounting the tyre and using a gauge or the true-ing plate itself to ensure that the wheel set runs without eccentricity.

Common Mistakes

• Not tightening the allen screw sufficiently: with the 2.5 metric, the grip is greater, but it is advisable to check periodically during the first sessions.
• Mounting tyres that are not suitable for the wheel dimensions: always check that the chosen tyre fits correctly to the base diameter of 15.3 mm.
• Confusing the front R11 wheels with other references in the Mitoos range intended for rear axles or different scales.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many wheels are included in the set?

The CXM068 pack includes 2 R11 truck wheels, corresponding to the front axle.

Which tyres are compatible with the R11 wheels?

They are compatible with all raid slot tyres on the market. Mitoos especially recommends them with their S3 tyres (reference M003) for the best performance and dimensional fit.

What type of axle are they designed for?

The R11 wheels have a through hole for 2.38 mm axles, equivalent to the 3/32″ standard, the most common in competition slot racing.

Why use a DIN 913 M2.5×3 allen screw instead of M2?

The 2.5 metric provides a larger contact surface on the axle, resulting in a stronger grip and greater safety during long sessions or under high-demand conditions on the track.

Are they valid for competition?

Yes. The R11 model is designed for speed track and competition, combining high-stiffness machined aluminium with a star design that minimises rotating mass.

Can I use them on the rear axle of a slot truck?

These wheels are classified by Mitoos as front truck wheels for speed. Check the specific references in the Mitoos range if you need wheels for the rear axle.
