Porsche CX1030P Wheels: the hassle-free wheel replacement for easy installation
This set of 4 wheels is specifically designed for Porsche bodies in slot scale, and comes ready to install with everything needed included in the package. A direct replacement that saves time on the workbench and ensures no parts are missing for assembly.
Contents of the set
- 4 wheels specific for Porsche models
- 1 set of 3-arm butterfly nuts for securing the wheels
- 1 set of nuts for complete assembly
Important: this set no longer includes the 2-arm butterfly nuts that were included in previous versions. If you need them, please consult them as a separate accessory.
Assembly and preparation
The 3-arm butterfly nut system provides a solid grip and precise centring of the wheel on the axle, which is essential to avoid vibrations and achieve a smooth run on track. Correctly mounting this set is straightforward: place the wheel, adjust the butterfly nut, and tighten the nut with a firm grip but without over-tightening to avoid damaging the plastic of the hub.
Before installing the tyres, check that the wheels rotate freely and do not rub against any chassis components. A fine sanding of the outer profile can improve the tyre fit if a more precise adjustment is required.
Common mistakes
- Over-tightening the nuts: this can deform the hub or make future disassembly difficult.
- Mixing 2-arm and 3-arm butterfly nuts on the same axle: this creates imbalances. Always use the same type on both wheels of the same axle.
- Not checking the centring before gluing the tyre: a small misalignment is amplified at high speeds.
Frequently asked questions
Does this set include tyres?
No, the set contains only the 4 wheels, the 3-arm butterfly nuts, and the nuts. Tyres must be purchased separately.
Why no longer include 2-arm butterfly nuts?
The manufacturer has updated the pack contents. The 3-arm butterfly nuts provide a larger support surface and a more stable centring, thus replacing the 2-arm ones in this version.
Can I still use 2-arm butterfly nuts from previous versions?
Technically they are compatible if the axle diameter matches, but we recommend using the 3-arm butterfly nuts included in this set to ensure balance and take advantage of the adjustment for which these wheels have been designed.
Which Porsche models are these wheels compatible with?
The specification does not specify the exact body models. Please consult us before placing your order if you have any doubts about compatibility with your specific model.
