The wheel finish that a Lotus Elise deserves
When working on the aesthetic tuning of a slot car, the small details are what separate a well-crafted model from a truly outstanding one. These hubcaps for the Lotus Elise (ref. AV20758) are designed to fit a 16.5 mm rim, providing that clean finish true to the original that every discerning enthusiast seeks.
Features and compatibility
- Compatible with 16.5 mm rims.
- Specifically designed for the Lotus Elise in slot scale.
- The set does not include the brake disc or caliper.
Function and performance
The main function of these hubcaps is aesthetic: they cover the wheel hub and complete the wheel assembly with a look more faithful to the real vehicle. In a Lotus Elise, where purity of lines and lightness are hallmarks, paying attention to this type of detail makes sense both in a display case and on a club track where the level of visual preparation matters.
Installation and considerations
Installation is straightforward on the 16.5 mm rim. Before installing them, it is advisable to check that the rim is clean and in good condition to ensure a proper fit. Remember that the brake disc and caliper must be purchased separately if you wish to replicate the complete brake assembly of the original vehicle.
