JConcepts arrived at Beachline Raceway for the 2024 Florida Carpet Championships with fresh, new items that carry a hint of inspiration from the past. The new Pioneer wheels for the 2WD buggy class boast unique features and aesthetics previously unseen. Inspired by a 1989 Masami Hirosaka replica, Jason Ruona envisioned recreating an iconic variation. The pop-out panels of the Pioneer wheels introduce a fresh look while maintaining the correct offset and mounting characteristics.

Distinctive outer ribs fall between the sectional panels, forming a radial ring around the wheel nut area. These ribs connect the four screw locations, representing adaptors reminiscent of the golden age of RC racing. The Pioneer wheels are designed for both show and performance; racers looking for a fresh appearance, high-end performance, and a range of color options will turn to these wheels in 2025.
The dimensions of the wheels match the IFMAR World Championship-winning Mono wheels, featuring an industry-standard offset and durable construction. Reinforced inner ribs and a robust 12mm hex area complete this design. Each 4-pack of wheels includes decorative screws and will be available in popular colors, including bright white and fluorescent yellow. Additionally, JConcepts will introduce retro pink and stealth black colors as extra options.
