How do these DU-BRO wheels perform on grass vs paved runways?
These wheels are designed to work well on both grass and paved runways. The treaded foam provides traction on grass, while the low-bounce construction helps absorb impacts on harder surfaces like asphalt. Many RC pilots have used DU-BRO captive air wheels on their airplanes for years.

Are these wheels suitable for other RC models?
While primarily designed for RC aircraft, the 2.5-inch size and foam construction can work on some large RC cars or buggies if the axle size matches. Check your model's axle diameter before use—this product does not specify axle bore size.
