Review Mantis Worx adjustable offset wheels. Updated



Look at these! They look good!

These wheels are developed by Mantis Worx, and sold exlusevly by Reflex Racing.

The front wheels can be used in: -1 offset, 0 offset and + 1 offset.
the rear wheels can be used in -1 offset, 0, +1, +2 and + 3 offset
They come with a tool for adjusting.




The weight of these wheels total is 6 grams. Not as light as some plastic wheels, but lighter than every other Delrin or dish wheels.

They are super true, and very precise made. 
Diameter is almost the same as other wheels, but not exactly. The front wheels are slightly smaller, and the rear are slightly taller.

Test report will follow.

Testing results:
After some initial troubles (because of the diameter change)), these wheels really make me happy.
They hold up very good, and looks even better.
Not a single dent/ scratch in the Delrin after quite a few hard hits. A regular plastic wheel picks up a few dents really fast.

The offset adjustment are a nice thing, but i tend to almost every time ending up with the same offsets I always use. Regupol is making the setups we use very equal from track to track.

I had as mentioned earlier some initial problems with the diameter of the wheels. This made very small changes to my setup, but is not a problem when you set your car up for a new track. The only time i had these problems, was on my local permanent track, where I have been driving for 5 hours, two times a week for almost two years. Because of this the setup is a bit on the extreme side.
It only took this small change in the relative rideheight front to rear to mess this up.

After a couple of weeks of use, I can say that these are the best wheels ever. Hopefully they will last a long time.
