Precision Machined 5-Spoke Rim for Savage 25 Chassis

The HSA-022A/S2 is a CNC-friendly aluminium 5-spoke rim designed to suit the HPI Savage 25 chassis. Supplied as a matched pair, these rims offer a metal alternative to stock wheels with improved structural rigidity and a machined surface finish.

Targeted at experienced hobbyists and tuners, the aluminium construction impacts rotating mass and thermal transfer at the hub, factors to consider during tuning. The rims are finished in silver and intended for scale RC applications only.

Installation uses conventional Savage wheel removal steps: remove the wheel nut, separate a glued tyre or loosen beadlock screws, replace the rim, and reinstall original hardware. Verify wheel hex engagement and re-torque after initial operation to secure fitment under dynamic loads.

When optimizing vehicle dynamics, factor in the change in rotational inertia and consider incremental adjustments to slipper clutch or gear ratios to maintain power delivery and handling balance on the Savage 25 platform.

Specifications

  • Item: HPI Savage 25 Chassis Aluminum 5-Spoke Rim (1 pair)
  • Material: Aluminum
  • Model Number: HSA-022A/S2
  • Compatibility: For HPI Savage 25 chassis

For performance-oriented builds, these rims provide a durable, machined wheel option; always confirm fitment and re-torque after testing for predictable operation.

How does aluminium affect wheel inertia and handling?

Aluminium increases rim mass relative to some plastics, raising rotational inertia. This can smooth high-speed stability but may reduce initial acceleration; balance changes can be compensated with gearing or slipper adjustment.

What checks should I perform after first installation?

Confirm hub hex seating, check wheel nut torque, and inspect tyre mounting. Reassess after a short run and retorque hardware to maintain secure fitment under vibration.

Are these rims compatible with beadlock systems?

Yes, these rims accommodate standard beadlock methods if your tyre and beadlock components match the rim design; otherwise glue mounting is an acceptable alternative.

Can I expect improved impact resistance over plastic?

Aluminium generally offers better resistance to deformation from impacts than thin plastics, but severe hits can still dent or crack aluminium; periodic inspection is advised for high-impact use.
