Why Upgraded BSA Racing Wheels Are So Important

Looking for the fastest wheels available? Choose these precision BSA racing wheels, machined by a nationally ranked professional Pinewood Derby racer.

 

These wheels are significantly lighter than stock wheels, resulting in quicker starts and optimal weight distribution. They’re also more aerodynamic than stock wheels, leading to a decrease in drag.

 

If your rules don’t prohibit wheel modification, then a set of Turbo Ultimate Wheels can get you down the track faster than any other wheel!

 

Lighter Wheels for Faster Starts

Wheels are one of the most important components in any Pinewood Derby build. Even a well-designed car can lose valuable speed if the wheels are heavy, inconsistent, or not properly balanced.

 

Turbo Derby’s professionally prepared wheels are designed to reduce friction, improve consistency, and help builders get more performance from their cars. Because they begin as official BSA wheels, they retain the authentic appearance required by many race rules while delivering pro-level refinements.

 

One of the biggest advantages of these BSA racing wheels is weight reduction. Lighter wheels require less energy to get moving, which can contribute to quicker acceleration as the car leaves the starting gate.

 

Reducing wheel weight also gives builders more flexibility when positioning ballast in the body of the car. This makes it easier to fine-tune balance and center of gravity for improved track performance.

 

Precision-Crafted for Consistency

Turbo Ultimate Wheels have the following features:

  • All wheels from the same mold for consistency (aka mold matched)
  • A 10-20x decrease in both radial AND lateral runout
  • ALL surfaces contacting the axle and track are machined concentric to the wheel bore
  • The double step from the outer hub was removed, reducing contact with the axle head
  • The inner hub is tapered to reduce contact with the car body
  • Both inner and outer tread edges are sharpened to reduce contact surface with the track
  • Weigh 1.70-1.75 grams each
  • 1.10-1.12 inches in diameter
  • All official lettering remains on the inside and outside of the wheel

 

To get the most speed out of your BSA Ultimate wheels, prepare them with a Turbo Derby Wheel Prep Kit.

 

Whether you’re building with a child for a local youth race or competing at a more advanced level, these wheels and rims provide a proven upgrade trusted by experienced racers.
