These front tyres are made as a scale replacement for the Associated RC 18T platform. The narrow radial rubber profile is paired with a 30g foam insert to keep the tyre profile stable and provide consistent steering input at the front axle.
The product purpose is to fit the front position of the Associated RC 18T and reduce front contact patch width for more precise steering on road and sprint circuits. The rubber compound and radial form aim to deliver repeatable traction while you adjust toe and steering settings.
Fitting advice: mount to the correct Associated RC 18T front rim, centre the 30g insert, and glue or secure as per your wheel build practice. Check bead seating and balance after mounting and again following a few runs to confirm insert location.
Tuning notes: use these narrow radials to achieve sharper turn-in and less tramlining on tight tracks, or when you want to make small incremental front-end setup changes without changing rear behaviour significantly.
