This belted slick rubber tyre comes as a 2pcs set and is intended as a replacement option within the GT500 hard tyre family for 1/12 on-road models. The belted build reduces tread distortion versus plain rubber tyres, maintaining a more uniform contact patch during lateral loads.
Use these tyres only in GT500 hard tyre applications and compatible 1/12 wheel arrangements; always confirm rim inner diameter and how the tyre mounts on your rim before attempting installation. Standard mounting procedure applies: seat the tyre on the rim, verify the bead seating, and ensure the internal belt lies flat without kinks.
Tuning guidance: these belted hard tyres lower rolling resistance and give a steadier transition at the limit, which helps when testing suspension and alignment changes on smooth layouts. Adjust ride height, camber and toe rather than tyre pressure to refine balance for this tyre type, and monitor wear patterns for setup feedback.
