Intro to JR 3-spoke ball-race rollers

The Tamiya 15161 JR 3-Spoke Ball-Race Rollers provide a sensible handling upgrade for Mini 4WD builders wanting firmer corner control. These 17mm aluminium rollers smooth transitions through bends and help keep the chassis stable during quick direction changes.

Construction and handling traits

Crafted from lightweight aluminium with a three-spoke pattern, these rollers resist wear while adding little weight. The supplied rubber rings act as vibration buffers, improving grip consistency across bumpy sections.

Where they work best

These rollers work with many Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis, offering adaptable fit for different layouts. They are effective for refining cornering balance on both club circuits and practice tracks.

Are these rollers easy to install?

Installation is straightforward for most Mini 4WD builds; basic tools are enough and they use standard 17mm roller fittings on compatible chassis.

Which tracks benefit most from these rollers?

Technical circuits with frequent corners and small jumps see the biggest benefit, as the rollers reduce bounce and help maintain a consistent line.

Can I run these with foam tyres?

Yes, foam or rubber tyres pair well; the reduced vibration from the rubber rings complements tyre grip to stabilise cornering.

Do I need extra spacers or parts?

Most standard setups do not require extra spacers, but confirm axle clearance and bumper spacing before final assembly.
