Precision handling with Tamiya 15288 JR RC Reston Sponge Tire - Narrow Black

The Tamiya 15288 JR RC Reston Sponge Tire - Narrow Black is a purpose-built option for tuners who want crisper handling on compact circuits. Crafted from Reston sponge, these narrow tyres strike a balance between grip and durability on typical race surfaces. They are well suited for riders tweaking setups for sharper corner response and steadier exit speeds.

Compatibility and intended use

Designed to work with many Tamiya Mini 4WD narrow wheel setups, these sponge tyres are a flexible upgrade for club racers and hobbyists. The reduced cross-section lowers drag and supports quicker acceleration while improving directional stability through bends. That makes them useful where precise handling matters most.

Practical racing effects

On technical tracks the JR RC Reston sponge tyre helps you stick to the racing line with more confidence, especially in tight chicanes. The plain black aesthetic keeps the model looking tidy while delivering tangible handling benefits for lap time improvement.

They fit standard narrow wheel axles used on many Tamiya Mini 4WD kits, but confirm your wheel width and axle size before fitting.
Most users rely on a snug press-fit, but if you plan aggressive runs or jumps, a small amount of tyre-safe glue helps prevent slippage.
They perform best on smooth to medium-grip track surfaces where sponge compounds can provide consistent traction through corners.
Replacement depends on usage, but inspect for flattening or uneven wear after several race sessions and swap when performance drops.
