Overview for Racers

The Tamiya 15504 kit contains large-diameter 5-spoke wheels matched with hard red slick tyres, made with Super X and Super XX chassis in mind. These parts are chosen to help improve velocity and straight-line stability on Mini 4WD tracks.

Compatibility with Super X/XX

Designed for Tamiya Super X and Super XX models, the wheels generally fit without extensive modification. Some body shells may require light trimming or altered mounts to ensure full clearance for the bigger diameter.

Performance on Smooth Circuits

Hard slick tyres minimise rolling resistance and suit smooth, fast track surfaces where uniform grip is available. The increased diameter aids in achieving higher top speeds on longer straights.

Custom Setup Options

Beyond basic fitment, racers integrate these wheels into broader setups with upgraded motors, gearing and shock tuning to match track demands and improve lap consistency.

Because the tyres are hard and slick, they typically offer predictable grip on smooth corners but may feel less forgiving on rough or dirty sections.
Minor body trimming is occasionally required to avoid contact with the larger wheels, especially on low-slung or narrow shells.
Pair these wheels with a motor and gear ratio tuned for higher top speed rather than quick acceleration to exploit the larger diameter benefit.
Store tyres away from direct sunlight and oils, on a flat surface if possible, to prevent deformation and preserve compound characteristics.
