Track-Focused Summary

The Tamiya 15507 HG LR Low Rebound Sponge Tires are aimed at Mini 4WD owners seeking steadier handling on large diameter wheels. They reduce lift and oscillation to keep the car predictable through sequences.

Material and Behaviour

The sponge compound is formulated for lower rebound than typical Reston sponge, helping to dampen sudden bounces after landings. The reduced energy return improves wheel contact and cornering stability while remaining lightweight.

Compatibility Advice

These tyres suit Mini 4WD and Mini 4WD PRO cars that accept large diameter, narrow tyres. Expect to make minor body or mudguard tweaks on some shells to ensure a clean fit.

Are these best for high speed tracks or technical layouts?

They work well on both, but their anti-bounce properties shine on technical sections where repeated landings or uneven surfaces can upset the car.

Do I need special wheels to run them?

No special wheels are required beyond those designed for large diameter narrow tyres, but confirm axle clearance and wheel hub size before fitting.

How do they affect cornering?

By lowering rebound, the tyres reduce hop and chatter, which helps maintain a consistent contact patch for more predictable corner exits.

Should I pair them with specific setups?

They pair well with stiffer suspensions or lower ride heights where controlling rebound improves lap times. Test different setups to find the right balance.
