Quick look at the Tamiya 15545 tyre and wheel set

The Tamiya 15545 kit combines hard, small-diameter low-profile tyres and carbon dish wheels made for Super X and XX chassis. This pairing reduces body hop and gives a more planted feel on straights and fast sections.

Compatibility and design highlights

Compatible with Mini 4WD PRO and most standard Mini 4WD cars using small-diameter tyres, the carbon-reinforced dishes retain shape under load to help stabilise the car during high-speed passes.

Behaviour on course and tuning ideas

Because the tyres use a hard compound, they provide lower traction which can help in situations where sliding is preferred for cornering. The grey finish looks neat and the firm fit requires deliberate seating to ensure a secure install.

Practical advice before fitting

Some chassis or body setups may need slight trimming or spacer changes to clear the wider wheel profile. Always trial-fit components and confirm there is no rubbing before racing.

On very grippy surfaces the hard compound will feel less sticky and can reduce cornering grip. They are better when lower traction helps control oversteer.
No special tools are required. A firm, even push by hand or using a soft press tool is enough to seat the tyre on the wheel due to the hard compound.
Spin the wheel assembly slowly and move the suspension through its travel to check for rubbing against the chassis, body or stabiliser parts. Trim as needed for smooth rotation.
