Get Better Turn-In with Tamiya 51483 - RM-01 Sponge Tyres

The Tamiya 51483 - RM-01 Front Sponge Tyres are tailored for the RM-01 chassis, providing steady traction on carpet and asphalt layouts. These front tyres help drivers dial in steering feel without unpredictable snap or fade.

Why Choose Tamiya 51483 - RM-01 Front Sponges

Optimal Grip: The sponge compound gives controlled bite on smooth race surfaces, improving corner entry stability.
Durable Design: The sponge construction is resilient under repeated running and keeps a consistent contact patch for longer stints.
Easy Installation: Comes with 11x139mm double-sided tape for quick, secure mounting to compatible RM-01 rims.

Do these work better on carpet or asphalt?

They are designed to perform well on both carpet and smooth asphalt. Small setup tweaks such as toe or camber adjustments can favour one surface over the other.

Is any special rim prep needed?

Clean the rim face and apply the supplied 11x139mm tape evenly. Ensure the tape edges are pressed down to avoid peeling during runs.

Can I glue these instead of using tape?

Tape is the intended attachment method, but if you prefer permanent mounting, use an adhesive compatible with sponge materials and rim plastics. Test on a spare tyre first.
