Set Up Your Touring Car with Tamiya 53955 Mesh Slicks

The Tamiya 53955 5-spoke mesh slick tyres are built for 1/10 scale touring cars that spend time on polished track surfaces. Chrome-finished wheel centres and a hard rubber tyre ensure consistent performance lap after lap.

Core Attributes of These Mesh Slicks

Compatibility: Engineered for Tamiya 1/10 scale touring chassis and wheel hubs.
Construction: Sturdy chrome-plated plastic wheels combined with hard rubber tyres for extended use.
Design: The 5-spoke mesh layout gives a tidy, competition-ready appearance.

Where They Excel

These slicks are ideal for club circuits and indoor racing. The hard compound reduces frequent replacements, making them a sensible option for regular track sessions.

Can I run these on damp outdoor surfaces?

They are not designed for wet or slippery conditions; traction drops on damp surfaces so choose a different tyre for wet runs.

Will these fit non-Tamiya hubs?

They are made for Tamiya's hub pattern, but adapters are available for other setups; check hub compatibility before fitting.

How do I keep the chrome looking good?

Wipe wheel centres with a soft cloth and mild cleaner after sessions to remove grime; avoid harsh solvents that can dull the finish.

Is balancing needed for these wheels?

Light balancing can improve high-speed stability, but many club drivers run them without elaborate balancing when used on smooth tracks.
