Give Your 1/10 On-Roader a Tamiya 54551 OP.1551 Upgrade

For modellers who favour a refined finish, the Tamiya 54551 OP.1551 6-spoke two-piece wheels feature a red metal-plated face that enhances the look of 1/10 scale on-road cars while staying compatible with typical touring car running gear.

What to Expect from These Tamiya Wheels

Design: Six distinct spokes with a red plated cap create a standout aesthetic that complements touring car bodies and paint schemes.
Compatibility: The 26mm width matches common 1/10 touring tyre sizes so swapping tyres is straightforward.
Durability: Manufactured to hobby standards to offer steady performance for club days and practice sessions.

Simple Fit and Setup Notes

Ensure wheel nuts or screws are torqued evenly and check tyre seating before hitting the track. Verify clearance at the wheel arches and confirm hub alignment for best handling.

Are these wheels suitable for carpet and tarmac surfaces?

Yes, the wheel will accept 26mm tyres used on both carpet and tarmac. Choose tyre compound and tread to match the surface for optimal grip.

Can I run foam tyres on these wheels?

Foam tyres sized to 26mm should be compatible, but confirm the tyre's internal profile and how it secures to the wheel before racing.

How do I maintain the plate finish?

Wipe with a soft cloth after use to remove grime and avoid abrasive cleaners that could dull the red plating.
