Fully Cowled 25th Anniversary Tamiya 95117 Edition

The Tamiya 95117 release pairs super hard tyres with subdued matte wheels to mark the Fully Cowled Mini 4WD 25th anniversary. The set aims to blend practical performance gains with a tidy, collector-style appearance for your racer.

Build and Compatibility Notes

Super hard tyres are designed to limit vertical bounce on typical race tracks, giving you steadier runs at speed. Matte wheels add a modern, low-shine look while keeping mass down. These components are compatible with many Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis types, making them suitable for custom builds and tuning projects.

Effect on Racing

Racers using super hard tyres will notice slower tread wear and steadier corner exits on smooth circuits. The lightweight matte wheels are mostly aesthetic, but their lower rotating mass can contribute to a small improvement in acceleration and lap consistency.

Yes, on well maintained plastic club tracks super hard tyres offer consistency and reduced wear, but test them in practice to confirm handling on your local layout.
Absolutely. The matte finish suits display builds where a subtle, modern look is preferred while still using authentic race-spec components.
Routine cleaning and inspection for flat spots is sufficient. Because they are harder, check hub seating and balance to avoid vibration at high speed.
