Bring the YZ-870C Up to 2.2in Tyre Standards

The Yokomo YZ-821-2 front wheels let owners fit 2.2-inch tyres to a YZ-870C chassis, replacing the older 1.9-inch fitment common in vintage kits. This change broadens tyre choice and refreshes handling characteristics for modern layouts.

More Tyre Options, Better Grip

Using the YZ-821-2 opens access to current tyre designs and compounds so you can tune traction for surfaces like packed dirt or indoor carpet. The wheel keeps the YZ-870C hub style but accepts a larger tyre diameter for improved contact patch.

Installation Notes and Tips

After switching to 2.2in tyres, reassess your pinion gear to keep RPMs and acceleration in check. The wheels are shipped without pre-cut vents so you can drill ventilation where you prefer to suit cooling or tyre seating.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Can I use these wheels on other Yokomo models?

They are engineered for the YZ-870C specification; some other Yokomo hubs may fit but check hub diameter and mounting details before assuming compatibility.

Will tyre fitment affect my handling balance?

Yes, moving to 2.2in tyres can change steering bite and stability. You may need small suspension or toe adjustments to restore preferred balance.

How do I make sure tyres seat correctly?

Mount tyres carefully, use a thin tyre glue bead, and rotate the tyre while curing. If you add vent holes, check that glue and bead remain secure around any drilled area.
