Blue Reston Sponge Tyres from Tamiya for Mini 4WD

The Tamiya Reston blue sponge tyres are an effective tuning part for Mini 4WD racers seeking extra traction. Their softer sponge surface increases tyre contact and helps maintain a secure line through bends.

Design Intent and Fitment

Engineered with handling in mind, the sponge compound improves grip without forcing major chassis changes. These tyres are compatible with most Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis, making them a flexible option for track tuning.

Race Application and Setup Advice

Best used where cornering stability is a priority, the Reston sponge tyres let both newcomers and experienced tuners adjust balance and corner speed with confidence. They are suitable for fine-tuning setups on technical circuits.

Usually no. The extra grip helps cornering rather than requiring gear changes, though track layout and motor choice can influence final gearing decisions.
Yes, they are useful for both practice and competition on tracks where grip is a limiting factor, but always check parc ferme or event rules on allowed parts.
Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and solvents to prevent the sponge from drying out or degrading.
