Small Wheel and Short Shaft Upgrade for Tamiya Mini 4WD

The Tamiya 15253 Small Diameter Wheel & Short Shaft kit is engineered for tuners and racers seeking more precise handling from their Mini 4WD models. Manufactured for reliable fitment, these components help when negotiating demanding track layouts.

Compatibility and Mechanical Advantages

Smaller wheels reduce effective ride height and aid stability in corners, making tight line changes easier to manage. The supplied short shaft is compatible with many Tamiya Mini 4WD chassis arrangements, offering straightforward integration for customised setups.

Practical Impact on Racing Performance

Installing this wheel and shaft set tends to improve turn-in and quicken recovery between corners, which can be useful for shaving lap time on technical circuits. The precision engineering promotes consistent on-track behaviour under race conditions.

Smaller wheels change the effective final drive, improving acceleration but reducing top speed; consider adjusting sprockets or gears to suit your race format.
Short shafts are made to withstand normal racing loads, but routine inspection for wear and straightness is recommended to avoid handling issues.
Check wheel alignment, ensure axle bearings rotate freely, and adjust ride height and weight distribution incrementally to find the best balance for your track.
