Precision Springs to Tune Your XV-02

For model drivers wanting precise suspension control, the Tamiya 22051 Setting Spring Set helps tailor the XV-02 chassis. The set contains three distinct spring rates - soft, medium and hard - allowing targeted tuning for handling and stability.

Rate Descriptions and Expected Effects

The kit includes six springs in total, providing tuned options for common driving scenarios:

Soft (Black): Adds compliance and improved traction on uneven or loose surfaces.
Medium (Gold): The balanced, factory-style choice for a wide range of conditions.
Hard (Silver): Reduces body roll on smooth, fast tracks for crisper turn-in.

Compatibility and Size Information

Manufactured to suit the XV-02 chassis, the springs are straightforward to fit and do not require modification. Each spring measures 40mm so they work with the original shock setup and help you refine handling without extra parts.

How many springs are supplied and what are the colours?

The set contains six springs: two of each rate. Colours are black for soft, gold for medium and silver for hard, which helps quick identification during setup.

Will changing springs affect cornering balance?

Yes, spring rate influences both roll and weight transfer. Softer springs increase compliance and can boost front grip, while stiffer springs reduce roll and can stabilise the car at higher speed.

Any installation checks to perform after fitting?

After fitting, confirm springs sit correctly on the retainers, ensure shock pistons move freely and check that ride height and travel match expected values. Re-test on track and adjust if needed.
