Reliable slick tyres from Tamiya 50454 for 1/10 models

The Tamiya 50454 Racing Slick Tire Set is aimed at hobbyists who run on smooth circuits and need consistent grip.

Product highlights

Compatibility: Appropriate for many 1/10 scale RC chassis and body styles.
Dimensions: Inside diameter of 2 inches, outside diameter of 2.5 inches, and a width of 1 inch.
Performance: Built to enhance traction and produce smoother steering on even surfaces.
Installation: Use CA glue to secure the tyre to the wheel rim.

Will these tyres change the handling feel?

Yes, switching to slicks typically increases front and rear contact consistency, producing a more neutral, predictable handling balance on smooth surfaces.

Are they suitable for wet conditions?

These slick tyres are intended for dry, sealed surfaces. They are not designed to disperse water, so wet conditions will reduce grip significantly.

How to inspect for wear?

Look for glazing, flat spots or uneven edges after runs. Replace tyres showing significant surface hardening or damage to maintain consistent lap times.

What glue should I use?

CA glue is recommended for secure bonding to rims; ensure surfaces are clean and use a small amount for even coverage.
