Refine Front Tyre Performance with Tamiya 51448

The Tamiya 51448 RC DN01 Inner Sponge is a practical component that improves front tyre seating for 2WD buggies, promoting steadier steering feel. It is particularly useful for drivers wanting a more consistent contact patch during cornering.

Models and Tyre Pairing

This insert fits DN-01, DT-02 and TRF201 chassis and pairs with Item 51207 Off-Road Wide Grooved Front Tires (60/19). By supporting the tyre profile, it reduces inconsistent flex and helps maintain traction when negotiating turns.

Practical Installation Tips

Place the sponge evenly inside the tyre and check bead seating before use to prevent uneven wear. A careful fit will help the tyre run true and extend predictable handling between services.

Fitting is straightforward for most hobbyists. Work slowly to press the sponge into place and check the tyre bead for even seating to avoid imbalance.
On hard surfaces the insert helps keep the tyre shape stable which can improve predictability and steering accuracy at speed.
You can reuse the sponge if it remains intact and not crushed. Inspect it for tears or permanent deformation and replace if the foam no longer holds shape.
