Better Grip for Tamiya F1 Circuit Cars

The Tamiya 53129 rear soft sponge tyres are an effective upgrade for Tamiya F1 models aiming for greater rear traction on smooth circuits. These soft tyres help deliver steadier exits and more confidence through high speed bends.

Core Benefits

  • Soft Compound: The sponge composition increases adhesion for improved stability when accelerating out of corners.
  • Pre-trued Design: Supplied trued and ready to mount so you can fit them quickly before a race.

Contents of the Pack

  • Two rear foam tyres
  • Four pieces of double-sided tape for mounting
  • Installation instructions

Practical Setup Tips

While double-sided tape is included and useful for quick fitting, applying tyre glue is the preferred method for a secure bond that withstands hard driving and extended race use.

They are optimised for smooth, low-grip circuits and indoor layouts. On rough or high-grip surfaces performance will differ.
Tape adhesion weakens after removal. For repeated fits consider fresh double-sided tape or use glue for a long-term mount.
Expect increased rear traction which may reduce oversteer. Adjust front roll stiffness or steering trim if necessary to restore preferred balance.
