Improve corner control on Mini Cooper M-Chassis

The Tamiya 53204 M-Chassis Sponge Inserts are a simple upgrade for Tamiya Mini Cooper models and many HPI mini super radials, helping tyres maintain a consistent footprint through corners. The insert's sponge body reduces tyre deformation under load, which leads to steadier steering and more repeatable lap times for serious hobbyists.

Key advantages of the Tamiya 53204 sponge inserts

Compatibility: Sized for Tamiya Mini Cooper wheels and compatible with HPI mini super radials sharing the same internal sizing.
Material: A resilient sponge that balances longevity with the compliance needed for grip.
Functionality: Delivers improved tyre grip and lateral stability for accurate driving lines.
Quantity: Supplied as four inserts, one per wheel for a complete set.

Are these compatible with vintage Mini Cooper shells and newer variants?

Compatibility relates to the wheel, not the shell. If the wheel dimensions match the insert size, they will work across model years and styles.

Will inserts change my car's corner entry or exit balance?

Inserts typically increase front or rear grip depending on fitment, so small setup tweaks to toe or camber may be needed to restore your preferred balance.

How should I store spare inserts to keep them usable?

Keep spares in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and chemicals; storing them flat helps avoid deformation before use.
