Rear Traction Upgrade with Tamiya 53747 Sponge Tyres

Designed for 1/10 scale glow-powered models, the Tamiya 53747 rear sponge tyres enhance rear-end traction and make throttle inputs more controllable. They arrive pre-mounted to wheels to speed up tyre changes between sessions.

Predictable Performance Across Conditions

The sponge compound provides a reliable contact patch across a range of surface grips and temperatures, delivering consistent handling through practice and races. Pre-fitted tyres reduce setup fuss in the pits.

Selecting Compound Hardness

The hardness index indicates grip versus wear: lower numbers mean softer, tackier rubber for more traction while higher numbers increase durability. Match the compound to the circuit and your driving approach for best results.

Yes, when you choose the appropriate hardness they are well suited to club circuits where consistent handling is important.
Some drivers prefer a light tyre prep depending on surface type, but these are ready to run out of the box due to their pre-mounted setup.
On smooth, high-grip tracks a softer compound can help reduce lap times by improving cornering traction, provided you manage tyre wear.
Keep them clean of debris and check for flat spots; rotate and replace when performance falls off to keep handling consistent.
