Summary of the 17mm Mini 4WD aluminium rollers

The Tamiya Mini 4WD 17mm Aluminum Ball Race Rollers (Ringless) in red are an upgrade aimed at improving corner stability and reducing energy loss. They are a good choice for racers focused on consistent lap performance.

Performance characteristics and compatibility

These aluminium ball race rollers are designed to roll with minimal resistance thanks to the ringless format. That supports smoother tracking and quicker recovery from turns. They are compatible with major Tamiya chassis families such as MS, MA, AR and VS.

Race day advantages and setup advice

By cutting friction and stabilising lateral movement, the 17mm rollers help maintain speed through sequences of bends. They work well when matched with fine-tuned weight placement and moderate suspension adjustments to maximise grip and response.

They are compatible with MS, MA, AR and VS chassis types, though you should verify shaft length and spacer placement for your build.
Keep bearings clean and apply a light drop of low-viscosity oil when required; avoid heavy greases that slow rotation.
They reduce rolling drag rather than change tyre scrub, so tyre wear is mostly unchanged, but handling changes may alter contact patterns slightly.
Their lower friction helps conserve speed over long runs, making them a sensible option for longer format races with many turns.
