Fit 2.2in Tyres to Your YZ-870C Chassis

The Yokomo YZ-821-2 front wheels allow owners to swap out the older 1.9-inch wheel fitment on the YZ-870C and fit modern 2.2-inch tyres. This upgrade helps you access up-to-date tyre designs for better track performance.

Why Choose 2.2in Wheels

Upgrading to the YZ-821-2 gives a larger contact patch and access to a wider range of tyre compounds, useful for different track surfaces from loose soil to indoor carpet. The wheel keeps the original hub geometry while increasing tyre diameter.

Setup Hints and Maintenance

Expect to revisit your gear ratio after changing tyre diameter and consider a smaller pinion to maintain speed characteristics. The wheels arrive without air vents so you can drill or ream holes to suit tyre seating and ventilation preferences.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some Yokomo items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will the larger tyres affect steering feel?

Yes, 2.2in tyres typically change steering bite and mid-corner behaviour; small suspension tweaks often restore the balance you prefer.

Are vent holes necessary for tyre performance?

Vent holes are not required but can help tyre seating and internal air escape on some tyre compounds. Add them carefully with a drill or taper reamer if desired.

Do these wheels change the wheel offset or track width?

The YZ-821-2 is designed to preserve mounting and hub position, so major offset or track width changes are unlikely, but always test fit to confirm clearance.
