These front tires are a scale replacement made to suit the Associated RC 18T platform. The narrow radial profile and rubber compound work with the supplied 30g foam insert to stabilise the tyre shape and deliver predictable steering feel at the front axle.
Designed specifically for the front position on the Associated RC 18T chassis, the narrower contact patch sharpens steering precision for on-road and short-track sprint layouts. The radial construction helps maintain consistent grip while you tune toe and steering geometry.
Fitting notes: mount the tyre to the correct Associated RC 18T front rim, position the 30g insert centrally, and glue or secure according to your wheel assembly routine. Verify bead seating and balance after mounting and check again after a few runs to confirm insert placement.
Tuning use: choose these narrow radial fronts when you need crisper turn-in and less tramlining on tight circuits, or when making small front-end setup changes without affecting rear traction substantially.
