Adjustable Low-Profile Tires for Mini 4WD Tuning

The Tamiya 15397 JR Low-Profile Offset Tread Tires give Mini 4WD racers a practical way to change handling characteristics on the fly. By altering tread width you can dial in stability or cornering grip to suit specific tracks and setups.

Features and Wheel Compatibility

  • Adjustable Tread Width: The tires can be set to narrow (53.4mm) or wide (63.4mm) configurations, allowing up to a 10mm variance in total tread width.
  • Performance Impact: Narrow treads enhance stability in straight lines but reduce cornering traction, while wide treads improve cornering grip at the expense of straight-line stability.
  • Compatibility: Ideal for Mini 4WDs utilizing low-height wheels, specifically compatible with Tamiya items 15358 and 15359.

Setup and Tuning Notes

These offset tread tyres provide useful tuning range for racers who want to refine handling. Small adjustments to tread width can noticeably change the car's behaviour, making them a practical upgrade for race-day setup work and club practice.

Ordered quite a lot of stuff from these guys & the packaging & condition of the items delivered was excellent. The service is second to none & I will definitely buy from these again.
Yes. Fitting is done on compatible low-height wheels by repositioning the tyre to the desired offset. A basic wheel press or careful hand fitting is usually sufficient.
Choose narrow for tracks that reward high straight-line speed and predictability, and switch to wide when you need increased lateral grip for technical, corner-heavy layouts.
Regular checks for wear and correct seating on the rim are enough. Clean debris after rough runs and inspect for uneven wear when swapping widths.
