For drivers refining their setup, the Tamiya 51384 F104 sponge tires deliver a clear gain in grip and stability on smooth racing surfaces. These tires suit hobbyists who want crisper steering response and more consistent lap times.
Made for the Tamiya F104 chassis, the sponge compound used here is softer than Option Parts Item 54167. With an inner diameter of 44mm and a width of 30mm, the tires seat firmly on compatible wheels to maximise contact patch and handling.
Make sure each tire is evenly seated on the rim and check for any irregularities before running. Regular inspection and gentle cleaning will extend service life. These sponges perform best on smooth, prepared circuits where the softer compound can deliver consistent grip.
