If you want to sharpen handling on your Tamiya F1 series model, the Tamiya 53129 rear soft foam tires deliver higher traction for tight cornering on smooth layouts. These rear units are aimed at racers who need predictable grip and consistent performance lap after lap.

Performance Highlights

Soft Compound: The sponge formula is tuned to produce strong traction and improved cornering feel during aggressive driving.
Pre-trued Design: Supplied trued for quick mounting so you spend less time preparing and more time on track.

What the Pack Contains

Four pieces of double-sided tape for mounting
Installation instructions

Mounting and Setup Advice

The included double-sided tape will hold the tires for casual running, but applying dedicated tyre glue gives a more permanent bond and helps prevent slippage under hard acceleration or high cornering loads.

Will these fit older Tamiya F1 chassis?

They are compatible with most Tamiya F1 series rear hubs, but check wheel width and hub spacing on vintage chassis before fitting.

Should I use the supplied tape or glue?

Tape is fine for practice, but tyre glue is recommended for race use to keep the tyre secure under load.

How do these affect steering balance?

Expect increased rear traction which can reduce oversteer; you may need to tweak front toe or differential settings to rebalance handling.
