Overview of the Tamiya 70145 Narrow Tire Set

The Tamiya 70145 Narrow Tire Set is tailored for makers and hobbyists working on STEM or small model car projects. Built for flexibility, this set ships with alternate hubs so you can match different shaft types without swapping tires.

Construction Details and Shaft Fit

The tyres measure 58mm in diameter with a 16mm section width, creating a compact on-road profile well suited to smooth surfaces. Two hub styles are included: a hex hub that fits many Tamiya gearboxes and a hub for round shaft setups, giving straightforward compatibility across common drive arrangements.

Where to Use These Tires

Use these tyres on model cars, classroom robotics rigs, or light prototyping platforms where a narrow contact patch is preferred. The durable moulding and hub options make the set practical for repeated test runs and classroom handling.

The kit provides hubs for hex shafts and for round shafts, so you can fit the tyres to a range of small gearboxes and motor shafts used in model builds.
They are optimised for on-road conditions and smooth surfaces; short outdoor runs on pavement or packed surfaces are fine but rough terrain will accelerate wear.
Ensure the hub is fully seated on the shaft and check for play before use. Light thread locker on grub screws can help keep hex hubs secure during test runs.
